WARNING: READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL CAREFULLY
BEFORE USING THE STARTER!
1. GENERAL SAFETY USER INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS
STARTER
In order to reduce the risk of personal injury and damage
to equipment, it is highly recommended to comply with all
essential safety measures and precautions when using the
starter.
- Inexperienced and untrained personnel should be properly
instructed before using the appliance.
- Children must be supervised to prevent them from playing
with the appliance.
-
Protect the eyes. Always wear protective goggles when
using acid lead accumulators.
-
Avoid contact with battery acid. If an operator should
be sprayed or come into contact with the acid, rinse the
relative parts immediately under clean running water.
Continue to rinse the area until the physician arrives.
-
It is important to connect the cables with the poles in
the right direction:
First connect the red clamp to the positive terminal on
the vehicle battery (+ symbol).
Connect the black clamp to the vehicle chassis, at a distance
from the battery and the fuel pipe.
- Use the starter in well ventilated areas. Do not attempt to use
the starter when there is gas or inflammable liquids in the
vicinity.
- Make sure that the black and red clamps never come into
contact with each other as this could cause them to fuse
together or with other metal objects. Return the clamps to their
respective housing.
- FOR 12 VOLT SYSTEMS ONLY! This device is destined for use
on vehicles running on 12 Volt electrical systems only.
- USE IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS ONLY: do not use the
starter instead of the vehicle battery. Use it during start-up
operations only.
- Do not work alone. If there is an accident, the assistant can be of
aid to the operator.
-
Prevent electrical shocks. Be very cautious when
applying the clamps to non-insulated conductors or bus
bars. Avoid all body contact with surfaces of tubes,
radiators, and metal power substations whilst testing the voltage.
- Keep the work area clean at all times. Untidy cumbersome areas
can lead to injuries.
- Protect the starter appropriately from all possible damage. It
must only be used as indicated in this Instruction Manual.
- Ensure compliance with the indications in the work area. Do
not use in humid or wet facilities. Never leave it out in the rain.
Always work in well lit areas.
-
Keep out of reach of children: they must never be
allowed to access work areas or handle any
machines, instruments or extensions.
-
Always wear suitable clothing. Never wear baggy
clothing or jewellery that can get caught up in
moving parts. During all operations, the use of
electrically insulated protection clothing and non-slip boots
must be worn at all times. Persons with long hair must tie it
back and wear a hair net.
- Only experts are allowed to do repair work on the starter as it
involves significant risk levels for inexperienced workers.
- Replacing parts and accessories. When performing maintenance
operations, replace with identical spare parts only. Use of non-
original spare parts invalidates all warranties.
- Make sure that the device is always positioned in a stable and
well supported manner.
Never climb over cables or electrical structures.
- Careful attention must be paid during maintaining work on
the starter. Check the condition of cables on a regular basis
and if any damage is detected, have the same repaired by an
authorised and qualified technician.
- Check there are no damaged parts. Before using this starter,
carefully check that all seemingly damaged parts and assess
whether or not they can operate correctly. Check that the
cables are securely fastened to the starter. Remember that only
authorised and qualified technicians are allowed to repair or
replace damaged parts.
