electric shock or injury to persons or damage to property.
To reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug or cord, pull by the plug rather 1.4
than the cord when disconnecting the charger.

and shape as those of the plug on the charger.
That the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.•
That the wire size is large enough for the A.C. ampere rating of the charger •
asspeciedinSection8.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before 1.6
attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Simply turning off the controls will not
reduce this risk.
Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches 1.7
when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-
circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe
burn.

PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS2.
Risk of explosive gases.
Working in the vicinity of a lead-acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate 2.1
explosive gases during normal battery operation. For this reason, it is of
utmost importance that you follow the instructions each time you use the
charger.
