DC application
The DC receptacle may be used for charging 12 volt automotive-type batteries only. The
zero load voltage is 15V-30V.
NOTE
In DC operation, turn the Smart-throttle switch to the OFF position.
1. Connect the charging cables to the DC receptacle of the generator and then to the ba-
ttery terminals.
WARNING
To prevent the possibility of creating a spark near the battery, connect charging
cable first to the generator, then to the battery. Disconnect cable first at the
battery.
Before connecting charging cables to a battery that is installed in a vehicle,
disconnect the vehicles grounded battery cable. Reconnect the vehicle's
grounded battery cable after the charging cables are removed. This procedure
will prevent the possibility of a short circuit and sparks if you make accidental
contact between a battery terminal and the vehicle's frame or body.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to start an automobile engine with the generator still connected
to the battery. The generator may be damaged.
Connect the positive battery terminal to the positive charging cord. Do not re-
verse the charging cables, or serious damage to the generator and/or battery
may occur.
WARNING
The battery gives off explosive gases; keep spark, flames and cigarettes away.
Provide adequate ventilation when charging.
The battery contains sulfuric acid (electrolyte). Contact with skin or eyes may
cause severe burns. Wear protective clothing and a face shield.
-If electrolyte gets on your skin, flush with water.
-If electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush with water for at least 15 minutes and call
a physician.
Electrolyte is poisonous.
-If swallowed, drink large quantities of water or milk and follow with milk of
magnesia or vegetable oil and call a physician.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
2. Start the engine
NOTE
The DC receptacle may be used while the AC power is in use.
An overloaded DC circuit will trip the DC circuit protector. If this happens, wait
a few minutes before pushing in the circuit protector to resume operation.
