CPN 40615
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS:
1. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you
work near a battery.
2. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case the battery electrolyte contacts skin,
clothing, or eyes.
3. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near a
battery.
4. If the battery electrolyte contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If
the electrolyte enters the eye, immediately flood the eye with running cold water for at least ten
(10) minutes and get medical attention immediately.
5. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of a battery.
6. Be extra cautious, DO NOT drop metal onto a battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery
or cause an explosion.
7. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working
with a battery. A battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld these items
causing severe burns.
8. NEVER charge a frozen battery.
PREPARING TO CHARGE
1. If it is necessary to remove the battery connections, always remove grounded the terminal from the
battery first. Make sure all loads are disconnected and unit is off, so as not to cause an arc.
2. Be sure the area around the battery is well ventilated while the battery is being charged.
3. When cleaning battery terminals, be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.
4. Study all the battery manufacturer’s specific precautions such as removing or not removing cell caps
while charging, recommended rates of charge, and maintenance procedures.
UNIT LOCATION
• Never place this unit directly above the standard flooded battery. Gases from the battery will
corrode and damage equipment. A sealed maintenance free or valve regulated lead acid
(VRLA) may be placed below this equipment.
• Never allow the battery electrolyte to drip on this unit when reading the specific gravity or
filling the battery.
• Do not operate this unit in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation in any way.
• Do not set any battery on top of this unit.
D.C. CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS
Connect and disconnect d.c. output cables only after setting all of this unit's switches to off position and
removing a.c. input supply.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This battery charger should be connected to a grounded, metal, permanent wiring system; or an
equipment grounding conductor should be run with circuit conductors and connected to equipment-
grounding terminal or lead on battery charger. Connections to battery should comply with all local
codes and ordinances.
CAUTION: DO NOT PULL ON OUTPUT CABLES WHEN DISCONNECTING CHARGER FROM BATTERY.
