MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

13. 

After use and before performing maintenance, unplug and disconnect the battery 

13.1 

charger (see sections 6, 7 and 8).

Use a dry cloth to wipe all battery corrosion and other dirt or oil from the battery clips, 

13.2 

cords, and the charger case.
Ensure that all of the charger components are in place and in good working condition, 

13.3 

for example, the plastic boots on the battery clips.
Servicing does not require opening the unit, as there are no user-serviceable parts.

13.4 

All other servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel.

13.5 

MOVING AND STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

14. 

Store the charger unplugged, in an upright position. The cord will still conduct electricity 

14.1 

until it is unplugged from the outlet. 
Store inside, in a cool, dry place.

14.2 

Do not store the clips on the handle, clipped together, on or around metal, or clipped 

14.3 

to cables. 
If the charger is moved around the shop or transported to another location, take care to 

14.4 

avoid/prevent damage to the cords, clips and charger. Failure to do so could result in 

personal injury or property damage.

Failure Codes

FAILURE  

CODE

DESCRIPTION

CAUSE

F01

The battery voltage is still 

under 10V (for a 12V battery) 

or 5V (for a 6V battery) after 2 

hours of charging.

Could be caused by trying to charge a 6 

volt battery on the 12 volt charger, or the 

battery could be bad; have it checked or 

replaced.

F02

The charger cannot desulfate 

the battery.

The battery could not be desulfated; have it 

checked or replaced.

F03

The battery was unable 

to reach the “full charged” 

voltage.

Could be caused by trying to charge a 

large battery or bank of batteries on too 

low of a current setting, or the battery may 

have a shorted cell. Try again with a higher 

current setting, or have the battery checked 

or replaced.

F05

The charger was unable to 

keep the battery fully charged 

in maintain mode.

The battery won’t hold a charge. Could 

be caused by a drain on the battery or 

the battery could be bad. Make sure there 

are no loads on the battery. If there are, 

remove them. If there are none, have the 

battery checked or replaced.
