H. DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS

1.Connect and disconnect DC output clips only after setting any charger switches to 2 AMP position and then removing AC cord from electric outlet. Never allow clips to touch each other.

2.Attach clips to battery posts and twist or rock back and forth several times to make a good connections This tends to keep clips from slipping off terminals and helps to reduce risk of sparking.

I.FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE

A SPARK NEAR BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EX- PLOSION TO REDUCE RISK OF SPARK NEAR BATTERY:

1.Position AC and DC cords to reduce risk of damage by hood, door, or moving engine part.

2.Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.

3.Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P,+) battery post usually has larger diameter than NEGA- TIVE (NEG, N, -) post.

4.Determine which post of battery is grounded (connected to the chassis). If negative post is grounded to chassis (as in most vehicles), see No. 5. If positive post is grounded to the chassis, see No. 6.

5.For a negative-grounded vehicle, connect POSITIVE (RED) clip from battery charger to POSITIVE (POS, P,+) ungrounded post of battery. Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine block.

6.For a positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from battery charger to NEGATIVE (NEG,

GROUNDED BATTERY

N, -) ungrounded post of battery. Connect POSITIVE (RED) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-mebl body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine block.

7.When disconnecting charger, disconnect AC cord, remove clip from vehicle chassis, and then remove clip from battery terminal, in that order.

8.See charge period for length of charge information.
