WARNING
• Do not try to start the engine, of a motor car, when
the generator is still connected to the battery.
• The generator may be damaged.
• Connect the positive terminal of the battery to the
positive re-charge cable.
Do not invert the cables otherwise severe da-
mages may occur to either the generator or the
battery.
When the battery is out of the machine (the car)
take the following steps. A spark close to the battery
might cause an explosion.
To reduce this risk:
1. Check the polarity of the battery.
The positive pole (Pos +) of the battery has usually
a diameter larger than that of the negative (Neg-).
2. Connect an insulated cable having a section of
13 sq.mm. and a minimum length of 600 mm. to
the negative pole (Neg-).
Use as a battery charger
Check the electrolyte level
in all the elements of the
battery.

following instructions and those appearing on the
label applied onto the battery.
The battery contains sulphuric acid (electrolyte).
The contact with eyes and skin may cause se-
vere lesions. Wear protective garments and eye
protections.
• If the electrolyte comes in contact with the
