SAFETY
1.1. GENERAL SAFETY.
√ Observe standard workshop safety procedures when using the unit.
√ Ensure that the vehicle ignition switch is turned OFF before connecting the
unit.
√ Ensure there is another person within hearing range, or close enough to come
to your aid when working near, or with, lead-acid batteries.
√ Wear safety eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching eyes
while working with or near the vehicle battery.
√ Have fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin,
clothing or eyes.
√ Wash immediately with soap and water if battery acid contacts skin or
clothing. If acid enters eye, flush eye immediately with cool, clean running
water for at least 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.
√ Remove personal metallic items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and
watches. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough
to weld a ring or the like to metal, which may cause severe burns.
√ Keep the work area clean and uncluttered and ensure there is adequate
lighting. Keep tools and other items away from the engine and ensure you can
see the vehicle battery and working parts of engine clearly.
√ Maintain correct balance and footing. Ensure the floor is not slippery and
wear non-slip shoes.
√ Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the working area.
WARNING! DO NOT use the unit where there are flammable gases or liquids.
WARNING! DO NOT use the unit on any vehicles other than those with 12Volt
DC systems.
× DO NOT use the unit if you suspect that the battery pack or the casing is
damaged.
× DO NOT smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of the vehicle
battery or engine.
× DO NOT get the unit wet or use in damp or wet locations or areas where there
is condensation.
× DO NOT use the unit for any purpose other than that for which it is designed
×DO NOT operate the unit if damaged.
√ When not in use store the unit in a safe, dry, childproof location.
√ Ensure that the unit is fully charged before storage.
1.2. Charger plug electrical safety. Use only the supplied charger plug for
connecting the charger to the power supplier.
WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to read, understand and comply
with the following electrical instructions: You must ensure the risk of
electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices.
An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main
distribution board. We also recommend that a RCD (Residual Current Device) is
used with all electrical products, particularly portable equipment which is
plugged into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. You must also read
and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety: The
Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if
used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified electrician, using a
Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances
responsible for the safe condition of the appliance and the safety of the
appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a
qualified electrician.
√ You must ensure that you: Inspect the charger plug, cable and connector for
wear and damage to ensure items are safe before connecting to the mains power
supply. If worn or damaged DO NOT use.
√ Check that the voltage marked on the charger plug is the same as the unit.
√ Uncoil the cable between the charger plug and the unit.
× DO NOT pull the charger plug from the mains socket by the lead.
WARNING! DO NOT use any other type of charger with this product other
than the supplied mains charger. Failure to observe this warning could result
in injury and/or fire and will invalidate the warranty.
× DO NOT attempt to dismantle the charger plug.
× DO NOT use the charger plug to charge or power any other electrical item.
× DO NOT get the charger plug wet, or use in wet, damp conditions.
1.3. BATTERY PACK SAFETY.
WARNING! The unit is powered by a sealed lead-acid battery which can be
dangerous if not handled with care.
√ Charge battery pack prior to first use. The battery will have been shipped
in a low charge state.
× DO NOT charge battery pack when room temperature is below 50°F (10°C) or
above 104°F (40°C).
× DO NOT attempt to recharge the battery pack by means of an engine generator
or a DC power source.
× DO NOT short-circuit the battery pack by linking both terminals with a metal
object.
× DO NOT store the unit in locations where the temperature may exceed 104°F
(40°C).
WARNING! Dispose of spent battery pack correctly and in accordance with
local regulations as it contains acid.
× DO NOT attempt to dismantle the battery pack. For safety and environmental
reasons DO NOT discard in domestic waste or by burning. ONLY discard or
recycle according to local waste authority regulations.
WARNING! If you come into contact with battery acid take immediate
action:
a) Skin contact:Wash immediately with soap and water.
b) Eye contact: Flush eye immediately with cool, clean running water for at
least 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.
WARNING! The warnings, cautions and instructions in this manual cannot
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be
