Battery Charging

The Classic II is equipped with a wet charged battery. The charging current is automatically regulated when the battery is low (after starting the engine) to a trickle current when the battery is fully charged.

When replacing, jumping or otherwise connecting the battery to the battery cables, the proper polarity must be observed. This system is NEGATIVE GROUND.

WARNING

• Keep sparks, flame and cigarettes away.

BATTERY ACID can burn eyes and skin.

Wear gloves and eye protection and be careful when boosting, charging or working near battery.

To prevent EXPLOSION when:

a)Installing a new battery - disconnect the negative cable from the old battery first and connect the negative cable to the new battery last.

b)Connecting a battery charger - remove the battery from the welder by disconnecting the negative cable first, then the positive cable and battery clamp. When reinstalling, connect the negative cable last.

c)Using a booster - connect the positive lead to the battery first, then connect the negative lead to the ground lead on the base.

Muffler

This welder is supplied with an adjustable rain cap for the muffler. Install the rain cap using the clamp pro- vided with the outlet facing away from the direction in which this unit will be transported. This will minimize the amount of water and debris which could enter the muffler during transportation.
