| 1. Cross-section of cables for starting an internal combustion gasoline engine with a displacement of 2.5 liters should be 16 mm 2 (diameter about 5 mm). In diesel engines or gasoline engines larger than 2.5 liters of a cross section of the wires must be at least 25 mm 2. In this cross-sectional size is determined by the volume of motor car with the discharged battery. The size of the cross-section is usually printed on the launch cables. It should acquire starting cables with insulated clamps and a cross-section of 25 mm 2, since they are also suitable for engines with a smaller swept volume. |
| 2. A discharged battery can freeze even at -10 ?� C. Before connecting cables starting a frozen battery must be thawed. |
| 3. A discharged battery must be connected to the onboard network according to the rules. |
| 4. Check the electrolyte level in the battery is discharged, if necessary, add distilled water. |
| 5. Machinery positioned so that they do not touch the body. Otherwise, when connecting the positive pole has a current will flow. |
| 6. Tighten both cars brake. Transmissions put in neutral. Automatic clutch set to "P". |
| 7. Switch off all electrical consumers. |
| 8. The motor car donor should work at idle. |
9. Start the cables connected in the following order (see. Fig. Connection of starting cables):
- (1) - the red cable to the positive terminal of the discharged battery (A);
- (2) - the other end of the red cable to the positive pole of the battery of the donor (B);
- (3) - the black cable to minus pole of the battery of the donor;
- (4) - the other end of the black cable to connect to a secure "mass" (X) to start the machine, in order to avoid leakage of the "masses". It is best suited for this reliable Screwed metal piece with the engine or the engine block itself. Under unfavorable conditions, the connection cable to the negative pole of the discharged battery could result in arcing and explosion of the battery as a result of allocation of detonating gas. |
| 10. Once again check the reliability of mounting clamps. Pay attention to the fact that the start cables do not touch moving parts such as the radiator fan. |
A warning  Clips starter cables should not be connected with the panels touch each other or positive terminals must not touch the machine weight (body or frame).
|
| 11. Start the engine of the machine with the discharged battery, and so to work. When you start not to include a starter more than 10 seconds, as the clips are heated by passing a large current. Therefore, between runs do "pause cooling" at least 30 seconds. |
| 12. The motor car donor should start during idling, in order to avoid failure of the generator as a result of the formation of peak currents during startup. If turns are plummeting, you can add gas. |
| 13. Do not use open fire or smoke near the battery during start-up, since the battery out of the combustible gases. |
| 14. Do not lean over the battery. Risk of chemical burns! |
| 15. After starting, disconnect the cables in the reverse order: first cable (-) to disconnect from the start the machine, then the machine-donor. Red cable car at the beginning of the donor, and then run the machine on. |
A warning If you do not follow the prescribed instructions on connecting cables, there is a risk of chemical burns due to release of the battery electrolyte. In addition, there is a risk of injury as a result of the explosion of the battery. It is also possible damage to electrical systems in both vehicles.
