Battery Charger Operation
WARNING
Before performing any maintenance, adjustment or service, turn power
OFF and remove key from ignition.
NEVER allow any of your tools and/or battery cable(s) to contact BOTH
battery terminal(s)/post(s) at the same time. An electrical short may occur
and serious personal injury or damage may occur.
The use of rubber gloves and chemical goggles and face shield is
recommended when working with batteries.
Always use a battery lifting strap when lifting a battery. It is the most
convenient method and assures that the battery acid will not spill. It also
helps to prolong the life of the battery.
DO NOT tip the batteries. Keep the batteries in an upright position.
Invacare strongly recommends that battery installation and battery
replacement always be done by a qualified technician.
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure all
attaching hardware is tightened securely - otherwise injury or damage may
result.
CAUTION
When connecting the battery cables to the battery(ies), the battery cable(s)
MUST be connected to the battery terminal(s)/post(s) as shown in FIGURE
2, otherwise damage to the battery may result.
For proper battery connection batteries MUST use post style terminals
with mounting holes through the terminal.
NOTE: If there is battery acid on the rear frame or on the sides of the batteries, apply baking soda
to these areas to neutralize the battery acid. Before reinstalling the NEW or existing battery(ies),
clean the baking soda from the battery tray or battery(ies).
