SAFETY WARNINGS AND

PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: When using tool, basic safety

precautions should always be followed

to reduce the risk of personal injury and

damage to equipment.

Read all instructions before using this

tool!

1. Keep work area clean. Cluttered

areas invite injuries.

2. Observe work area conditions.

Do not use machines or power tools

in damp or wet locations. Don’t

expose to rain. Keep work area well

lighted. Do not use in the presence

of ammable gases or liquids.

3. Keep children away. Children must

never be allowed in the work area.

Do not let them handle this product.

4. Store idle equipment. When not

in use, tools must be stored in a dry

location to inhibit rust. Always lock

up tools and keep out of reach of

children.

5. Use the right tool for the job. Do

not attempt to force a small tool or

attachment to do the work of a larger

industrial tool. There are certain

applications for which this tool was

designed. It will do the job better and

more safely at the rate for which it

was intended. Do not modify this tool

and do not use this tool for a purpose

for which it was not intended.

6. Dress properly. Do not wear

loose clothing or jewelry as they

can be caught in moving parts.

Protective, electrically non-conductive

clothes and non-skid footwear are

recommended when working. Wear

restrictive hair covering to contain

long hair.

7. Wear ANSI-approved splash-

resistant safety goggles.

8. Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times.

9. Maintain tools with care. Keep

tools clean for better and safer

performance. Follow instructions for

lubricating and changing accessories.

Inspect tool cords periodically and, if

damaged, have them repaired by an

authorized technician. The handles

must be kept clean, dry, and free from

oil and grease at all times.

10. Stay alert. Watch what you are

doing, use common sense. Do not

operate any tool when you are tired.

11. Check for damaged parts. Before

using any tool, any part that appears

damaged should be carefully checked

to determine that it will operate

properly and perform its intended

function. Check for alignment and

binding of moving parts; any broken

parts or mounting xtures; and any

other condition that may affect proper

operation. Any part that is damaged

should be properly repaired or

replaced by a qualied technician. Do

not use the tool if any switch does not

turn On and Off properly.

12. Replacement parts and

accessories. When servicing, use

only identical replacement parts.

Use of any other parts will void the

warranty. Only use accessories

intended for use with this tool.

13. Do not operate tool if under the

inuence of alcohol or drugs. Read

warning labels if taking prescription

medicine to determine if your

judgement or reexes are impaired

while taking drugs. If there is any

doubt, do not operate the Jump-Start.

14. Maintenance. For your safety,

maintenance should be performed

regularly by a qualied technician.

15. If you come in contact with battery

acid, immediately wash the effected

area with cool, clean water. Call for

medical assistance and continue

ushing the effected areas until

medical help arrives.

16. The ON/Off switch (See FIGURE 1,

next page) regulates power to the

clamps only. Keep it in the “Off”

position except when jumpstarting.

17. Lead-acid batteries vent hydrogen

gas during normal operation and

charging. Hydrogen is highly

ammable and explosive. Charge

batteries only in a well-ventilated

area.

18. Do not allow the red and black

clamps to come in contact with each

other or the same metal object.

19. When charging, rst connect the red

(+) clamp to the positive (+) battery

terminal.

20. Connect the negative (-) clamp to

a non-moving metal engine part for

negative ground systems.

21. Only use the charger on 12 V

systems on vehicles or boats.

22. Do not use as a replacement for a

vehicle battery.

23. The warnings, cautions, and

instructions discussed in this

instruction manual cannot cover all

possible conditions and situations

that may occur. It must be understood

by the operator that common sense

and caution are factors which cannot

be built into this product, but must be

supplied by the operator.

24. People with pacemakers should

consult their physician(s) before

use. Electromagnetic elds in close

proximity to heart pacemaker could

cause pacemaker interference or

pacemaker failure.

CONTROLS AND

COMPONENTS

CHARGING

Note: After purchase and before initial

use, fully charge the Jump-Start

battery until the DC charging LED

turns off.

WARNING! The ON/Off switch (See

Figure 1) regulates power to the

clamps only. Keep it in the “Off”

position except when jumpstarting.

120 V~ Charging

1. Plug the Power Cord (5) into a wall

outlet and plug the female end of

the Power Cord into the 120V male

Charging Plug of the 120V~ Charging

Port (see Figure 2, above).

2. Before rst use, fully charge the

Jump-Start battery until the DC

Charging LED turns off.

3. After each jump start, fully

recharge the battery until the DC

Charging LED turns off. It may

take up to 48 hours to fully charge

the Jump-Start battery. Check the

progress by pressing the Voltage Test

Switch. The level of battery power

will then display on the Test Meter.

4. Fully recharge Jump Start battery

every 30 days to ensure long

battery life and reliability.

Note: The LED light will go on (when

Switch is in the OFF position) to

indicate a reverse polarity condition.

12 VDC Charging

Note: This system is equipped with a 12

VDC Cigarette Lighter Adapter so you

can charge the Jump-Start from a

vehicle or boat battery. This method

of recharging will not charge the

unit as fully as when using the 120

V~ charging method. Only use this

method in an emergency situation, as

this recharging method may shorten

the life of the Jump-Start.

5. Take out your 12 VDC Cigarette

Lighter Adapter (6). The adapter

has a cigarette lighter plug in one

end of the cord, and a round plug

on the other end. Plug the round

plug into the Recharging Receptacle

(See Figure 3). Plug the cigarette

plug into the vehicle or boat cigarette

lighter receptacle.

6. Charge the unit for the minimal time

needed (to at least 14 volts). Store

the Cigarette Lighter Adapter when

nished.

Note: Charging room temperature: 50oF

- 104oF.

OPERATION

Using the Jump-Start as a 12 VDC

power source

Warning!! The ON/Off switch (See

FIGURE 1) regulates power to the

clamps only. Keep it in the “Off”

position except when jumpstarting.

1. Insert the 12 VDC Cigarette Lighter

plug from the appliance into the 12

VDC Cigarette Lighter Receptacle on

the side of the unit.

Note: Table 2 gives approximate

operating times when beginning with

(not start) and wait a couple of

minutes.

6. Attempt to start the engine for no

more than 5-6 seconds.

least three minutes until trying again.

Repeated attempts may ood the

engine or wear out the engine starter.

If unable to start, replace the battery.

WARNING! Do not let the black and

red clamps touch each other or a

common metal conductor.

8. When the engine is running, switch

off the Jump-Start.

9. Disconnect the Black (-) Clamp and

return it to its position on the Jump-

Start. Then, disconnect the Red (+)

Clamp and return it to its position on

the Jump-Start.

10. After each jump start, fully recharge

the Jump-Start battery until the DC

Charging LED turns off.
