PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Battery tester with printer measures the cold cranking
amps capability of the vehicle starting battery, the heal-
thy state of the battery itself, and the common faults of
the vehicle starting system and charging system. This
tool can aid maintenance personnel to find the problem
quickly and accurately, thus, to achieve quick vehicle
repair.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! This product can expose you to che-
micals including arsenic, which is known to the State of
California to cause cancer.
•
Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is
dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases
during normal battery operation. For this reason,
it is of utmost importance, if you have any doubt,
that each time before using your tester, you read
these instructions very carefully.
•
To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these
instructions and those published by the battery
manufacturer and manufacturer of any equi-
pment you intend to use in the vicinity of the
battery. Observe cautionary markings on these
items.
•
Do not expose the tester to rain or snow.
PERSONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
Someone should be within range of your voice or
close enough to come to your aid when you work
near a lead acid battery.
•
Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in
case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or eyes.
•
Wear safety glasses and protective clothing.
•
If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash im-
mediately with soap and water. If acid enters eye,
immediately flood eye with running cold water for
at least ten minutes and get medical attention
immediately.
•
Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity
of battery or engine.
•
Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping
a metal tool onto the battery. It could spark or
short-circuit the battery or other electrical parts
and could cause an explosion.
•
Remove personal metal items such as rings,
bracelets, necklaces and watches when working
with a lead acid battery. It can produce a short
circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the
like to metal causing a severe burn.
Preparing for Test
•
Be sure area around battery is well ventilated
while battery is being tested.
•
Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corro-
sion from coming in contact with eyes.
•
Inspect the battery for cracked or broken case or
cover. If battery is damaged, do not use tester.
•
If the battery is not sealed maintenance free,
add distilled water in each cell until battery acid
reaches level specified by the manufacturer. This
help purge excessive gas from cells. Do not over-
fill.
•
If necessary to remove battery from vehicle to
test, always remove ground terminal from battery
first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are
off to ensure you do not cause any arcing.
OPERATION AND USE
•
Before you test a battery in a vehicle, turn off the
ignition, all accessories, and loads. Close all the
vehicle doors and the trunk lid.
•
Note that nothing will be seen on the display until
the tester is connected to a vehicle battery.
•
Make sure the battery terminals are clean. Wire
brush them if necessary. Clamp the black load
lead to the vehicle negative battery terminal.
Clamp the red load lead to the vehicle positive
battery terminal. Please clamp on the lead part of
the terminal only. Clamping on the iron part of the
terminal will lead to wrong test results.
•
Paper load: Open the clear cover. Insert paper
to the paper feeding for auto running the paper
into printer.
NOTE: Each time you connect the tester to a battery,
the tester will run a quick cable verification to ensure
a proper connection through the output cables to sen-
sors in the clamp jaws. If the connection checks out
OK, the tester will proceed to the Home Screen. If the
connection is poor, the display will show “CHECK CA-
BLE”. In this case, check cable connections for visible
signs of damage, as you may need to re-connect the
clamps to the battery or replace the cable end.
Follow the steps below to use the tool correctly:
1.
Connect the red test clamp to the anode of the
battery and the black test clamp to the cathode,
the tester will turn on automatically. Battery volta-
ge below 7.0VDC cannot be tested properly.
2.
Then press OK key to continue.
