SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual
1.
contains important safety and operating
instructions.
2. Before using this battery charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings on (1) the
battery charger, (2) the battery, (3) product using
the battery.
3. CAUTION – To reduce risk of injury, charge only
lead acid, maintenance-free, or flooded lead acid
type rechargeable batteries. Other types of
batteries may burst, causing personal injury or
damage.
4. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
5. Use of an attachment not sold or recommended
by the battery charger manufacturer may result in
a risk of fire, electric shock or injury to person.
6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and
cord, pull by plug rather than cord with
disconnecting charger.
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be
stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension
cord could result in risk of fire and electrical shock.
If an extension cord must be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of the extension cord are
b. That the extension cord is properly wired
c. That the wire size is large enough for the
Length of cord

9. Do not operate charger with damaged cord or
plug. REPLACE THEM IMMEDIATELY.
10. Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any
way; return it to a qualified service source.
11. Do not disassemble charger if repair or service is
required; Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk
of electrical shock or fire. Bring charger to a
qualified service source.
12. To reduce risk of electrical shock, unplug charger
from outlet before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning.
