WARNING
• Engine parts that are in motion and unexpected
movement of a vehicle can injure or kill. When
working near moving engine parts, wear snug fit
clothing and keep hands and fingers away from
moving parts. Keep hoses and tools clear of moving
parts. Always stay clear of moving engine parts.
Hoses and tools can be thrown through the air if not
kept clear of moving engine parts. The unexpected
movement of a vehicle can injure or kill. When
working on vehicles always set the parking brake or
block the wheels.
• Avoid accidental fire and/or explosion. Do not smoke
near engine fuel and battery components.
NOTE:
The manufacturer declines any and all
responsibility for damage to vehicles or components if
said damage is the result of unskillful handling by the
operator or of failure to observe the basic safety rules
set forth in the instruction manual.
WARNING
Read Rules for Safe Operation and Instructions Carefully.
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS AND SAFETY
• Working in vicinity of a lead-acid battery is dangerous.
Batteries generate explosive gases during normal
battery operation. For this reason, it is of utmost
importance that each time before using your Portable
Power Source, you read this manual and follow the
instructions exactly.
WARNING
Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection,
when working with lead-acid batteries.
1. Use only attachments recommended or sold by
manufacturer. Use of non-recommended attachments
may result in fire, electric shock or injury.
2. Do not disassemble the Portable Power Source.
Take it to a qualified professional when service or
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result
in electric shock or fire.
3. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger
from outlet before attempting any maintenance
or cleaning.
4. Make sure someone is within range of your voice
or close enough to come to your aid when you
work with or near a lead-acid battery.
5. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby for
use if battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
If battery acid contacts skin or clothing wash
immediately with soap and water.
6. Avoid touching your eyes while working with a
battery. Acid particles (corrosion) may get into your
eyes! If acid enters your eye, immediately flood
eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes.
Get medical attention immediately.
7. Remove all personal metal items such as
rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when
working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid
battery can produce a short-circuit current
high enough to weld a ring (or the like) to
metal, causing a severe burn.
8. Take care not to drop a metal tool or other metal
onto the battery. Metal may cause sparking or
short circuit the battery or another electrical
devise. Sparking may cause an explosion.
9.
NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in
the vicinity of the battery or engine. Batteries
generate explosive gases!
GENERAL BATTERY SAFETY
• To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow
these instructions and those published by the
manufacturer and the manufacturer of any
equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of
a battery. Review cautionary marking on these
products and on the engine.
• When connecting to a battery in the vehicle, take
care to determine which post is grounded. To
reduce risk of a spark near battery, follow these
steps when battery is installed in vehicle.
•
WARNING: A spark near a battery may cause battery
explosion.
1. Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other
parts that can cause injury.
2. Check polarity of battery posts. Battery case will
be marked by each post: POSITIVE (POS, P, +)
and NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -). NOTE: The positive
battery post usually has a larger diameter than the
negative post.
3. Determine which post of battery is ground
(connected) to chassis.
NOTE: The negative post is normally grounded.
