any way.

or filling a battery.

21. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN A VEHICLE. A SPARK
NEAR BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A
SPARK NEAR A BATTERY:
CAUTION
a. Position AC and DC cords to reduce risk of damage by hood, door or moving engine parts.
b. Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys and other parts that can cause injury to
persons.
c. Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a
larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) post.
d. Identify if you have a negative or positive grounded vehicle. This can be done
by identifying which battery post NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) OR POSITIVE (POS, P, +)
is connected to the chassis.
e. For a negative grounded vehicle: connect the RED POSITIVE (POS, P, +) cable
clamp or ring terminal first to the positive post of the battery, then connect the
BLACK NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) cable clamp or ring terminal to the vehicle’s
chassis. Do not connect the black negative (NEG, N, –) cable clamp to metal fuel
lines or anywhere in proximity of the carburetor or the battery itself. Connect to
a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
f. For a positive grounded vehicle: connect the BLACK NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) cable
clamp or ring terminal first to the negative post of the battery, then connect the
RED POSITIVE (POS, P, +) cable clamp or ring terminal to the vehicle’s chassis. Do
not connect the red positive (POS, P, +) cable clamp to metal fuel lines or anywhere
in proximity of the carburetor or the battery itself. Connect to a heavy gauge metal
part of the frame or engine block.
g. Connect charger AC supply cord to a properly grounded fault protected electric outlet.
