Connecting to a Vehicle Lead Acid Battery
Note: During first use, you will notice a little smoke and/or a burning smell coming from the unit. This is normal and will stop after a short burn-in period.
Before testing make sure the battery terminals are really clean as grease and dust could lead to errors in the test results. The battery MUST be disconnected prior to cleaning. Check the battery and connections for any cracks or damage before proceeding with cleaning and testing. To help ensure a good connection of the battery load tester clamps, clean the battery terminals with a solution of baking soda and water, and wipe the battery terminals with a cloth to remove any dirt, grease and any residual water.
- Turn off vehicle ignition, all electronics and any loads.
- With the vehicle engine turned off, connect the red positive terminal clamp to the positive (+) pole on your vehicles 12V or 6V lead acid battery.
- Connect the black negative terminal clamp to the negative (−) pole on your vehicles battery.


Disconnecting from a Vehicle Battery
- Remove the black negative terminal clamp from the negative (−) pole of your vehicle battery.
- Remove the red positive terminal clamp from the positive (+) pole of the vehicle battery.

2. BATTERY ANALYSIS
Check the battery terminal clamps are correctly connected to the lead acid battery. Twist the clamps slightly to ensure a good connection.
6V Battery Analysis
- Confirm battery voltage is in the green "OK" area of the 6V Range area. If it is not in the OK range, disconnect the battery and recharge before retesting.

- Press and hold the load switch in the ON (-) position for a maximum of 10 seconds while reading the meter. The needle should remain in the green area, if it does not, the battery is weak or bad.


WARNING! TO PREVENT OVERHEATING, ALLOW UNIT TO COOL FOR 5 MINUTES BEFORE DEPRESSING THE LOAD SWITCH AGAIN IF FURTHER TESTING IS REQUIRED.
12V Battery Analysis
- Confirm battery Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) on the meter that matches the CCA rating of the battery being tested.

- Press and hold the load switch ON (-) position for a maximum of 10 seconds while reading the meter. The needle should indicate the approximate capacity (for 12V batteries 200-1000CCA), refer to Battery Analysis table in this manual or on the label.


WARNING! TO PREVENT OVERHEATING, ALLOW UNIT TO COOL FOR 5 MINUTES BEFORE DEPRESSING THE LOAD SWITCH AGAIN IF FURTHER TESTING IS REQUIRED.
Testing the Charging System
With the battery terminal clamps correctly connected to your vehicles Lead Acid Battery and all electronic accessories off.

WARNING! DO NOT PRESS THE LOAD SWITCH DURING THIS TEST.

WARNING! ENSURE LOAD TESTER AND CABLES ARE CLEAR OF ANY MOVING PARTS.
-
Start the engine and accelerate to 1200 - 1500 rpm.
-
Confirm reading is in the green "OK" position in the Charging Test Range area.
-
Turn on the headlights and fan motor on high, the meter should remain in the green "OK" area.
-
If the reading is in the red area or outside the charging system zone, the alternator may be defective.

Testing the Vehicles Starter Motor
This will identify excessive starter current draw, which makes starting difficult and potentially shortens battery life. It is best to load test the battery before starter motor test to ensure the battery is in good condition. If the battery tests either weak or bad, this test cannot be performed.
Note: The vehicles engine must be off and at normal operating temperature.

WARNING! DO NOT PRESS THE LOAD SWITCH DURING THIS TEST.
-
Perform a load voltage test to confirm battery's state of charge reading is in the green "OK position and note the exact voltage.
-
Using the load voltage obtained in step 1, refer to the meter to select the minimum cranking voltage. Apply next higher minimum crank volts for engines with less than 200 CID.
- For example, if the load voltage is 11.00, use 10.2 for the minimum cranking volts instead of 9.7.

-
The vehicles ignition must be disabled so the engine will not start. (Refer to the vehicle's instruction manual or contact a automotive professional technician for advice). The test works best if the starter cranks for 2 to 5 seconds.
-
With an assistant cranking the engine, view the meter voltage reading.
-
If the cranking volts during the test is less than the minimum cranking volts selected from the table, the starter current draw is excessive. If the starter cranks slowly, check for high resistance or poor connections.
OPERATION (cont.)
| BATTERY ANALYSIS | |
| LOAD TEST BATTERY CONDITION | |
| Good (Green) Battery | capacity is OK. Battery may or may not be fully charged. Check specific gravity of battery to determine state of charge, check the electrical drain or possible charging system trouble. |
| Weak or Bad, but the Needle remains steady (Yellow or Red) | Battery capacity is not satisfactory. Battery may be either defective or not fully charged. Check specific gravity to determine which condition exists. If charging does not bring specific gravity to full charge level, battery should be replaced. |
| Weak or Bad, but the Needle continues to fall (Yellow or Red) | Battery may be either defective or very run down. Release the Load Test Switch and note volt meter reaction. Voltage recovery to 12 volt or above within seconds indicates a defective battery. Slow voltage recovery indicates run down condition. For best results, check specific gravity. |
MAINTENANCE
- If the enclosure of the battery load tester requires cleaning, do not use solvents. Use a moist, soft cloth only. Never immerse any part of the Battery load tester into liquid.
- Keep terminal clamps clean and dry at all times.
