1. Charging Receptacle
The Battery Charge Receptacle (Figure 18), is located on the hood. It accepts a standard,
3 wire, grounded, extension cord and should not exceed the following:
• 12 gauge wire with three wire grounded; 50 feet or less in length.
• 14 gauge wire with three wire grounded; 25 feet or less in length.
NOTE: Never use less than 14 gauge wire to charge your GEM.
Insert the proper grounded extension cord into the battery charger receptacle (Figure
18), and then plug into a 110-volt A/C, 15 amp breaker outlet. A GFI (Ground Fault
Interrupt) receptacle is recommended. An optional GEM GFI cord set is available from
your GEM Dealer or Customer Service if you do not have a GFI receptacle at your
regular recharge site.
CAUTION: Periodically check extension cords for cut, abrasive or loose connections.
Never leave extension cords in standing water. Do not drive over extension cords.
Use the correct gauge extension cord as defi ned above.
An incorrect gauge extension cord could result in a fi re,
heat damage or charger failure.
