HYDROLINK™ WATERING SYSTEM WITH SNAKE™ TUBING
9
8 OPERATION
For continued successful operation of your HydroLink Watering System always:
1. Use only an approved Flow-Rite water supply (visit www.trojanbattery.com/products/hydrolink-watering-
system/water-supplies/ for a list of approved Flow-Rite water supplies).
IMPORTANT: Use of unapproved water supply or modification of approved water supply can
lead to system failure and will void your HydroLink warranty.
2. Always follow Trojan Battery’s required battery watering procedures.
3. Perform regular scheduled maintenance.
WARNING! ONLY FILL BATTERIES AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN FULLY CHARGED, AND
REQUIRE WATER. WATERING A BATTERY BEFORE CHARGE (OR WITH A LOW CHARGE
LEVEL) CAN LEAD TO BOIL OVER RESULTING IN POTENTIAL BODILY INJURY
AND POTENTIAL DAMAGE TO THE WATERING SYSTEM, BATTERY AND VEHICLE.
IMPORTANT: If you are using a Flow-Rite Hand Pump or Gravity Feed water supply to fill your
HydroLink Watering System, please refer to Flow-Rite’s instructions for proper operation!
IMPORTANT: The HydroLink vent is not intended to be removed once installed. Should the
HydroLink vent need to be removed, it must be done so carefully, as to not damage the vent
and the float. The Snake tubing would need to be removed first. To help release the vent, a
rocking motion from front to back can be used. Then pry the HydroLink vent upwards. Once
the HydroLink vent releases, it should be removed in a vertical lifting motion.
Do not reuse a HydroLink vent when replacing a battery. A new vent should always be
installed with a new battery.
Any HydroLink vent that gets damaged upon removal should be replaced to ensure HydroLink
Watering System integrity and functionality.
9 REGULATED HOSE AND DEIONIZER OPERATION
STEP 1 - QUALIFY WATER SUPPLY
î Check flow rate through included purger by mating purger
with hose end assembly. Verify that a minimum of 2 GPM
(Gallons per minute) is achieved. This can be measured with a
bucket and a stop watch or watch with a second hand.
NOTE: Should a 2 GPM flow rate not be produced refer to the
troubleshooting guide in your Flow-Rite water supply’s instruction booklet.
