NOTE: USE OF AN ADAPTER IS NOT ALLOWED IN CANADA. IF A GROUNDING TYPE RECEPTACLE IS NOT AVAILABLE, DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE UNTIL THE PROPER OUTLET IS INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
21.NOTE: SIDE TERMINAL TO BE USED IN POSITIVE CLAMP ONLY! For instructions for NEGATIVE clamp attachment
refer to section 18f or 18g.

22.LENGTH OF CHARGE
a.Test the battery for state of charge. Do not charge if it is over 75% charged or the battery is determined to be defective.
b.Set beginning amps charge rate for size of battery and state of charge per charts
c.Charge for length of time per charge,
d.Discontinue charge when the specific gravity of electrolyte reaches 1.260 or above. A temperature compensating hydrometer should be used for this reading. Discontinue charge if the battery begins to gas excessively or if the temperature of the electrolyte reaches approximately 125°F. Do not overcharge batteries. Overcharging results in excessive water loss and eventual damage to the battery.

VOLTS/AMPS CHARGE
USE OF INSTRUMENT PANEL: The MINUTES CHARGE timer has an OFF position, a CONTINUOUS CHARGE position
and a timed charge range from 0 to 90 minutes.
a. OFF - Always make sure the timer is in the OFF position before connecting or
disconnecting the clamps from the battery. The charger will not charge with the timer in this position.
b. CONTINUOUS CHARGE - This position is used for slow charging or parallel charging and will not turn the charger off. Do not use this position for fast charging.
c. 0 to 90 MINUTES TIMED CHARGE - The timer will automatically turn the charger off at the end of the
d. VOLTS/AMPS CHARGE SWITCHES - These switches are used to regulate the output voltage and current of the battery charger.
