bATTERY HANDLING

GASES FROM bATTERY can explode.

•Keep sparks, flame and cigarettes away from battery.

To prevent EXPLOSION when:

•INSTALLING A NEW bATTERY - dis- connect negative cable from old battery first and connect to new battery last.

•CONNECTING A bATTERY CHARGER - Remove battery from welder by discon- necting negative cable first, then posi- tive cable and battery clamp. When reinstalling, connect negative cable last. Keep well ventilated.

•USING A bOOSTER - connect positive lead to battery first then connect negative lead to engine foot.

bATTERY ACID CAN bURN EYES AND SKIN.

•Wear gloves and eye protection and be careful when working near battery. Follow instructions printed on battery.

-PREVENTING ELECTRICAL DAMAGE

1.When replacing, jumping, or otherwise connecting the battery to the battery cables, the proper polarity must be observed. Failure to observe the proper polarity could result in damage to the charging cir- cuit. The positive (+) battery cable has a red termi- nal cover.

2.If the battery requires charging from an external charger, disconnect the negative battery cable first and then the positive battery cable before attaching the charger leads. Failure to do so can result in damage to the internal charger components. When reconnecting the cables, connect the positive cable first and the negative cable last.

PREVENTING bATTERY DISCHARGE

Turn the RUN/STOP switch to stop when engine is not running.

PREVENTING bATTERY bUCKLING

Tighten nuts on battery clamp until snug.

CHARGING THE bATTERY

When you charge, jump, replace, or otherwise con- nect battery cables to the battery, be sure the polarity is correct. Improper polarity can damage the charging circuit. The AIR VANTAGE® 500 CUMMINS positive

(+) battery terminal has a red terminal cover.

If you need to charge the battery with an external charger, disconnect the negative cable first, then the positive cable before you attach the charger leads. after the battery is charged, reconnect the positive battery cable first and the negative cable last. Failure to do so can result in damage to the internal charger components.

Follow the instructions of the battery charger manu- facturer for proper charger settings and charging time.
