Test procedures / operating instructions
IMPORTANT:
1. For testing 12 volt, 2AH~200AH batteries, and for
testing 12 volt charging systems.
2. Suggested operation range 0ºC(32ºF) to
50ºC(122ºF) in ambient temperature.
WARNING:
1. Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is
dangerous. Batteries generate explosive
gases during normal battery operation. For
this reason, it is of utmost importance, if you
have any doubt, that each time before using
your tester, you read these instructions very
carefully.
2. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these
instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer
and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery.
Observe cautionary markings on these items.
3. Do not expose the tester to rain or snow.
PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
1. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid
when you work near a lead acid battery.
2. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing
or eyes.
3. Wear safety glasses and protective clothing.
4. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid
enters eye, immediately fl ood eye with running cold water for at least ten minutes and
get medical attention immediately.
5. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or fl ame in vicinity of battery or engine.
6. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It could spark
or short-circuit the battery or other electrical parts and could cause an explosion.
7. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when
working with a lead acid battery. It can produce a short circuit current high enough to
weld a ring or the like to metal causing a severe burn.
