WARNING!
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - This manual contains
important safety and operating instructions for a battery
maintainer.
„ CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, charge only wet
cell, lead-acid, automotive type rechargeable batteries.
These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons
and damage to property.
„ Do not expose battery maintainer to rain or snow, or
use when wet.
„ Keep out of reach of children.
„ Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by
the battery maintainer manufacturer may result in a
risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
„ To reduce the risk of damage to electric plug and
cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting
maintainer.
„ Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on,
tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
„ An extension cord should not be used unless abso-
lutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could
result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension
cord must be used, make sure:
• That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number,
size, and shape as those of plug on battery maintainer;
• That extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition; and,
• That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of
battery maintainer as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet)
Cord Size (AWG)
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
„ Do not operate battery maintainer with a damaged
cord or plug. Replace the cord or plug immediately.
„ Do not operate battery maintainer if it has received a
sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in
any way; take it to an authorized serviceman.
„ Do not disassemble battery maintainer; take it to a
qualified serviceman when service or repair is required.
Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock
or fire.
„ To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug battery
maintainer from outlet before attempting any maintenance
or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.

„ WARNING - RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.
• WORKING IN VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS
DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE
GASES DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION.
FOR THIS REASON, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE
THAT YOU FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EACH TIME
YOU USE THE MAINTAINER.
• To reduce the risk of explosion, follow these operating
instructions and those published by the battery manu-
facturer, and the manufacturer of any equipment you
intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Review all
cautionary markings on these products and on engine.
• CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, charge only a
Lithium battery or lead-acid battery, including AGM,
STD, CAL and GEL. Charging other types of batteries,
like dry-cell batteries, may burst and cause injury to
persons and damage to property.
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
„ Consider having someone close enough by to come to
your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.
„ Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case bat-
tery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes. Be aware of
first aid procedures in case of accidental contact with
battery acid.
„ Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection.
Avoid touching the eyes while working near a battery.
„ If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately
with soap and water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood
eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and
get medical attention immediately.
„ NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of
the battery or engine.
„ Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool
onto battery. It might spark or short circuit battery or other
electrical part that may cause explosion.
„ Remove 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.
„ Use the battery maintainer for charging 6V and 12V
LEAD-ACID (STD, GEL or AGM) rechargeable batteries
only. It is not intended to supply power to a low voltage
electrical system other than in a starter-motor applica-
tion. Do not use battery maintainer for charging dry-cell
batteries that are commonly used with home appliances.
These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons
and damage to property.
„ NEVER charge a frozen battery.
