2 Amp charge rate: Intended for
charging of small batteries such as
those commonly used in garden
tractors, snowmobiles and motorcycles.
It is not to be used as a trickle charger
for larger batteries.
12 Amp charge rate: Use for charging
automotive batteries, marine starter
batteries and deep cycle batteries. Not
intended for industrial applications and
very large batteries where 20 amp and
greater charge rates are required.
75 Amp engine start: Provides 75
amps for cranking an engine with a
weak or run down battery. Always use in
combination with a battery.
Charging: Both the 2 and 12 amp
charge rates perform an automatic
charge function. During the first few
seconds of operation, an analytical
check of the battery is performed. If the
charger does not detect a properly
connected battery, the red "check" LED
will light continuously until such a "
battery is detected. If a battery will not
accept a normal charge, the charger
will switch to a special mode of
operation designed for such batteries.
Indication of this special mode is the
flashing of the first amber LED in the
charge status display. If successful,
normal charging will resume. If not, a
red LED will blink indicating that
charging has been aborted. When the
amber LED is on but not flashing,
normal charging is in progress. Charge
completion is indicated by a green
LED; at this point the charger has
switched to the Maintain Mode of
operation.
Maintain Mode: When the green LED is
lit, the charger has started Maintain
Mode. This mode of operation is also
known as Float-Mode Monitoring. In this
mode, the charger keeps the battery
fully charged by delivering a small
current, when necessary.
Battery types: The charger offers a se-
lection of three different types of batteries:
• 12 Volt TYPE 1 for most 12 volt Low-
Maintenance, AGM, and Gel Cell
batteries;
• 12 Volt TYPE 2 for 12 volt Deep
Cycle and Maintenance-Free batteries;
• 6 Volt for 6 volt batteries.
