Occasionally it may be necessary to jump start a weak battery. If jump
starting is necessary the following procedure is recommended to prevent
starter damage, battery damage, and personal injury.
Jump starting a battery incorrectly can cause the battery to explode result-
ing in severe personal injury or death. Do not smoke or allow any ignition
sources near the battery and do not start a frozen battery.
Electrical arcing can cause severe personal injury.
Do not allow positive and negative cable ends to touch.
1. Use a battery of the same voltage (12V) as is used with your engine.
2. Attach one end of the positive booster cable (red) to the positive (+) ter-
minal of the booster battery. Attach the other end to the terminal of your
engine battery.
3. Attach one end of the negative booster cable (black) to the negative (-)
terminal on the booster. Attach the other end of the negative cable to your
engine battery.
4. Jump starting in any other manner may result in damage to the battery or
the electrical system.
Over cranking the engine can cause starter damage.
Allow 5 minutes for starter to cool if engaged for more than 15 seconds.
When using lights or high amperage draw accessories,
idle the engine for a period of 20 minutes to bring the battery to charge state.
