Do not overfill batteries. The charge cycle will expel electrolyte and cause component damage.
Before charging, the following must be observed:
• The electrolyte level in all cells must be at the recommended level and above the plates.
• The charging must occur in an area with good ventilation to remove hydrogen gas that is made
during the charge cycle. A minimum of five air replacements for each hour is recommended.
• The charger connector components must be in good condition and free from dirt and particles.
• The charger connector must be completely installed in the vehicle receptacle.
• The charger connector and cord set must be protected from damage. The charger connector and
cord set must be used in an area where it is not possible for personnel to run over or trip over the
cord set.
• The charger automatically turns off during the connect and disconnect cycle so no electrical arc is
generated at the DC plug and receptacle contacts.
