Vibrations from normal use can cause some bolt and screw fittings to loosen over time. Check
all fasteners for tightness before each use, especially if used on rough surfaces that cause
vibration.
4.5 BATTERY PACK CHARGING AND REPLACEMENT
4.5.1 Battery Pack Charging Overview
The lithium battery is fully contained and requires zero maintenance during its operational life.
Charging of the GolfBoard battery should be done ONLY with the original charger provided to
you, or a factory direct replacement. The following notes and procedures will help ensure your
battery last for many years to come.
4.5.2 Charging Procedure
The GolfBoard battery should be charged after each use. The GolfBoard AC Adapter must be
kept in a cool, dry, and dust/debris free environment during storage and usage. The AC Adapter
has one wire that plugs into any standard 120 or 240 volt power outlet, with the other end
plugging into the GolfBoard charge port. Be sure the AC Adapter is disconnected from AC
power (at wall or at Adapter) before plugging the Adapter cord into the GolfBoard charge port.
Once connected to the charge port, AC power can be connected to the Adapter. When the
battery is below “full charge” state the AC adapter will automatically charge the pack when
plugged in. When the charge is complete, the charging will automatically stop and go into
“sleep” mode. AC adapter will not over-charge the GolfBoard battery.
NOTICE
Always unplug the GolfBoard charger once the charge has been completed.
Extreme temperatures will affect battery life, especially during charging. Avoid
charging in direct sunlight or in very hot or cold temperatures. This will reduce the
life of the battery considerably. We recommend charging the battery at room
temperature (approximately 20 °C / 68 °F).
A lithium Ion battery does not have a memory effect, which means that the battery’s
maximum energy capacity is not affected if it is repeatedly recharged after only
being partially discharged. The battery does not need to be completely discharged
before recharging. We recommend charging the battery after every use.
When the battery is depleted to the level where there is risk it could fall into deep
discharge, the battery will automatically shut down power until the being recharged.
WARNING
Do not use charger that has obvious signs of damage to the cable, housing, or the
connector.
