7. GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTIONS
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE
7.1
.
This battery charger is for use on a nominal 220-240V, 50/60Hz circuit. (See the warning label on the charger for the correct input
voltage.) The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. The plug pins must fit the receptacle (outlet).
DO NOT
use with an ungrounded system.
▲
DANGER
:
7.2.
NEVER
alter the AC cord or plug provided – if it does not fit the outlet, have a proper grounded outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. An improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock or electrocution.
7.3
.
Recommended minimum AWG size for extension cord:100 feet (30.5 meters) long or less – use a 12 gauge (3.31 mm²) extension
cord. Over 100 feet (30.5 meters) long – use an 8 gauge (8.36 mm²) extension cord.
8. MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
The BSCU170 is non-portable equipment.
Suitable for mounting only on concrete or other non-combustible surfaces.
To permanently mount the charger, use the following instructions:
8.1.
Slide all 4 brackets (Item 1) into the track on the back, from the right side, as shown above. Make sure the set screws (Item 2) are
unscrewed enough so they do not scratch the surface of the housing.
8.2
.
Measure what you are mounting the charger to before deciding where to locate the brackets (add an additional ¼ to ½ inch). Use
the ruler on the label (Item 3) to mount the brackets (Item 1) in the correct position (position each bracket an equal distance from the
centre of the charger). Note that the inches shown are for both bracket dimensions combined (meaning the dimensions are doubled),
this is for easier reference. Make sure the ¼-28 set screws (Item 4) are unscrewed enough so the pointed end is almost flush with the
bracket. Mount the brackets (Item 1) by tightening all 8 set screws (Item 2) to 14 in/lb (1.6 n/m) of torque.
8.3
.
Lift the charger by its handle and set it against your mounting location, tighten the set screws (Item 4) to 66 in/lb (7.5 n/m) of torque to
secure the brackets (Item 1), starting with the top two brackets first.
9. CONTROL PANEL
●
CONNECTED (yellow/orange) LED.
The CONNECTED LED will light when the battery is properly connected.
●
CHARGING (yellow/orange) LED.

●
▲and▼ (UP and DOWN) Buttons
. Use these buttons to select the amount of time or voltage, depending on the display function selected.
●
●
(Start/Stop) Button.
This is the start and stop button for all modes.
●
Digital Display.
The Digital Display gives a digital indication of voltage, amperes or time, depending on the display function chosen.
●
Display Button.
Use this button to set the function of the digital display to one of the following:
●
VOLTS (Voltmeter).
The voltmeter indicates the voltage at the battery terminals. If the reading is 12.8 volts or more, the battery is charged.
●
AMPS (Ammeter).
The ammeter indicates the amount of current, measured in amps, that is being drawn by the battery (± 2 amps).
NOTE:
The 70 amp charge rate cycles between 20 amps and 70 amps during the charging process and the ammeter will show this. This is a
normal condition.
