Connecting to the battery
Caution:
Ordinary jumper clamps do not have features of spark proof, reverse
polarity protection or short circuit protection. Pay very close attention and do not
allow the positive and negative battery clamps to touch or connect to each other as
the item will generatesparks and high heat if not used properly.
1)
Identify polarity of battery posts. The positive battery terminal is typically
marked by these letters or symbol (POS,P,+). The negative battery terminal is
typically marked by these letters or symbol (NEG,N,-).
2) Do not make any connections to the carburetor, fuel lines, or thin metal parts.
3) Identify if you have a negative or positive grounded vehicle. This can be done
by identifying which battery post (NEG or POS) is connected to the chassis.
4) For a negative grounded vehicle (most common): connect the RED POSITIVE
jumper clamp first to the positive battery terminal, then connect the BLACK
NEGATIVE jumper clamp to the negative battery terminal or vehicle chassis (if
you are unsure about vehicle chassis, just connect to battery terminal).
5) For a positive grounded vehicle (very uncommon): connect the BLACK
NEGATIVE jumper clamp first to the negative battery terminal, then connect
the RED POSITIVE jumper clamp to the positive battery terminal or vehicle
chassis (if you are unsure about vehicle chassis, just connect to battery
terminal).
6) When disconnecting, disconnect in the reverse sequence, removing the
negative first (or positive first for positive ground systems).
