Battery and Fuse Holders
The battery harness includes two fuse holders with fuses (under the caps) to provide protection
in the case of accidental shorting. If this fuse needs replacement, use only a 10-amp
automotive mini fuse. Use of a higher amperage fuse may cause damage in the case of a short
circuit. The PowerFlo 50 unit is shipped with a spare fuse on the inside of the cabinet door.
The battery provided with your PowerFlo 50 Hydration System is a rechargeable, sealed lead-
acid battery. The capacity of this battery is 12V – 7.0 A.H. The battery should have a full or
nearly full charge when you receive the PowerFlo 50 unit, but it is best to recharge the
battery before initial use.
Recharge the battery after each day’s use for the unit to work at its optimal level. The battery
charger has an automatic safety shut-off to prevent your battery from over charging. A fully
charged battery should last through a practice as long as the pump is not continuously running.
To prevent continuous running of the unit, be certain hose valves are turned off when not in
use. Do not allow unit to run dry with an empty tank, causing battery to discharge prematurely
and damaging the pump.
