5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! YOU MUST FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND ENSURE THAT THE POWERSTART AND VEHICLE VOLTAGES ARE THE SAME.
5.1.
Before use, press the test button to confirm that the Powerstart is charged (see 4.1.).
5.2.
Apply the vehicle hand brake and select neutral gear (or 'Park' if automatic transmission). Turn ignition and
electrical accessories off.
5.3.
Use in a well ventilated area and wear protective eye shields and clothing.
WARNING! Do not allow the red and black clamps to touch each other once the leads are connected to the Powerstart. Ensure that
#
the correct clamps are placed on the correct battery terminals.
5.4.
With the leads disconnected from the Powerstart attach the positive (RED +) clamp to the positive terminal on the vehicle battery.
Ensure that the terminal is clean.
Note:
On vehicles with multiple batteries connect positive clamp to positive battery terminal which is connected to vehicle electrical system.
5.5.
Attach the negative (BLACK -) clamp to the (ground) engine block or frame of the vehicle. Ensure that the cables are not in the path of
moving engine parts, such as the fan, and are away from the battery, carburettor/injection system, fuel lines etc.
5.6.
Confirm that the green LED at the lead connector (fig. 2.1) is illuminated. If the red LED is illuminated then the clamps are cross-connected
and must be reversed.
5.7.
With the Powerstart control switch (fig. 1.D) set to 'Off' plug the leads into the socket (fig. 1.C). Note that the connector will only fit the
socket one way round, to prevent cross-connection.
5.8.
On models Powerstart 350 and Powerstart 500 turn the control switch (fig. 1.D) to select
12 or 24V to match the vehicle voltage. To select 24V the switch knob must be pulled out
and then turned.
On model Powerstart 200 turn the switch (fig. 1.D) to select 12V.
5.9.
Make sure that no one is standing near the battery. When all is OK, start the engine.
5.10.
Once the vehicle has started, turn the control switch (fig. 1.D) to 'Off' and then disconnect the leads
from the Powerstart.
5.11.
Remove the lead clamps from the battery terminal and the earthing point.
IMPORTANT: If the vehicle does not start within six seconds, DO NOT continue cranking.
Let the Powerstart's internal battery(ies) cool for three minutes before attempting to start the
vehicle again. Failure to do so may damage the unit.
5.12.
After use, immediately recharge the Powerstart as described in 4.2.
# WARNING! BEFORE CHARGING THIS UNIT, DISCONNECT THE OUTPUT LEADS FROM THE UNIT AS THEY WILL REMAIN "LIVE"

# WARNING! The warnings, cautions and instructions discussed in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and
