PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Always read all instructions before using your charger!

1. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near battery. Have plenty of
fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, eyes, or other surfaces. 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 promptly.

2. Dress properly. Wear protective, electrically nonconductive clothes and nonskid footwear. 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. Wear restrictive hair covering to
contain long hair.

3. Avoid working alone. Be sure someone is within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work
near a lead-acid battery.

4. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense. Do not operate any charger when you are tired.

5. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let them handle machines, tools, battery
chargers, or extension cords.

6. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.

7. Observe work area conditions. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of battery or engine. Don’t expose
to rain. Keep work area well lit.

8. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or across electrical cables or frames.

9. Avoid electrical shock. To reduce risk of electrical shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance
or cleaning.

10. Do not operate charger with damaged electrical cord or plug. To reduce risk of damage to the electrical plug and
cord, pull by plug rather than by the cord when disconnecting charger. If damaged, replace the electrical cord or plug
immediately.

11. Store idle equipment. When not in use, store equipment in a dry location to inhibit rust. Always lock up tools and
equipment and keep out of reach of children.

12. Maintain charger with care. Inspect periodically and, if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way, have it repaired by an authorized technician. Do not disassemble charger; contact PCS technical
support when service or repair is required (800.742.2740). Incorrect reassembly may result in risk of electrical shock or fire.

13. Check for damaged parts. Before using any battery charger, carefully check any part that appears damaged to
determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for broken parts and any other condition that
may affect proper operation. Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician. Do
not use the charger if any part does not operate properly.

14. Replacement parts and accessories. When maintaining, only use accessories intended for use with this charger.
Approved accessories are available from Pro Charging Systems (800.742.2740).
