manual abstract
Never allow the clamps to touch each other. b. When attaching a clamp to a battery post, twist or rock the clamp back and forth several times to make a good connection. This tends to keep the clamp from slipping off the terminals and helps to reduce the risk of sparking. 6. STOP/GO LITE INSTRUCTIONSWhen used properly, the STOP/GO LITE will indicate whether the clamp connections will be correct. Connect the Positive (RED) clamp to the Positive (POS,+) battery post. Touch the contact button of the Negative (Black) clamp to the other battery post. Observe the LED lights in the STOP/GO LITE. GREEN LIGHT: The first connection is correct. Make the second clamp connection per the instructions in Section 7 or Section 8. RED LIGHT: The first connection made with the Positive (RED) clamp to the battery is incorrect. Attach the Positive (RED) clamp to the other battery post and retest. RED AND GREEN LIGHT: The battery charger is turned on. Turn the charger "OFF" and retest. NO LIGHT: Check for a shorted or open battery. Clean corrosion from the clamp jaws and battery posts. Retest. If still no light, use a voltmeter or other means to make certain you have property identified the polarity of the battery posts. Then attach the clamps per the instructions, disregarding the STOP/GO LITE. 7. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN THE BATTERY IS OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE THE BATTERY TO EXPLODE. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY: a. Read Section 6, STOP/GO LITE INSTRUCTIONS, before proceeding. b. Position the AC and DC cords to reduce any risk of damage by the hood, doors, or moving engine parts. c. Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons. d. Check the polarity of the battery posts. The Positive (POS,P,+) battery post usually has a larger diameter than the Negative (NEG,N,) battery post. e. Determine which post of the battery is grounded (connected to the chassis). If the negative post is grounded to the chassis (as in most vehicles), see item f. If the positive post is grounded to the chassis, see item g. f. For a Negative ground vehicle, double check the polarity of the battery terminals, refer to the STOP/GO LITE instructions. Connect the Positive (RED) clamp from the battery charger to the Positive (POS,P,+) ungrounded post of the battery. Connect the Negative (BLACK) clamp to the vehicle chassis, a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or the engine block, away from the battery. Do not connect the clamp to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet metal part of the frame. g. For a Positive ground vehicle, double check the polarity of the battery terminals, refer to the STOP/GO LITE instructions. Attach the Negative (BLACK) clamp to the Negative (NEG,N,-) ungrounded post of the battery. Attach the Positive (RED) clamp to the vehicle chassis, a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or the engine block, away from the battery. Do not connect the clamp to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet metal part of the frame. h. When disconnecting the charger, turn the switches to OFF, disconnect the AC cord, remove the clamp from the vehicle chassis, and then remove the clamp from the battery terminal. i. See section 10, LENGTH OF CHARGE, for information on length and rate of charge. 8. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN THE BATTERY IS OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE THE BATTERY TO EXPLODE. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY: a. Read Section 6, STOP/GO LITE INSTRUCTIONS, before proceeding. b. Check the polarity of the battery posts. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post. c. Double check the polarity of the battery posts, refer to the STOP/GO LITE instructions. Attach at least a 24 inch long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post to allow the final connection to be made away from the battery. d. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) charger clamp to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of the battery. e. Position yourself and the free end of the cable as far away from the battery as possible while connecting the NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clamp to the free end of cable. Refer to the illustration. f. Do not face the battery when making the final connection. g. When disconnecting the charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure, and break the first connection while standing as far away from the battery as practical. h. A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it on-board requires equipment specially designed for marine use. 9. EARTHING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS 2 WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. The AC cord of this unit was supplied without a plug so that you may install the correct plug as required by your local electrical codes. Your electrrical outlet must also be properly installed and earthed per local codes. The wires in the main lead are colored in accordance with the following code: Green/Ye...
