Operating range of DC power supply
(exclusively for charging 12-V battery)
This power source is designed to charge batteries up to 40Ah that are
half-discharged. Do not charge batteries of a higher capacity than 40Ah.
12V battery
The time required for recharging a battery varies depending on the discharge
level of the battery. When the specific gravity of the battery reaches 1.26 to 1.28,
charging is complete. When charging, check the bat-tery's specific gravity once
an hour.
The average time for charging a half-discharged 40Ah battery is
approximately 5 hours. Be sure to check the battery fluid level before
charging.
NOTICE:
Do not connect any load to the battery or use the engine starter motor while
charging. This causes high current to flow through the generatorwhich will
burn out the coil.
Do not connect a VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) battery. To charge a
VRLA battery, a special (constant-voltage) battery charger is required.
WARNING
Electrolyte is poisonous and dangerous since it contains sulfuric acid,
which causes severe burns. Avoid any contact with skin, eyes or clothing

contact, administer the following FIRST AID.
EXTERNAL: Flush with plenty of water.
INTERNAL: Drink large quantities of water or milk and immediately call
EYES: Flush with water for 15 minutes and seek prompt medical attention.
Batteries produce explosive hydrogen gas. Therefore, keep sparks,
cigarettes, etc., away from the battery and provide suf ficient ventilation
when charging it in an enclosed space.
KEEP THIS AND ALL BATTERIES OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
