PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS AND SAFETY
1. Another person should be close enough to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid
battery.
2. Fresh water and soap should be nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or eyes.
3. Wear eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching eyes or skin while working
with a battery. If acid particles or corrosion gets into eyes, immediately flood eye with cold
water (Eye Wash Station) for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention immediately.
4. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water.
5. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
6. CAUTION: Dropping metal tool or other object onto battery may cause spark, short-
circuit battery or other electrical components and may cause explosion.
7. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when
working with a lead-acid battery. Lead-acid batteries can produce a short-circuit cur-
rent high enough to cause a severe burn.
POWER CORD CONNECTION
Charger should be grounded to reduce risk of electric shock. Charger is equipped with an
AC cord having grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
a properly installed and grounded 110/120VAC outlet in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances. (See Figure 1.)
DANGER! NEVER alter AC cord or plug – if it will not fit outlet, have proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection may result in
an electric shock.
This battery charger is for use on a 110/120VAC circuit, and has a grounding plug that
looks like the plug shown in FIGURE 1A. If a properly grounded outlet is not available, a
temporary adapter (like the adapter shown in FIGURE 1B), may be used to connect this
plug to a two-pole receptacle as shown in FIGURE 1B. The temporary adapter should be
used ONLY until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear or tab extending from adapter must be connected to a prop-
erly grounded outlet. Make certain it is grounded. If necessary, replace original outlet
cover plate screw with a longer screw that will secure adapter ground tab to outlet cover
plate and connect to grounded outlet.
DANGER! Before using adapter as shown (FIGURE 1B), be sure the center screw of
outlet plate is grounded.
