Charging the Battery

Charging the Battery is a simple process. Leave the Battery in your DR ROTO-HOG POWER TILLER when you charge it.

1.Attach the Black (-) alligator clipped wire from the Charger Adapter to the (-) terminal of the Battery, then attach the Red (+) alligator clipped wire to the (+) Battery terminal.

2.Plug the Charger into a standard wall outlet.

•Typically, the Battery takes between 6 and 8 hours to fully charge. The Battery does not have a “memory”; so don’t worry about overcharging the Battery or charging it too often.

•You can charge the Battery many times. The Battery lasts longer if you charge it before it is fully drained. Keep it fully charged and at room temperature when not using your DR ROTO-HOG POWER TILLER.

•Once the Battery is charged, pull the plug from the wall outlet and then remove the Charger from your Battery. However, you can leave your Battery plugged in and charging for an extended period.

•Store the Charger in its self-locking plastic shipping bag. Keep the Charger in a dry location.

•If the Battery does not hold its charge for very long under normal conditions or it simply won’t hold a charge, then replace it. You can purchase replacement Batteries directly from us. To install your new Battery, detach the cables, remove the Battery Clamp, and remove the dead Battery. Next, install the new Battery, replace the Battery Clamp, and attach the cables. Refer to the assembly instructions for more details on page 14.

WHEN THE BATTERY GETS OLD AND NO LONGER ACCEPTS A CHARGE, REMOVE IT FROM YOUR DR ROTO-HOG POWER TILLER. NEVER LEAVE A DEAD BATTERY IN YOUR MACHINE.
