BATTERY SERVICE:
The Battery has been filled with electrolyte and
charged at the factory. However, prior to actual
operation, it may be necessary to bring the Battery
to a full charge as follows:
1. First disconnect the black negative (-) cable,
then disconnect the red positive (+) cable.
CAUTION
Electrolyte gases are explosive and can
cause serious injury to eyes, lungs, and
skin. Nausea may result if the gases are
inhaled.
Wear safety goggles and rubber gloves
when working with electrolyte or battery.
Charge the Battery in a well ventilated
place so gases produced while charging
can dissipate.
Unplug charger from electrical outlet
before connecting to or disconnecting
charger leads from battery posts.
Since the gases are explosive, keep open
flames and electrical spark away from the
battery; DO NOT SMOKE!
WARNING
Connecting cables to the wrong post
could cause the battery to explode,
resulting in personal injury and damage
to the electrical system.
Make sure Battery Cables do not interfere
or rub on any moving or hot parts.
2. Connect a 3 to 4 amp battery charger to the
Battery Posts. Charge the Battery at a rate of 3 to
4 amperes for 4 to 8 hours.
3. When Battery is charged, disconnect the
charger from electrical outlet and battery posts.
IMPORTANT! If optional electric powered
equipment is to be installed on the MULTI PRO
®
5500, DO NOT connect the battery cables until
all wiring harness connections for the optional
equipment have been completed. If
accidentally grounded, the lead to the battery
terminal will burn the accessory's wiring
harness. After the accessory's wiring harness
has been connected, proceed as follows:
4. Connect the red positive (+) cable to the
positive (+) post on the battery first, then connect
the black negative (-) cable to the negative (-)
post on the battery. Secure with cap screws and
nuts. Slide the rubber boot over the positive
terminal to prevent short-out from occurring.
