M. Battery Charger
NOT RECOMMENDED FOR USE WITH GEL PACK,
SEALED OR SMALL (MOTORCYCLE) BATTERIES.
This generator contains an additional circuit used for battery
charging purposes. A DC accessory receptacle is provided on the
control panel. A battery charging cable equipped with a matching
plug for this receptacle has been supplied with the unit. Line up
metal prongs on plug with arrows on receptacle to secure.
The battery charger on this generator is referred to as an
unregulated taper charger - the most widely used in the market today.
The amount of current flowing will depend on the charging voltage
and battery's state of charge. As the battery becomes more fully
charged, the output current to the battery decreases and nearly
becomes constant. Taper chargers are intended to be used with the
provision that they will be disconnected from the battery after a
maximum time on charge. Normally a period of 30 to 120 minutes is
sufficient to recharge a weak battery. The charge level of the battery
should be checked periodically.
CAUTION: This battery charging system is
intended to recharge weak batteries, not to "boost
start" vehicles. Do not overcharge battery or leave
battery unattended.
Note: When the battery charger circuit is in use, the AC
capacity is reduced by 96 watts. Make sure the combined load is
within the rated limits.
Before charging a storage battery, check the electrolyte fluid
level in all the cells. Add distilled water to each cell, if necessary, to
bring the level back up to the manufacturer's required level.
WARNING: Storage batteries give off
EXPLOSIVE hydrogen gas while charging. Do not
allow smoking, open flames, sparks, or spark
producing equipment in the area while charging.
TOOLS REQUIRED: 8mm sockets and ratchets.

HANDLE INSTALLATION

1. Place handle assembly (items 1 and 2) under engine, as shown in
the diagram.
2. Slide M8 x 35 bolt (item 6) through handle and engine as shown
in diagram and secure with M8 washer (item 5), M8 lock washer
(item 4), and M8 lock nut (item 3). Tighten until handle is
securely clamped to the engine.

GENERATOR FEATURES
Use cables approved for battery charging. Connect a red clip to
the positive terminal of the battery. Connect a black clip to the
negative terminal of the battery. Connect the other end of the cable
to the DC accessory receptacle on the generator panel. After the
battery is fully charged, remove the battery charging cable from the
generator and then disconnect from the battery posts.
N. DC Circuit Protector
The maximum current available from the battery charger circuit
is 8 amps. A DC circuit protector has been provided to protect the
circuit from overloads. If an overload occurs, the circuit protector
will trip. The circuit protector may be reset by pushing the button of
the protector. The battery's maximum rate of charge will eventually
reduce to less than 8 amps as the battery approaches a 100 percent
state of charge.
Charging a large capacity battery or a totally discharged battery
may cause the DC breaker to turn off. In these cases, a separate
battery charger unit connected to an AC power source is
recommended instead of the DC receptacle on the generator.

WARNING: Battery electrolyte fluid is comprised
of sulfuric acid that can be very dangerous and
cause severe burns. Do not allow this fluid to
contact eyes, skin, clothing, etc. If contact or
spillage does occur, flush the area with water
immediately.
WARNING: Do not continue to charge a
battery that becomes hot or is fully charged.
