Sears 210 - Sch 50911/13/95
A TEMPORARY adapter may be used to connect the
charger to a two-pole outlet if a properly grounded
outlet is not available. Use the adapter ONLY until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician.
DANGER: Before using an adapter as illustrated, be
certain that the center screw of the outlet plate is
grounded. The green colored grounding clip of the
adapter must be attached by a screw to a properly
grounded outlet. If unsure whether outlet is properly
grounded, contact a professional electrician. If neces-
sary, replace the original outlet cover screw with a
longer one that will secure the grounding clip to the
outlet cover and make a ground connection to the
grounded outlet.
Using an extension cord
The use of an extension cord is not recommended. If
you must use an extension cord, please make sure
that you follow these guidelines:
•Make sure the pins on the plug of the extension cord
are the same number, size, and shape as those of the
plug on the charger.
•Use only 3-conductor (grounded) extension cord
when necessary.
•Check that the extension cord is properly wired and
in good electrical condition.
•Make sure that the wire size is large enough for its
length and for the AC ampere rating as specified in
the accompanying chart.
Before Using Your Batter y Charger
It is important to understand your charger's requirements. This section will tell you about your charger's electrical
requirements and how to prepare a battery for charging.
Plugging it in
Electrical Shock Hazard
Be sure that power cord fits properly into outlet.
If not, have a qualified technician install a proper
outlet. Never alter the AC cord or plug provided.
Improper connection can result in electrical shock.
Your charger should be grounded to reduce the risk
of electrical shock.
Your charger is equipped with an electrical cord that
has an equipment grounding conductor and a ground-
ing plug designed to be used on a 120 volt circuit. The
plug must be plugged into an outlet that has been
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
