MODEL 6065 12 VOLT PARALLEL CHARGER OPERATOR’S MANUAL
Be sure to read and understand these Instructions before using this unit. Save these instructions. This manual contains
important safety, operating and maintenance instructions.

INTRODUCTION

Model 6065 battery charger is designed to charge one to ten 12 volt batteries in parallel. The multiple charge rates allow batteries to be
slow charged or fast charged at a rate not to exceed 30 amps output of the charger. The voltmeter allows you to adjust the charge rate
to compensate (see charging instructions).
This unit is not intended to be used as a car starting unit. The output leads are terminated in ring terminals and designed to be
permanently attached to a parallel charging rack.

1. DANGER - RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES

a. Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal battery operation. TI
may be ignited by a spark or flame and burn back through the vent hole and explode inside the battery cell. Such an explosion is
because pieces of the battery and battery acid may cause ,great harm to anyone in the immediate area. Battery acid will cause L~ skin
and eyes if not immediately washed off with fresh water. For this reason it is of utmost importance that each time before using your
charger you read this manual and following instructions exactly.
b. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and manufacturer of
any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of battery. Review cautionary markings on these products and on engine.

2. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

a. Always wear a face shield when working around lead-acid batteries. Avoid rubbing or touching eyes while working near batteries .
b. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery or engine.
c. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes. IF ACID ENTERS EYE, immediately
flood eyes with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention immediately. Never use eye drops or other
medication unless ordered to by a doctor.
d. NEVER charge a frozen battery.
e. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.
f. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short circuit battery or other electrical part that
may cause an explosion.
g. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-a can
produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.
h. Use charger for charging a LEAD-ACID battery only. It is not intended to supply power to a low-voltage electrical system other than
in an application. Do not use battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These
batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage to property.
3. CAUTION - To reduce risk of injury, charge only wet cell, lead-acid, automotive type rechargeable batteries. Other types of
batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
Do not expose charger to rain or snow if specifically warned on the unit not to do so.
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons.
To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and
electric shock.
If extension cord must be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those of plug on charger;
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and
c. If the length of the extension cord is less than 25 feet, use a 14 AWG cord. If 50 feet – 12 AWG, 150 feet – 8 AWG.
Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug. – replace them immediately.
Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified
service center.
Do not disassemble charger unless you are qualified to work on electrical products. If not, take it to a qualified service center when
service or repair is required. Incorrect assembly may result in risk of electrical shock or fire. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
