INTRODUCTION

The Auto Charge 12 is Battery Charger is a compact completely automatic charger designed
for installation on vehicles with a single battery system. Remote sensing permits long lines
between the charger and the batteries by compensating for the voltage drop in the charging
wires. An ammeter provides continuous indication of the charger output.

Construction of the Auto Charge 12 is extremely rugged to withstand the shock and vibration
normally encountered by vehicle mounted equipment. The unit operates completely automati­cally and stops charging the batteries when they are fully charged. There is no trickle charge
and therefore no danger of overcharging and water boil-off. Any parasitic loads on the battery

such as radio, lights, etc., are automatically supplied with current by the charger.

INSTALLATION

The Auto Charge 12 Automatic Battery Charger should be installed in an area with adequate
ventilation. A power cord is supplied for connection to 115 volts 60 Hz.

1. Mount the charger using the four holes provided for this.

2. Connect the wiring from the battery to the Output Terminal Strip. Spade lugs that
have been securely crimped, or soldered, should be used.

3. Double check all wiring before proceeding.

5. Wire the A.C. power line cord to 115 volts.

6. Pilot light will light to show that the charger has power.
