NOTICE:
20. SIDE TERMINAL TO BE USED IN POSITIVE CLAMP ONLY! For instructions for NEGATIVE clamp attachment refer to section
17e or 17f.
Storage position
Will not get lost. Always ready to use.
LENGTH OF CHARGE
21.
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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
23.
CAUTION
- This battery charger must be fully assembled before operating. Failure to do so may result in risk
of injury.
USE OF INSTRUMENT PANEL:
The CHARGE TIME timer has an OFF position, a CONTINUOUS CHARGE position and a timed charge range
from 0 to 120 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 120 MINUTES TIMED CHARGE - The timer will automatically turn the charger off at the end of the pre-set
charging time. Turn the timer past 20 before setting the desired time.
TO CHARGE BATTERIES
a. Make connections to the battery per the instructions in previous sections of this manual.
b. Determine if the battery is 6, 12 or 24 volts and then set the CHARGE VOLTAGE switch to 6V for a 6-volt battery, 12V for a 12-volt battery or
24V for a 24-volt battery.
c. Turn the timer on and read the AMPERES meter.
d. If a higher rate of charge is desired for charging 12-volt batteries, set the CHARGE VOLTAGE switch to the 12V HI position.
e. Set the timer to the desired minutes charge.
f. Length of charge should be per the above chart and instructions.
g. DO NOT USE THE 12V START POSITION TO CHARGE BATTERIES.
NOTICE:
If charging an AGM battery, set charger on the 12V AGM SAFE setting, if charging with a different setting the charge should be
terminated between 14.7V to 15.0V, always follow battery manufacture instructions.
Extended position
Note: Pressure, when handle is
squeezed, holds adapter firm. Will not
slip back.
