* Total Series Capability - This refers to the Battery Pack. The charger will charge each individual battery within the
pack INDEPENDENTLY of the others within that same pack. The charger ignores the series connections.
Parallel Charging - The chargers can be hooked up to batteries that are connected in parallel, however the
batteries would not be treated independently. All banks of the charger would see the same voltage.

FOR THE FOLLOWING BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEMS:
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please save and read all safety, operating and installation instructions before installing
or applying AC power to your on-board battery charging system. Please contact us with
any product, installation, or service questions at technical support (800.742.2740).
INTRODUCTION
Pro Charging Systems, LLC (PCS) has been manufacturing high quality, high performance charging
systems since 1989. Our charging systems are designed and built tough to withstand intense vibrati on,
extreme environmental variations and without damaging the unit. Our systems use temperature
compensation in order to fully charge a battery in hot or cold environments and are controlled by
microprocessors in order to assure precise control over each totally independent charging bank. All of
our chargers have true reverse polarity protection and shut off completely after each charge cycle.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use of attachments not recommended or sold by PCS may result in a risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury
to persons.
To reduce risk of damage to the electrical plug and power cord, always pull by the plug rather than by the
power cord when disconnecting charger.

When using an extension cord, make sure:
1. That pins on the extension cord plug are the same number, size and shape as those of the
charger’s plug;
2. That extension cord meets UL (Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.) acceptance and is in proper
operating condition;
3. That wire size is large enough for the ac ampere rating of charger.
Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug—replace the cord or plug immediately.
Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any way;
contact our technical support group for assistance (800.742.2740).
Do not disassemble charger; contact technical support when service or repair is required. Incorrect
reassembly may result in risk of electrical shock or fire.
To reduce risk of electrical shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning.
WARNING: RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES
1. WORKING IN THE 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
each time before using your charger, you read this manual and follow the instructions exactly.
2. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery
manufacturer and by the manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of
battery. Review all cautionary markings on any product being utilized in or around the charging
device.
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work near a
lead-acid battery.
Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, eyes, or other
surfaces.
Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near 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 seek medical attention.
NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery or engine.
Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. This might cause a spark or short-
circuit a battery, possibly resulting in an 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.
This charger’s algorithm is normally configured to charge wet cell or AGM batteries. When a “special”
algorithm has been provided for unique battery types, such as gelled electrolyte or lithium batteries, the
charger will have a special label applied to the power cord indicating the type of battery to be charged. If
you have any questions concerning your charger, please contact us before utilizing the charger.
