Print PageFOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS
INSTALLED IN VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION.
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, N, -) 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 heavy gauge
metal part of the frame or engine block.
7. When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off,
disconnect AC cord, remove clip from vehicle
chassis and then remove clip from battery
terminal.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS
OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION.
1. Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS,
P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter
than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
2. Attach at least a 24-inch long, 6 gauge (AWG)
insulated battery cable to the NEGATIVE (NEG,
N, -) battery post.
3. Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger to clip to
POSITIVE (POS, P, +) of the battery.
4. Position yourself and free end of cable as far
away from battery as possible, then connect
NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of
cable.
5. Do not face battery when making final connection.
6. When disconnecting charger, always do so in
reverse sequence while as far away from battery
as practical.

Charger should be grounded to reduce risk or
electrical shock. Charger is equipped with an electrical
cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a
grounding pin. This plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - Never alter AC cord or plug provided. If it
will not fit outlet, have proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in
a risk of an electrical shock.
This battery charger is for use on a nominal 117 Volt
AC circuit* and has a grounded plug like the one
illustrated in figure 1.1. A temporary adapter, which
looks like the one illustrated in figures 1.2 & 1.3, may
be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle
as shown in figure 1.2 if a properly grounded outlet is
not available. The temporary adapter should only be
used until a properly grounded outlet can be installed
by a qualified electrician.
USE OF AN ADAPTER IS FORBIDDEN IN CANADA.
If a grounding type receptacle is not available, DO
NOT use this appliance in CANADA until the proper
outlet is installed by a qualified electrician.
DANGER – Before using an adapter as illustrated, be
certain that the center screw of the outlet plate is
grounded. The green colored rigid ear or lug extending
from the adapter 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.
