This battery charger is a pulse type designed to provide a quality charge
current into the battery. The voltage measured at the outlet should be 8-12
VDC. This is normal and does not indicate a faulty charging system.
To recharge 12 Volt batteries, proceed as follows:
• Check fluid level in all battery cells. If necessary, add ONLY distilled
water to cover separators in battery cells. Do not use tap water.
• If the battery is equipped with vent caps, make sure they are installed
and are tight.
• If necessary, clean battery terminals.
• Connect battery charge cable connector plug to panel receptacle
identified by the words "12-VOLT D.C."
• Connect battery charge cable clamp with red handle to the positive (+)
battery terminal.
• Connect battery charge cable clamp with black handle to the negative
(-) battery terminal.
• Start engine. Let the engine run while battery recharges. Engine idle
control switch must be in off position for battery charging.
• When battery has charged, shut down engine.
Use an automotive hydrometer to test battery state of charge and
condition. Follow the hydrometer manufacturer's instructions carefully.
Generally, a battery is considered to be at 100% state of charge when
specific gravity of its fluid (as measured by hydrometer) is 1.260 or
higher.
