Operating Procedures.
WARNING
Connect or disconnect the battery clamps only when the power cord is disconnected, or arcing and burning
may result in an explosion and cause injury to personnel.
CAUTION
The HOLD position of the TIMER should be used only for prolonged low rate charging. If turned to HOLD
the charger will charge indefinitely and cause battery damage through overcharging.
