DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS
DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS
1. Connect and disconnect DC output only after removing AC
cord from electric outlet. Never allow clips to touch each other.
2. Attach clips to battery posts and twist or rock back and forth
several times to make a good connection. This tends to keep
clips from slipping off terminals and helps to reduce risk of
sparking.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN
VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR A BATTERY MAY CAUSE
BATTERY EXPLOSION.
TO REDUCE RISKS;
1. Carefully position AC and DC cords to reduce risk of damage
by hood, door or moving engine parts.
2. Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys and other parts that
can cause injury to persons.
3. Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS. P. +), battery
posts usually have a larger diameter than
the NEGATIVE (NEG. -.) posts.
4. Determine which post of battery is grounded (connected) to
the chassis.
5. For negative-grounded vehicle, connect POSITIVE (RED) clip
from battery charger to POSITIVE (POS, P,+) UNGROUNDED
POST OF THE BATTERY. Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip
to vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. DO NOT
CONNECT CLIPS TO CARBURETOR, FUEL LINES, OR
SHEET METAL BODY PARTS. Connect to a heavy gauge
metal part of the frame or engine block.
6. For positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK)
clip from battery charger to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -)
UNGROUNDED POST OF THE BATTERY. Connect
POSITIVE (RED) clip to the vehicle chassis or engine block
away from battery.
DO NOT CONNECT CLIP TO CARBURETOR, FUEL LINES
OR SHEET METAL BODY PARTS, CONNECT TO GOOD
GROUND I.E. FRAME OR ENGINE BLOCK
