Battery Charging
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
When the battery is being
activated, hydrogen and oxygen
gases in the battery are
extremely explosive. Keep
open sparks and flames away
from the battery at all times,
especially when charging the
battery.
When charging battery, remove
battery vent plugs.
When disconnecting the cable
from the battery, start with
the negative terminal first.
When connecting the cable
to the battery, start with the
positive terminal first.
Do not check battery charge
by placing a metal object across
the terminals. Use a voltmeter
or hydrometer.
1.
Make sure each electrolyte level is to the
bottom of vent wells, if necessary add
distilled water in a well-ventilated area.
2.
The water in the electrolyte evaporates
during recharging. Liquid shortage
damages the battery. Excessive liquid
spills over and damages the excavator
body.
3.
To slow charge the battery, connect the
battery positive terminal to the charge
positive terminal and the negative to the
negative, then recharge in the standard
fashion.
4.
A boost charge is only for emergencies.
It will partially charge the battery at a
high rate and in a short time.
When using a boost-charged battery, it is
necessary to recharge the battery as
early as possible.
Failure to do this will shorten the battery’s
service life.
5.
When the specific gravity of electrolyte
falls between 1.27 and 1.29 charge has
completed.
6.
When exchanging an old battery for a
new one, use a battery of equal
specification.
