Setting the Controls
All controls for your charger are located on the front of the unit. Follow these
instructions to obtain the accurate charge level for your battery.
Output Selector Switches:
Two switches are used to select the rate of charge or function; a 3-position
switch (switch #2) on the right, and a 2-position switch (switch #1) to the
left of it.
Switch #1 - Use this switch to select the 200 Amp Engine Start and the 40
Amp Charge Rate. Switch #2 must be in the down position (Select Position)
when using Switch #1.
Switch #2 - Use this switch to select the 2 amp Charge Rate and the OFF
position. Also, use this switch to enable Switch #1. Note that Switch #1 is
only effective when Switch #2 is set to “Select Position.”
Ammeter
The Ammeter indicates the amount of current, measured in amps, that is being
drawn by the battery. As a battery takes on a charge, it draws less current from
the charger. Correspondingly the meter will show less current being drawn by
the battery. When the current stops decreasing, the battery is charged. The
start area of the meter indicates a high rate of current being drawn from the
charger. When cranking an engine, the meter needle will be at the extreme
right side of the start area. The 2 amp charge rate may indicate some activity
on the meter, although the meter does not have the resolution to display this
low rate.
