3.11.7  Battery 

 

   

WARNING 

Explosion.  
Can cause severe injury or death.  
Relays in the battery charger cause arcs or sparks.  

Locate the battery in a well

‐

ventilated area. Isolate the battery charger from explosive 

fumes. 

 

 
 

Perform battery storage after all other storage procedures. 

1.  Confirm that the generator set is stopped. 

2.  Disconnect the battery(ies), negative (-) lead first. 

3.  Clean the battery. Refer to the battery cleaning procedure. 

4.  Place the battery in a cool, dry location. 

5.  Connect the battery to a float/equalize battery charger or charge it monthly with a trickle battery charger. Refer to the 

battery charger manufacturer’s recommendations. 

Maintain a full charge to extend battery life. 

Note: 

If the battery is an absorbed glass mat (AGM) type, ensure that the battery charger is compatible with AGM type batteries before 
charging
