Safety Guidelines
For safe, ecient, and accurate charging and testing, review
the safety and operating instructions in this manual before
using the analyzer. In addition, follow all manufacturers’
instructions and BCI (Battery Council International) safety
recommendations.
1 General Safety Precautions
Risk of explosive gases
Batteries generate explosive gases during normal
operation, and when discharged or charged.
1.1 To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these safety instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and the manufacturer of any equipment you intend
to use in the vicinity of a battery. Review cautionary marking on these products and on the engine, and on the vehicle or equipment containing the battery.
Charging a non-rechargeable battery may
cause the battery to burst.
To reduce the risk of injury, only charge rechargeable
lead-acid type batteries including maintenance-free,
low-maintenance, or deep-cycle batteries.
If you are uncertain as to the type of battery you are
attempting to charge, or the correct procedure for checking
the battery’s state of charge, contact the seller or battery
manufacturer.
1.2 Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the
battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of re,
electric shock, or injury to persons.
1.3 To reduce risk of damage to the electric plug and cord,
pull by the plug rather than by the cord when disconnecting the charger.
1.4 Position the AC and DC leads to avoid tripping over them
and to prevent damage from moving engine parts; protect from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
1.5 Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped or otherwise damaged in any way; take it
to a qualied service center.
1.6 Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualied service
center when repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may
result in a risk of electric shock or re.
1.7 To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from
the AC outlet before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning. Turning o the controls will not reduce this risk.
1.8
Connect and disconnect the battery leads only when the
AC supply cord is disconnected.
1.9
Do not overcharge the battery.
1.10
Charge the battery in a dry, well-ventilated area.
1.11
Never place articles on or around the charger, or locate
the charger in a way that will restrict the ow of cooling
air through the cabinet.
1.12
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. (See paragraph 4.2)
1.13 Have a damaged cord or plug replaced immediately.
1.14
Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
2 Personal Precautions
2.1 Always have someone within range of your voice, or close
enough to come to your aid, when working around lead
acid batteries.
2.2 Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery
acid contacts skin, clothing or eyes.
2.3 Wear complete eye protection, clothing protection, and
wear rubber soled shoes. Place damp cloth over battery
to protect against acid spray. When ground is very wet or
covered with snow, wear rubber boots. Avoid touching
eyes while working near battery.
2.4 If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately
with soap and water. If acid enters the eye, immediately
ush with cold running water for at least 10 minutes, and
seek medical attention.
2.5 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or ame in vicinity of a battery or engine.
2.6 Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool
onto the battery. It might spark or short circuit the battery
or other electrical part that may cause an explosion.
2.7 Before working with a lead-acid battery, remove personal
metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, watches,
etc. A lead-acid battery can produce a short circuit current
high enough to weld such items causing a severe burn.
Non-rechargeable batteries may burst when
charging causing personal injury and damage.
To avoid electrical shock or burn, never alter the charger’s original AC cord and plug. Disconnect plug from
outlet when charger is idle.
The charger is not intended to supply power to a lowvoltage electrical system other than applications using
rechargeable, lead-acid type batteries. Do not use the
battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries commonly
used with home appliances. These batteries may burst
and cause personal injury and property damage.
2.8 NEVER charge a frozen battery; thaw it out rst.
