• For positive earth vehicles, connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) lead and
clamp from the battery charger to the NEGATIVE terminal on the
battery. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) lead and clamp to the vehicle
frame or engine block away from the battery.
•
DO NOT
connect the lead to ancillary engine components.
6. Where appropriate we recommend that the non-earthed lead on the
battery is disconnected prior to charging. It is possible that damage may
occur to the vehicle’s electronic equipment.
7. When charging is completed, switch off the charger. Remove the leads
and clamps in the reverse sequence taken in the relevant step 5.
8. A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To
charge it on board requires equipment specially designed for maritime
use.
CONNECTING TO A BATTERY REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE
1. Make sure that you know the polarity of the battery posts.
2. Identify the voltage of the battery to be charged (12v or 24v) and attach
the POSITIVE (RED) lead to the appropriate terminal on the rear of the
charger.
3.
ALWAYS
remove the grounded (earth) terminal from the battery first,
making sure that all electrical accessories in the vehicle are switched off to
prevent sparking before removing the battery from the vehicle.
4. Clean the battery terminals. Be careful to prevent battery electrolyte from
coming in contact with your eyes.
5. Except for sealed units, add distilled water to each cell until the battery
acid reaches the level specified by the battery manufacturer.
• This helps drive unwanted gas from the cell. Do not overfill. For a battery
without cell caps, consult the manufacturer's instructions.
6. Follow all the battery manufacturer's specified precautions: for example,
removing or not removing cell caps while being charged, and
recommended rates of charge.
7. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) lead and clamp to the POSITIVE post on the
battery.
8. Connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) lead and clamp at arms length to the
NEGATIVE post on the battery.
9. When you disconnect the charger/starter from the battery,
ALWAYS
do it in
the opposite order to the sequence of connection and remove the first
connection at arms length from the battery.
