MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
177
The Triumph recommended battery
charger will come with a set of battery
connector leads:
▼ A connector lead with ring terminals.
▼ A connector lead with crocodile clips.
A connector lead with a DIN plug is also
available as an accessory from your
Triumph dealer.
For extended periods of storage (beyond
two weeks) the battery should be
removed from the motorcycle and kept
charged using a Triumph approved
maintenance charger.
Similarly, should the battery charge fall
to a level where it will not start the
motorcycle, remove the battery from
the motorcycle before charging.
Should the battery voltage fall below
12.7Volts, the battery should be charged
using a Triumph approved battery
charger. Always remove the battery
from the motorcycle.
To charge the battery, do the following:
▼ We recommend removing the battery
from the motorcycle before charging.
– If the battery needs to be
charged when fitted to the
motorcycle, use the electrical
accessory socket and a suitable
connector lead with DIN plug or
the connector lead with ring
terminals (supplied with the
Triumph recommended battery
charger).
– The connector lead with crocodile
clips must not be used to charge
the battery when it is fitted to the
motorcycle.
▼ Follow the instructions supplied with
the approved battery charger.
▼ Charge the battery with a lower
current than the MAX Charging
Current found on the charging label.
▼ If the battery becomes hot to the
touch, stop charging and allow the
battery to cool before resuming.
▼ After charging, leave the battery for
1 to 2 hours before checking the
voltage. If the voltage is less than
12.9 Volts, additional charging is
necessary.
