To charge gel-cell batteries in the Solo XT550
with the charger:
1. Connect the charger plug to the port on the
right side of the accelerator control box
located at the top of the steering tiller. Then
connect the charger plug to a properly
grounded 115 VAC outlet. (See Figure 15)
NOTE:
Your Solo XT550 is equipped with a safety mechanism called a “Battery Charger
Interlock.”
This prevents the cart from being driven with the charger plugged in.
2. Charging time may vary from under ½ hour to up to 18 hours for severely discharged
batteries. Normally an overnight charge will suffice.
3. The charger has an automatic shut off. If the charge of the batteries is unknown check it
by unplugging the charger and turning the key on. This will give a reading on the
BATTERY LEVEL METER located on the ACCELERATOR CONTROL PANEL. The
batteries are fully charged when the needle is all the way to the right in the green area of
the meter. Do not check the meter with the charger plugged in as it will give a false
reading. If after charging, the batteries will not take a charge as shown by the BATTERY
LEVEL METER or one or both batteries get warm during charging it could mean that you
need a new battery. Call your dealer.
4. When the batteries are fully charged disconnect the charger from the 115 VAC outlet.
WARNING
The charger for your Solo XT550 must be
connected to a properly grounded 115 VAC
outlet. If it is absolutely necessary to use an
extension cord, use a 3-prong (grounded)
14 gauge or heavier extension cord.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS WARNING MAY
RESULT IN FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
