Never place charger directly above
battery being charged. The gases from
the battery will corrode and damage the
charger.
Never touch the battery clamps together
when the charger is on. You could
cause a spark.
Never operate charger if it has received
a hard blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged. Take it to a qualified profes-
sional for inspection and repair.
Be sure to position the charger power
cord to prevent it from being stepped
on, tripped over, or damaged.
Never pull out the plug by the cord
when unplugging the charger. Pulling on
the cord may cause damage to the cord
or the plug.
Do not operate the charger if it has a
damaged power cord or plug. Have the
cord replaced.
PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Wear complete eye and clothing
protection
when working with lead-
acid batteries.
• Make sure that someone is within
range of your voice to come to your
aid if needed while you work with or
are near a lead-acid battery.
• Have plenty of fresh water and
soap
nearby for use in case battery
acid contacts your eyes, skin, or
clothing. If this happens, wash
immediately with soap and water.
Then get medical attention.
• Avoid touching your eyes while
working with a battery. Acid particles
(corrosion) may get into your eyes. If
this occurs, flush eyes immediately
with running cold water for at least 10
minutes. Then immediately get
medical attention.
• Never charge a frozen battery.
• Remove all personal metal items
from your body such as rings,
bracelets, necklaces and watches,
while working with a lead-acid battery.
A battery can produce a short circuit
current high enough to weld a ring (or
the like) to metal, causing a severe
burn.
• Take care not to drop any metal tool
or metal object onto the battery. This
may result in a spark or short circuit
across the battery or another electri-
cal device that may cause an explo-
sion.
• Always operate the battery charger in
an open, well-ventilated area.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or
flame in the vicinity of the battery or
engine. Batteries generate explosive
gases.
• Neutralize any acid spills thoroughly
with baking soda before attempting to
clean up.
