The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post. b. Attach at least a 24 inch long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post. c. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) charger clamp to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of the battery. d. Position yourself and the free end of the cable as far away from the battery as possible, then connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clamp to the free end of cable. e. Do not face the battery when making the final connection. f. When disconnecting the charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure, and break the first connection while standing as far away from the battery as practical. g. A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it on board requires equipment specially designed for marine use. 19. GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS The charger should be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock. This charger is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. DANGER. Never alter the AC cord or plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock. This battery charger is for use on a nominal 120volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in FIGURE (A). A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in FIGURE (C), may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle, as shown in FIGURE (B), until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. DANGER. Before using an adapter as illustrated, be certain that the center screw of the outlet plate is grounded. The green-colored rigid ear or lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a properly grounded outlet - make certain it is grounded. If necessary, replace the original outlet cover plate screw with a longer screw that will secure the adapter ear or lug to the outlet cover plate and make ground connection to grounded outlet. 2 NOTE: USE OF AN ADAPTER IS NOT ALLOWED IN CANADA. IF A GROUNDING TYPE RECEPTACLE IS NOT AVAILABLE, DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE UNTIL THE PROPER OUTLET IS INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. 20. CHARGE PERIOD The approximate required time to bring a battery to full charge state depends upon the number of ampere-hours (AH) depleted from the battery. AH's are determined by multiplying the number of hours times the number of amps supplied by a battery to a load and normally indicated on the battery. For example, if a load was connected to a battery, which drew 7 amps for a period of 5 hours, the battery will have supplied 35 AH. The approximate recharge time would then be calculated by dividing the 35 AH depleted from the battery, by the charge rate of the charger. To allow for tapering of the charge rate add 25 percent to the charge time. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The Model 9409 INTELLAMATIC™ battery charger is designed to charge 12 volt and 6 volt lead-acid batteries of conventional, maintenance- free, or deep cycle construction. This charger will charge both large and small batteries, such as motorcycle and garden tractor batteries. The battery charger will automatically adjust the charging current appropriate to the type of battery. a. Follow the steps under DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS in section 16 when connecting the clamps to the battery. The charger has a "no- spark attachment" feature, however for maximum safety follow the DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS. b. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded electric outlet. c. The RED indicator lamp will turn on when the battery charger is charging the battery. If the light does not turn on check the output clamps on the battery terminals for proper polarity. The red clamp should be connected to the positive terminal of the battery. If the connections are reversed, unplug the battery charger from electric outlet, and reverse the connections following the DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS and plug the power cord into the electric outlet. If the indicator lamp still does not light the charger requires service, unplug the charger's AC power cord and disconnect the charger from the battery. d. The indicator lamp will begin to blink when the battery is fully charged. The battery charger will stop charging and continuously monitor the battery. The clamps may be removed and the battery is ready for use. ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE CHARGER FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET WHEN NOT IN USE. e. If you wish to maintain a battery for an extended period such as winter storage, weekend use only, etc., follow the charging steps above and leave the charger connected to the battery. The charger will automatically turn on when needed to maintain the battery at a full charge. It is recommended that the bat...
