NOTES:
The figures listed in the Amp-hour table assume that the battery is charging at room
temperature. If warmer than room temperature, use a slightly shorter charging time. If
colder, use a slightly longer charging time.
The use of constant current chargers to charge sealed maintenance free batteries is
not recommended. Any overcharge will cause dry-out and premature battery failure. If
a constant current charger is the only type available, do not exceed the charge times
listed in 12 Amp-Hour Battery Charging Rates and Times and do not continue
charging the battery if it gets hot. When charging, never exceed 15 volts.
4. Connect the red battery charger lead to positive (+) terminal of the battery.
5. Connect the black battery charger lead to negative (-) terminal of the battery.
