DC operation
The DC terminals may be used for charging 12 volt automotive-type batteries
only.
-
l
Batteries produce explosive gases. Keep sparks, flames, and cigarettes away.
To prevent the possibility of creating a spark near the battery, connect the
charging cord first to the battery, then to the generator, and disconnect the
cord first at the generator.
l
Disconnect the vehicle’s grounded battery cable first, and after charging,
reconnect the grounded cable last. This procedure will prevent the
possibility of a short circuit and sparks if your tools accidentally make
contact between a battery terminal and the vehicle’s frame or body.
CAUTION:
l
Do not attempt to start an automobile engine with the generator still
connected to the battery. The generator may be damaged.
l
Connect the positive battery terminal to the positive charging cord. Do
not reverse the charging cables, or serious damage to the generator and/or
battery may occur.
NOTE:
l
An overloaded DC circuit will trip the DC circuit breaker (push button
comes .out). If this happens, wait a few minutes before pushing the circuit
breaker to resume operation.
