IMPORTANT & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS — This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for battery charger 2. Do not expose battery charger to rain or snow. 3. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. 4. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair is required.
v. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine. vi. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit battery or other electrical part that may cause explosion. vii. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches 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. viii.
Introduction All new Current Mode switching design offers increased power and reliability in a compact package. Extra input and output filtering reduce EMI to extremely low levels. Reliability features include an input fuse, thermal shutdown, current limiting, reverse battery hookup protection and output short circuit shutdown with automatic recovery. The output voltage is easily adjusted 1.0 volts above or below the standard output voltage.

Installation MOUNTING Mount the unit in a DRY location. Allow at least 4 inches of clearance around the heat sink fins for adequate cooling. POWER CONNECTION The unit is supplied with power leads about 3 feet long. This should normally be adequate to connect to a source of power. If you must extend the power leads, be sure to use at least a good quality (typeTEW) AWG 8 gauge wire. The wire colours are: Red - Positive Black- Negative All connections should be made inside an appropriate junction box.
Operation Prior to turning on the unit, you must decide on which charging profile, 2 or 3 stage charging, to use. To help you decide, please see the following section entitled 2 or 3 Stage Charging to determine the charging profile. Once you have decided on the charging profile you must set the switch to the correct position. To access the switch remove the cover plate (secured by 2 screws). Set the switch to the correct position as shown on the label.
2 or 3 Stage Charging This charger features user selectable 2 or 3 stage charging. The charging profile is selected by moving the slide switch on the front panel left to 3 stage or right for 2 stage charging.
Troubleshooting This unit provides LED indicators and a buzzer to help diagnose any problems. The unit should sound the buzzer to alert you prior to shutting itself down. You should immediately check the indicators to determine the cause of the shutdown. CHARGING Indicates that the battery charger is charging the batteries: If the LED is not on, the batteries may be fully charged and the charger is supplying a float voltage to the batteries to keep them fully charged.
Dry Contact Relay To use your dry contact output fail relay you must connect a 9-pin D connector to the unit. You must use pins one and six as is indicated on page 10 in the remote connector diagram. The relay is factory preset to fail in the closed position when the low output LED and buzzer come on. If you wish to have the relay fail in the open position when the low output LED and buzzer come on, you must take the cover off the unit and move the jumper to the other position on J22.
