This chapter contains important safety and installation instructions for the
Truecharge2 Series Battery Chargers. Each time, before using the
Truecharge2 Series Battery Charger, READ ALL instructions and
cautionary markings on or provided with the battery charger, the batteries,
and all appropriate sections of this guide.
NOTE:
The Truecharge2 Series Battery Charger contains no user-
serviceable parts with the exception of the DC output fuse(s) which are
user-replaceable. See “Replacing the DC Output Fuse” on page 48 for
instructions. For obtaining service other than replacing the fuse, see
“Warranty and Return Information” on page 58 for guidance.
NOTE:
The Truecharge2 Series Battery Charger must be provided with
equipment-grounding conductors connected to the AC input ground and to
the DC chassis ground. See “Step 2: Connecting the DC Chassis Ground
(Earth)” on page 17 for instructions.
NOTE:
Turning off the battery charger using the on/standby button on the
optional remote panel will not reduce an electrical shock hazard.
