Translation of the original instructions
Charging several batteries simultaneously.
It is possible to charge several batteries simultaneously by connecting them in parallel. The positive terminals connected
to the red clamp and the negative terminals connected to the black clamp. These batteries or battery groups must be
of the same voltage, 12V or 24V.
Charging batteries in series is not recommended.
USE IN STARTER MODE
Preliminary precautions
• Do not disconnect the battery fom the vehicle. Connecting the battery can lead to the vehicle's memory loss and a
potential impossibility to restart it.
Starting
Once the charger is connected to the vehicle battery while following the instructions (see connections and disconnections),
it may be necessary to perform a precharge in order to start the vehicle. To perform a precharge, set the switch to
«BOOST».
Start 200
Start 300
To start the vehicle, set the switch to «START». Reach the vehicle controls. The «start» feature will activate when
the first attempt to start is initiated (by turning the key). This mode must be stopped once the vehicle is started. It is
recommended to do this with 2 people so that the person close to the START machine can switch to START at the exact
moment and stop the device once the vehicle has started.
If your engine does not start, wait 2 minutes between each start attempt. The attempt must last 3 seconds at most.
Nb : If the vehicle does not start, it may be a problem other than a faulty battery e.g. alternator, glowplug...
After the use, follow the disconnection procedure.
PROTECTIONS
These clamps have been designed for maximum protection :
• The charging clamps are fully insulated.
• A fuse guarantees protection against polarity inversion and short circuits.
Primary fuse
Secondary fuse
Replacing it requires manual intervention.
• The thermal protection is monitored by a thermostat (cooling for approximately 1/4h). If the machine overheats, the
green indicator switches on for the start 200 ou or the orange indicator switches on for the start 300.
SULPHATED OR DAMAGED BATTERIES
The START range does not detect sulfated or damaged batteries.
• The battery is badly damaged when in charge, the anmeter pin goes up quicky to very high intensities. The battery is
permanently damaged.
• In the event of a sulfated battery : set the device to «BOOST» and regularly check that the anmeter indicates a
charging current. As soon as the charging current rises, set a charge that matches the battery capacity. If there are no
improvements after 5 hours, the battery is permanently damaged.
Warning - This must be done with the battery disconnected from the vehicle !
