Charger Location; Dc Connection Precautions - Battery Tender Junior 800 Mode D'emploi

13) CHARGER LOCATION

a) Locate charger as far away from battery as dc cables permit.
b) Never place charger directly above battery being charged; gases from
battery will corrode and damage charger.
c) Never allow battery acid to drip on charger when reading electrolyte
specific gravity or filling battery.
d) Do not operate charger in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation in any
way.
e) Do not set a battery on top of charger.

14) DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS

a) Connect and disconnect dc output clips only after setting any charger
switches to offposition and removing ac cord from electric outlet. Never
allow clips to touch each other.
b) Attach clips to battery and chassis as indicated in 15(e), 15(f), and 16(b)
through 16(d).
15) FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE. A
SPARK NEAR BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO
REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
a) Position ac and dc cords to reduce risk of damage by hood, door, or
moving engine part.
b) Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause
injury to persons.
c) Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post
usually has larger diameter than NEGATIVE (NEG, N,–) post.
d) Determine which post of battery is grounded (connected) to the chassis. If
negative post is grounded to chassis (as in most vehicles), see (e). If
positive post is grounded to the chassis, see (f).
e) For negative-grounded vehicle, connect POSITIVE (RED) clip from
battery charger to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) ungrounded post of battery.
Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block away
from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal
body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine
block.
f) For positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from
battery charger to NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) ungrounded post of battery.
Connect POSITIVE (RED) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block away
from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal
body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine
block.
g) When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off, disconnect AC cord,
remove clip from vehicle chassis, and then remove clip from battery
terminal.
h) See operating instructions for length of charge information.

16) FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A
SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO
REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
a) Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post
usually has a larger diameter than NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) post.
b) Attach at least a 24-inch-long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) battery post.
c) Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of
battery.
d) Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as
possible – then connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of
cable.
e) Do not face battery when making final connection.
f) When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of
connecting procedure and break first connection while as far away from
battery as practical.
g) A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To
charge it on board requires equipment specially designed for marine use.
