6.2.1 Charging the battery
Connect battery and charger terminals positive to positive and negative to negative
Warning: Battery releases explosive gas during charging. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Note:
1. Standard charging current: 0.6 A for 5~10 hours.
2. Quick charging current: 6.0 A for 30 minutes.
3. Do not use quick charge except for emergency as battery life can be shortened.
4. Measure the battery voltage 30 minutes after battery is charged. The battery
voltage should be higher than 12.8 V.
6.2.2 Rectifier
Note:
(1) Check if wire harness is undamaged before checking rectifier and end
resistor. Check if rectifier connectors are secure.
(2) Keep fingers away from tester probe. The circuit resistance measurement can be
invalidated with body resistance included.
