Connect a digital multimeter (set to amps) between
the negative battery post and the negative (ground)
cable connector. The reading should be less than 0.1
amp. If the reading is 0.1 amp or more, the unit’s electri-
cal system should be tested and repaired.

To minimize possible damage to the battery and allow
the battery to be fully charged, the slow charging meth-
od is presented here. This charging method can be ac-
complished with a constant current battery charger
which is available in most shops.

NOTE: Using specific gravity of the battery cells is the
most accurate method of determining battery condition.
Do not charge a frozen battery because it can ex-
plode and cause injury. Let the battery warm to

open specific gravity or circuit voltage.
Determine the battery charge level from either its
oF (15.5oC) before connecting to a charger.
Charge the battery in a well−ventilated place to
dissipate gases produced from charging. These
gases are explosive; keep open flame and elec-
trical spark away from the battery. Do not smoke.
Nausea may result if the gases are inhaled. Un-
plug the charger from the electrical outlet before
connecting or disconnecting the charger leads
from the battery posts.

Following the manufacturer’s instructions, con-
nect the charger cables to the battery. Make sure a good
connection is made.

Occasionally check the temperature of the battery
or the electrolyte is violently gassing or spewing, the
charging rate must be lowered or temporarily stopped.
6.
Three hours prior to the end of the charging, mea-
sure the specific gravity of a battery cell once per hour.
The battery is fully charged when the cells are gassing
freely at a low charging rate and there is less than a
0.003
change in specific gravity for three consecutive
readings.
