1. Check polarity of battery posts. Battery case will be marked by each post: POSITIVE (POS, P,
+) and NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -).
Note: The positive battery post usually has a larger diameter than the negative post.
2. Attach a 24-inch long (or longer) 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to NEGATIVE (NEG,
N, -) battery post. The 24-inch cable is necessary to avoid the possibility of a spark over the top
of the battery. 6-gauge is recommended because it is readily available at your auto parts store.
3. Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post battery. Rock clip back
and forth to make good connection.
4. Position yourself and free end of 24 inch cable as far away from battery as possible. Then
connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of cable.
Warning: Do not face battery when making final connection. Rock clip back and forth to make a
good connection.
5. Select amperage.
6. Plug charger AC cord into a 120 volt grounded outlet.
7. Warning: Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is being charged.
8. Continue charging battery until charger's ammeter needle shows half the rate of charge.

begin current output. To select the one of the 4
output amperage/charge speed settings select
the switch combination as applicable.
Min. + 1 Low amperage/charge speed
Min. + 2 Medium/Low amperage/charge speed
Max. + 1 Medium/High amperage/charge speed
Max. + 2 High amperage/charge speed
Position switch  to 1 or 2 and switch  to MIN and observe the output current. Select the
combination with the output amperage approaching the 10% figure (5% for deep discharge).
Should the setting exceed 10% (5% for deep discharge) switch down until a suitable output is
attained and begin charging.
After charging, disconnect the battery charger from the supply mains. Then remove the chassis
