22. SETTING UP & OPERATIONS
a) Mount this charger away from any vehicle repair or service. Make
sure never to start or run an engine near the batteries being
charged.
b) Be sure the total amperage used by this charger does not exceed
the amperage capacity of the supply source. If you do not know
how to determine this, have a qualified electrician determine the
capacity for you.
c) Connect and disconnect DC output clips only after setting any
charger switches to the off position and remove AC cord from the
electric outlet. Never allow clips to touch each other.
d) Make sure the battery terminals are clean. Wire brush them if
necessary. Clamp the black end (NEG, -) to the negative battery
terminal. Clamp the red end (POS, +) to the positive battery
terminal.
e)Connect the charger to a grounded power receptacle that is wired
in compliance with local electrical codes.
Note that side mounted batteries will require the insertion of a lead
post adapter. Plain bolts are not good conductors or safe. They will not
allow for an accurate reading and should not be used.
23. AC CONNECTIONS
a) This battery charger is for use on 220-240 Vac. Check your AC
voltage and make sure the version you take is correct.
b) The input lead must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
c) The plug pins must fit the receptacles. Do not use with an
ungrounded system.

outlet, have a properly grounded outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. Improper connection can result in a risk of an electric
shock or electrocution.
24. DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS
a) Connect and disconnect DC output clips only after removing AC
cord from the electric outlet. Never allow clips to touch each other.
b) FOR A CHARGER HAVING AN OUTPUT VOLTAGE SELECTOR
SWITCH, REFER TO THECAR OWNER’S MANUAL IN ORDER
TO DETERMINE THE VOLTAGE OF THE BATTERY AND
TO MAKE SURE THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE IS SET AT THE
CORRECT VOLTAGE. IF AN OUTPUT VOLTAGE SELECTOR
SWITCH IS NOT PROVIDED, DO NOT USE THE BATTERY
CHARGER UNLESSTHE BATTERY VOLTAGE MATCHES THE
OUTPUT VOLTAGE RATING OF THE CHARGER.
