Test the battery for state of charge. Do not charge if it is over 75% charged or the battery is determined to be defective. b. Set beginning amps charge rate for size of battery and state of charge per charts c. Charge for length of time per charge, d. Discontinue charge when the specific gravity of electrolyte reaches 1.260 or above. A temperature compensating hydrometer should be used for this reading. Discontinue charge if the battery begins to gas excessively or when the temperature of the electrolyte reaches approximately 120EF. Do not overcharge batteries. Overcharging results in excessive water loss and eventual damage to the battery. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Remove the handle from the back of the charger and attach in a upright position using the four screws provided. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION - This battery charger must be fully assembled before operating. Failure to do so may result in risk of injury. USE OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL: The MINUTES CHARGE timer has an OFF position, a CONTINUOUS CHARGE position and a timed charge range from 0 to 90 minutes. a. OFF - Always make sure the timer is in the OFF position before connecting or disconnecting the clamps from the battery. The 3 charger will not charge with the timer in this position. b. 0 to 90 MINUTES TIMED CHARGE - The timer will automatically turn the charger off at the end of the pre-set charging time. Turn the timer past 20 before setting the desired time. c. CONTINUOUS CHARGE - The timer will not shut the charger OFF while in this position. Extended Charging can be done if the operator is knowledgeable in determining the proper rate and length of charge and monitors the charging process to prevent overcharging. TO CHARGE BATTERIES Make the connections to the battery per the instructions in the previous sections. Determine if the battery is 6 or 12 volts and then set the CHARGE VOLTAGE switch to 6 for a 6 volt battery or 12LO for a 12 volt battery. Turn the timer on and read the AMPERES meter. If a higher rate of charge is desired for charging 12 volt batteries, set the CHARGE VOLTAGE switch the 12HI position to obtain the desired rate. Set the timer the the desired minutes charge. 12 VOLT CRANKING ASSIST Turn off all lights and accessories in the stalled vehicle. Connect the charger to battery per previous instructions. Charge the battery on 12HI for at least five minutes before attempting to start the vehicle. Start the vehicle with the charger connected to the battery. Follow the duty cycle on the unit. NOTE: Do not crank the engine more than 20 seconds in any five minute period; excessive cranking may overheat and damage the starter. If the vehicle fails to start, while waiting for the starter to cool, allow the charger to continue to charge the battery. Turn the switch to OFF and remove the AC power cord from the electric outlet before disconnecting the DC clamps. WIRING DIAGRAM 4 5 MODEL BC-91009 REPAIR PARTS LIST 1.
