To charge the batteries, follow this procedure:

1.Put the charger on a flat surface. Make sure the vents on the sides are at least two inches away from walls and other objects. Make sure there are no objects near the vents on the bottom of the charger.

2.When key is off, brake is activated. Make sure key is off.

3.Before charging the batteries the battery compartment needs to be vented. To vent compartment, tip up the recovery tank until it locks in either of the two open positions. See figure 12. To close the tank, pull up on the latch arm and then slowly lower the tank to the closed position.

CAUTION: Before raising tank, be sure tank is empty.

NOTE: There is an intermediate position available for holding the recovery tank open for charging batteries. See figure 13.
