Have the battery checked.
Circuit breaker cycles when current
draw is too high. Check for shorted
cables or clips and replace if
necessary.
The battery may not want to accept
a charge due to a run-down state.
Allow charging to continue until
battery has a chance to recover
suf ciently to take a charge. If more
than 20 minutes, stop charging and
have the battery checked.
Shut the charger off and correct the
lead connections.
No problem; this is a normal
condition.
Have charger checked by a quali ed

Crank time varies with the amount of
current drawn. If cranking draws more

the next crank.
Check for poor connection at battery
and frame.
Check power cord and extension
cord for loose tting plug.
Check for open fuse or circuit
breaker supplying AC outlet.
The thermal protector may have
tripped and needs a little longer to
reset. Make sure the charger vents
are not blocked. Wait and try again.
On a severely discharged battery,
charge for 10 to 15 minutes in the
manual charge rate to help assist in
cranking.
Check for open fuse or circuit breaker
supplying AC outlet.
Replace fuse (15 Amp fuse).
Check power cord and extension
cord for loose tting plug.
