E-INS-MX5BELTBATT-B-ARC MX5 Belt Battery System Installation Instructions
Charging the Belt Battery Important: Disconnect the MX5 from the Belt Battery before continuing with this
procedure.
The Belt Battery Charger is an automatic shutoff charger. When it is plugged in, a red LED on the
Belt Battery Charger indicates the unit is charging the Belt Battery. When the battery reaches a
predetermined voltage, the digital control circuit cuts the charging circuit and the red LED goes
off. When the voltage drops below the predetermined voltage, the red LED illuminates.
While the Belt Battery Charger and the Belt Battery are connected to an external AC power
source, the Belt Battery voltage is continually maintained above a predetermined voltage.
A blinking red LED is expected at the end of a charge cycle. When the red LED is off for at least
ten seconds between blinks, the Belt Battery is fully charged. When the Belt Battery is fully
charged, disconnect the Belt Battery Charger from the Belt Battery.
