General Overview

Safety Precautions Prior to Charging Batteries

If necessary to remove a battery from a boat to charge, always remove the grounded terminal from battery first. Make sure all accessories in the boat are off, as to not cause an arc.

Be sure the area around the charger and the batteries is well ventilated while the batteries are being charged. Gases can be forcefully blown away using a piece of cardboard or other nometallic material as a fan.

Clean battery terminals with full eye protection to prevent corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.

Add distilled water in each cell until electrolyte reaches levels specified by the battery manufacturer. This helps purge excessive gases from cells. Do not overfill. For batteries without caps, carefully follow the manufacturer’s recharging instructions.

Study all manufacturer’s specific precautions, such as removing or not removing cell caps while charging, in addition to rates of charge.

Extension cords should be industrial grade / heavy duty and grounded. Check extension cord before use for damage, bent prongs and cuts. Replace if damaged.

Never charge a frozen battery.

Always make your extension cord connection on the charger side first. After connecting the extension cord to the charger proceed to plug the extension cord to a nearby AC RCD-protected (ground fault circuit protected) outlet.

Always remove the extension cord from the AC outlet first when charging is completed, followd by unplugging the charger.

The ProSport charger is a fully automatic, electronic multi-stage on-board marine battery charger. It is prewired for easy installation and is 100% waterproof for fresh and salt water applications.

The ProSport incorporates an extruded aluminium housing with plastic end caps. This design offers improved durability and heat transfer while comparing it to full plastic case competitive products. The ProSport offers multi-stage charging which includes a “float” maintenance mode that is safe for long and short term storage. ProSport can be left on indefinitely without harming or overcharging your batteries.

The ProSport’s DISTRIBUTED-ON-DEMANDmulti-stage charging technology will automatically sense and distribute 100% of the available charging amp output, i.e. 8, 12 or 20 amps (model specific) to any one bank or combination of all banks. Each battery bank output is fully isolated.

Easy to view LED indicators will provide you with AC power on and charging status. The LED indicators can be seen from the front and the side of the charger when installed.

The ProSport is available in different models and can be used in 12, 24 and 36 volt configurations (model specific) without rewiring or switching. Just attach the DC output cable terminals as illustrated in the installation section of this manual.

With your ProSport plugged in properly, it will automatically and fully charge your batteries while it conditions and extends the life of your batteries. When you are not at the boat you can leave your charger plugged in to reduce sulfate buildup allowing your batteries to be fully charged and maintained until your next boat trip.
