READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. This manual contains important safety and operating
instructions for battery charger Model UC18YKSL.
2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions
and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2)

If the input rating of a battery charger is given in watts
rather than in amperes, the corresponding ampere
rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage
rating by the voltage rating―for example:
1,250 watts
125 volts
9. Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord or
plug-replace them immediately.
10. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a
sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in
any way; take it to a qualifi ed serviceman.
11. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a
qualifi ed serviceman when service or repair is

If extension cord must be used make sure:
a. That blades of extension cord are the same
number, size, and shape as those of plug on
battery charger:
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere
rating of battery charger as specifi ed in Table 1.
