the charger from temporary overloads. In the event of an overload, the circuit breaker will trip open, and after a short cooling off period will reset automatically. This process is known as cycling and can be recognized by an audible clicking sound.

These chargers should only be used to charge batteries. Any other use may permanently damage unit and void the warranty. Never attempt to start engine with charger connected to

a battery.

K.OUTPUT VOLTAGE

For use with 12 volt batteries only.

L.OUTPUT CURRENT SELECTOR SWITCH

These models are equipped with a two position switch, allowing the operator to select the ampere charge rate to a battery, as follows:

MODEL

SWITCH SETTING

82-6-PE

6 or 2 Amps

1010-2-PE

10 or 2 Amps

 

 

Before making any connections to battery, read instructions F, G and H carefully. Connect DC output clips only when AC power supply cord is removed from electrical outlet.

Never allow clips to touch each other.

M.CHARGE PERIOD

The approximate required time to bring a battery to full charge state depends upon the number of ampere-hours (AH) depleted from the battery AH’s are determined by multiplying the number of hours times the number of Amps supplied by a battery to a load.

For example - If a load was connected to a battery, which drew 7 Amps for a period of 5 hours, the battery will have supplied 35 AH, the approximate recharge time would then be calculated by dividing the 35 AH depleted from the battery, by the ampere charge rate of the charger, to allow for tapering of the charge rate add 25 percent to the charge time.

Indications of a fully charged battery are:

When the ammeter indicates the charge rate has tapered to approximately one half the charger rated output.

A hydrometer reading of the specific gravity of the electrolyte (fluid) of a battery in good condition should be between 1.250 and 1.285.

When a battery reaches 80-85% of full charge, bubbles will appear on the surface of the fluid. As the battery nears full charge, bubbling will become more noticeably vigorous.

Disconnecting from Battery:

Before disconnecting from battery read instructions F. G and H carefully.

N.STORAGE

Store battery charger in dry area.

P.PROBLEM CHECKLIST

1. If no meter reading, check the following:

(a)Remove the charger power cord plug from the AC outlet and recheck the battery charger clips for clean, tight connections.

(b)Check voltage selector switch for proper setting.

(c)Check for voltage at the AC outlet by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.

2.If Ammeter pointer moves to extreme right, remains a short time, then returns to zero, accompanied by a clicking sound, check the following:
