OPERATION
USING THE BATTERy CHARGING CABLE
See Figure 7.
CAUTION:
The 12V DC receptacle is designed to charge vented wet
lead acid batteries, not to jump start vehicles. Do not
overcharge battery or leave battery unattended.
Using the battery clamps, connect the charging cable to
the battery terminal. Connect the red wire to the positive
(+) terminal first, then connect the black wire to the nega-
tive (-) terminal. Make sure all connections are secure.
NOTE: Be careful not to short across the terminals when
installing. Shorting the terminals together can cause
sparks, damage to the battery or generator, or even burns
or explosions.
Connect the battery charging cable to the 12V DC recep-
tacle.
Start the generator.
The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch
while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a
problem.
NOTE: Only use battery charging cable to charge vented
wet lead acid batteries.
When batteries become fully charged, disconnect the
charging cable from the battery. Disconnect the negative
(black) wire first, then the positive (red) wire, being careful
not to short across the terminals. Always abide by the
safety warnings provided with the battery.
NOTE: Most batteries will be completely charged after
30 to 120 minutes. However, it is highly recommended
that you refer to your battery manufacturer's instructions
for specific charge times.
Unplug charging cable and store for later use.
