MEV™   Daytona™   OWNERS   MANUAL

Batteries   contain   high   current.   Do   not   overfill   or   allow   water   to   stand   on   top   of   the   batteries.   

Doing   so   could   result   in   personal   injury   and   or   property   damage.   

   

   

   

   

   

   

 

   

   

   

   

 

Use   distilled   water,   do   not   use   tap   water   

Add   water   only   after   charging   unless   the   electrolyte   level   is   below   the   top   of   the   battery   plates.   

Add   water   to   cover   plates   then   check   electrolyte   levels   again   once   charged.   

Note:   a   battery   watering   gun   or   bottle   is   available   at   many   auto   parts   dealers.   

Inspect   the   wires   and   terminal   connections   for   corrosion,   fraying,   or   damage.   Replace   wires   if   

necessary.   Ensure   battery   wire   terminal   connector   nuts   are   tightened   to   95-­‐105   inch   pounds   –   

always   use   a   torque   wrench   and   do   not   over   tighten.   

   

   

   

   

   

   

 

If   the   battery   wires   or   terminals   are   damaged   or   corroded,   they   should   be   replaced   or   

cleaned.   Failure   to   do   so   may   cause   them   to   overheat   during   operation.   

 

Torque   battery   hold   down   straps   to   40   in-­‐lbs   to   ensure   the   batteries   are   held   in   place   

securely.   

 

After   each   use,   the   cart   should   be   placed   on   charge.   The   batteries   should   never   be   left   

discharged   longer   than   absolutely   necessary.   

   

Battery   Charging   

   

   

   

 

Batteries   emit   hydrogen   which   is   an   explosive   gas.   While   charging,   keep   cart   in   well   

ventilated   areas.   

 

Do   not   cover   the   cart   while   charging   as   an   accumulation   of   hydrogen   gas   could   result   in   an   

explosion.
