OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Dry Battery Filling and

Charging Instructions

1Remove the battery vent caps and permanently remove the plastic seal from the battery vent openings.

2Fill each cell with battery acid (electrolyte) until the level is sufficient to cover the plates.

Do not fill to maximum level until the battery charge cycle is complete. Overfilling can cause the battery acid to overflow during charging. Neutralize battery acid spills with baking soda and water.

3Install the battery vent caps.

4Charge the battery.

5Check the battery acid level when the charging cycle is complete. Replenish with distilled water to the bottom of the fill tube. Do not overfill.

To Charge Battery

1Be sure the batteries are connected before charging the batteries.

2Open the turntable covers. The covers should remain open for the entire charging cycle.

3Remove the battery vent caps and check the battery acid level. If necessary, add only enough distilled water to cover the plates. Do not overfill prior to the charge cycle.

4Replace the battery vent caps.

5Connect the battery charger to a grounded AC circuit.

6Turn the battery charger on.

7The charger will indicate when the battery is fully charged.

8Check the battery acid level when the charging cycle is complete. Replenish with distilled water to the bottom of the fill tube. Do not overfill.

Voltage Conversion

Some battery chargers are equipped with a multifunction fuse, which enables the operator to switch between 110-120 volts and 220-240 volts.

1 Locate the fuse drawer module on the front of the battery charger.

2To change voltage, pull the fuse drawer out, flip it over so the desired voltage range reads right side up, and return the drawer to the slot.

3Check that the triangle next to the desired voltage range points to the triangle printed on

the lip of the module.
