GRX-5100 HEV Battery Service Tool
IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT BEFORE USING YOUR
GRX-5100, YOU READ THIS MANUAL AND FOLLOW THE
SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
Hazardous voltage.
Can result in electric shock when the
protective covers are removed.
Circuit boards, test points, and output volt-
ages also may be oating above (below)
chassis ground.
This GRX-5100 is designed for indoor use
only.
1. Maintenance
• Periodic inspection and care are highly recommended,
especially if the GRX-5100 is operating in a harsh environ-
ment.
• Inspect signs of overheating, rust paint deterioration,
and general condition of the unit. If corrective measures
should be taken, contact the Special Service Tools hotline
(1-800-933-8335) for service information.
• Removal of dust, dirt, and debris from the external enclo-
sure surfaces is encouraged and may be performed while
the unit is in operation.
IMPORTANT: There are no user-serviceable parts
inside the GRX-5100. At no time should person-
nel remove any cover.
• Ensure that the AC power line ground is connected prop-
erly to the GRX-5100 input connector or chassis. Similarly,
other power ground lines including those to application
and maintenance equipment must be grounded properly
for both personnel and equipment safety.
• In normal operation, the operator does not have access
to hazardous voltages within the chassis. However, de-
pending on the user's application conguration, HIGH
VOLTAGES HAZARDOUS TO HUMAN SAFETY may be nor-
mally generated on the output terminals. The customer/
user must ensure that the output power lines are labeled
properly as to the safety hazards and that any inadvertent
contact with hazardous voltages is eliminated.
• This GRX-5100 is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabili-
ties, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
GRX-5100 by a person responsible for their safety.
Risk of explosive gases
Batteries generate explosive gases during normal
operation, and when discharged or charged.
1.1 To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these safety
instructions and those published by the battery manu-
facturer and the manufacturer of any equipment you in-
tend to use in the vicinity of a battery. Review cautionary
marking on these products and on the engine, and on the
vehicle or equipment containing the battery.
Charging a non-rechargeable battery may
cause the battery to burst.
To reduce the risk of injury, only charge rechargeable
type batteries.
If you are uncertain as to the type of battery you are attempting
to charge, or the correct procedure for checking the battery’s
state of charge, contact the seller or battery manufacturer.
1.2 Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the
GRX-5100 manufacturer may result in a risk of re, electric
shock, or injury to persons.
1.3 To reduce risk of damage to the electric plug and cord,
pull by the plug rather than by the cord when disconnect-
ing the GRX-5100.
1.4 Do not operate the GRX-5100 if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any way;
contact the Special Service Tools hotline (1-800-933-
8335).
1.5
Do not disassemble the GRX-5100; when repair is required
contact
the Special Service Tools hotline (1-800-933-8335)
(see back cover of this manual for more information). In-
correct reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or
re.
1.6 To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the GRX-5100 from
the AC outlet or auxiliary 12VDC power cord before at-
tempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning o the
controls will not reduce this risk.
