This manual contains important safety and operating
instructions for your battery maintainer/charger.

1. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery
maintainer/charger manufacturer may result i n a risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons.

2. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug
rather than cord when disconnecting charger.

3. An extension cord should not be used unless abs olutely necessary.
Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and
electric shock. If extension cord must be used, make sure:

a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the sam e number, size,

and shape as those of plug on 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 charger.

4. Do not operate maintainer/charger with damaged cord or plug ­replace the cord or plug immediately.

5. Do not operate maintainer/charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a

qualified serviceman.

6. Do not disassemble maintainer/charger; take it to a qualified
serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly

may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

7. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug maintainer/charger from
outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning

off controls will not reduce this risk.

8. WARNING - RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES

a. WORKING IN VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS

DANGEROUS. BA TT ERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES

DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS

REASON, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT EACH TIME

BEFORE USING YOUR MAINTAINER/CHARGER, YOU READ

THIS MANUAL AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.

b. To reduce risk of battery explosion, f ollow these instructions and

those published by battery manufacturer and

manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in vicinity of

battery. Review cautionary marking on these

products and on engine.

9. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

a. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to

come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid
battery.
b. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in cas e battery acid

contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
c. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid

touching eyes while working near battery.
d. 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.
e. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of batt ery or

engine.
f. 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.
g. Remove personal metal items such as rings , brac elets, 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.
h. Use maintainer/charger for charging a LEAD-ACID battery only. It

is not intended to supply power to a low voltage electrical
system other than in a starter-motor application. Do not use

battery maintainer/charger 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.
i. NEVER charge a frozen battery.

10. CHARGER LOCATION
a. Locate maintainer/charger as far away from battery as dc cables

permit.
b. Never place maintainer/charger directly above battery being

charged; gases from battery will corrode and damage charger.
c. Do not operate maintainer/charger in a closed-in area or restrict

ventilation in any way.
d. Do not set a battery on top of maintainer/charger.

BATTERY OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The JIFFY STX PROII LECTRIC requires a 12 volt, deep cycle, lead
acid battery. Jiffy recommends an AGM battery.

The power source should be chosen carefully. The battery directly
affects the performance of the drill. A battery that is too small or in
poor condition will reduce power and cycle time.

The battery should be fully charged before every use. This will
ensure maximum performance from bot h your JIFFY LECTRIC power
ice drill and the battery.

Use the included Jiffy part #3917, 8 ft Connection Cable to connect to
an external battery.

Replacement Blade

Improper cutting may be due to dull or damaged drill teeth or drill point.
Maintain sharp blade teeth and point. Preserve the original factory
cutting angles when sharpening your drill. File blade teeth and use a
disk sander to sharpen the point. For professional service see your
Jiffy service center. Only genuine

Jiffy blade teeth are to be used.

teeth should face away from the ice, as shown in the diagram. Use
two 7/16” wrenches to remove the capscrews and to retighten after
replacement. CAUTION – THE BLADE TEETH ARE SHARP AND

SHOULD BE HANDLED CAREFULLY TO AVOID FLESH CUTS OR
INJURY.
