MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
13.
After use and before performing maintenance, unplug and disconnect the
13.1
battery charger (see sections 6, 7 and 8).
Use a dry cloth to wipe all battery corrosion and other dirt or oil from the
13.2
battery clips, cords, and the charger case.
Ensure that all of the charger components are in place and in good working
13.3
condition, for example, the plastic boots on the battery clips.
Servicing does not require opening the unit, as there are no user-serviceable
13.4
parts.
All other servicing should be performed by qualified service personal.
13.5
MOVING AND STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
14.
Store the charger unplugged, in an upright position. The cord will still conduct
14.1
electricity until it is unplugged from the outlet.
Store inside, in a cool, dry place.
14.2
Do not store the clips on the handle, clipped together, on or around metal, or
14.3
clipped to cables.
If the charger is moved around the shop or transported to another location,
14.4
take care to avoid/prevent damage to the cords, clips and charger. Failure to
do so could result in personal injury or property damage.
