DO NOT leave the unit in a totally discharged state for an extended period of time as this may result in permanent damage to the battery.

1.3.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY (with respect to mains chargers)
WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to check the following:
You must check the AC adaptor to ensure that it is safe before using. You must inspect the power supply lead, plugs and all
electrical connections for wear and damage.
You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate
safety devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We recommend that
an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products
that plug into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You can obtain a Residual
Current Device through your Sealey dealer.
You must read and understand instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.3.1. The
Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified
person, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.3.2. The
Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance and
the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.3.3.
DO ensure that the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply.
1.3.4.
DO ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.3.5.
DO regularly inspect power supply, leads, plugs for wear and damage and power connections to ensure that none is loose.
1.3.6.
DO check product voltage is the same as power supply to be used.
2. INTRODUCTION AND SPECIFICATION
2.1. Designed and manufactured in America. These units are produced from strong and durable composite material and fitted with a
Hawker (Enersys) battery, known for high quality output. Heavy-duty sleeve fitted to the base increases the unit's durability and
resistance to outside forces. A fusible link in the charging cable gives added protection to the unit and makes for an easy fuse
change without dissembling the unit. Includes a ventilation fan which has been designed to power up when the unit has been
switched on, helping to prevent overheating and damage to the battery. There is a 15A thermal trip integrated inside the 12V
accessory socket, which when activated will self-reset. An Audible Warning System (AWS) is fitted to aid and warn/advise on the unit's
current status. For example, when Model No. RS21224 is switched to 24V mode, the AWS will sound four times to make the user
aware of their output choice. All units include a switch mode charging unit which keeps the battery fully charged without decreasing its
power and at the same time helping to extend battery life. Simple touch technology shows battery charge percentage at the press of a
button.
