Page 4: Operating Instructions For large automotive or marine battery which are deeply dis- charged, it is recommended to recharge first with a larger charger such as a 10 amp then use the SES to maintain the charge level of the battery.

Page 7: Important Safety Instructions Do not expose the charger directly to rain or snow. Use only recommended attachments. Page 8: Personal Precautions Do not disassemble the charger; take it to a qualified service person when service or repair is required.

Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Call customer service at: It is not intended to supply power to a low voltage electrical system other than in a starter-motor application. Do not use this battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. Page Charger Location Clean the battery terminals before charging the battery. During cleaning, keep airborne corrosion from coming into contact with your eyes, nose and mouth.

Use baking soda and water to neutralize the battery acid and help eliminate airborne corrosion. Do not touch your eyes, nose or mouth. Add distilled water to each cell until the battery acid reaches the level specified by the battery manufacturer. Page Dc Connection Precautions Do not operate the charger in a closed-in area or restrict the ventilation in any way.

Attach the ring terminals to the battery and chassis, as indicated in sections 6 and 7. Page 12 For a negative-grounded vehicle: You should disconnect both battery cables from the battery before connecting the charger cables. Remove the bolt from the battery post connector, insert the bolt through the ring terminal then place the bolt back in the battery connector and tighten. This battery charger is for use on a nominal volt circuit and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated.

The charger must be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock. For alignment of holes use the charger as a template. Remove all personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid 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 a metal tool or other metal onto the battery. Metal may cause sparking or short circuit the battery or another electrical devise. Sparking may cause an explosion. Always operate 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! Charger should be grounded to reduce risk of electric shock.

Charger is equipped with an electric cord having an equipmentgrounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

This battery charger is designed for use on a nominal volt circuit and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated FIGURE 1 A. This plug should be used in a grounded outlet. The plug pins must fit the receptacle outlet. NOTE: The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.

If it will not fit outlet, have proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock. The green-colored rigid ear or lug extending from adaptor must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. Make certain it is grounded. If necessary, replace original outlet cover plate screw with a longer screw that will secure adapter ear or lug to outlet cover plate and make ground connection to grounded outlet.

If necessary to remove battery from vehicle to charge, always remove grounded terminal from battery first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off, so as not to cause an arc.

Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is being charged. Gas can be forcefully blown away by using a piece of cardboard or other non-metallic material as a fan. Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes. Keep the battery terminals clean and tight. Use terminal protectors to prevent corrosion. If battery has removable filler vents, check periodically to make sure battery electrolyte liquid covers the plates.

If liquid is down, add water to bring level up. This also helps purge excessive gas from the cells. Study all battery manufacturer's specific precautions such as removing or not removing cell caps while charging, and recommended rates of charge.

DO NOT use for parallel charging.
