the battery charger from the mains before you 
make or break the connections to the battery.
-   First connect the clamp that is not connected 

to vehicle bodywork, then connect the other 
clamp to the vehicle bodywork at a point 
away from the battery and the fuel line. After 
this is done, you can connect the battery 
charger to the mains. 

-   After charging, disconnect the battery charg-

er from the mains. Then disconnect the clamp 
attached to the vehicle bodywork before you 
disconnect the clamp from the battery.
