Charging the Battery

Completely charge a new ba

tt

 ery pack using the SKC-approved charger (Cat. No. 

223-241) before operating the pump. It may be necessary to charge the ba

tt

 ery a 

few times before maximum ba

tt

 ery capacity is achieved.

Cautions: 

•  Do not charge or operate pump with or without charger in hazardous 

locations.

•  Use only the SKC-approved charger for this pump. Use of an 

unapproved charger may damage the ba

tt

 ery and pump and VOIDS 

ANY WARRANTY.

•  Do not open, disassemble, short circuit, crush, incinerate, or expose the 

ba

tt

 ery to 

fi

 re or temperatures in excess of 212 F (100 C).

•  Tampering with the ba

tt

 ery pack VOIDS ANY WARRANTY.

•  Ensure proper orientation of charging cable before plugging it into the 

charging jack. Improper orientation/contact will short-circuit the ba

tt

 ery 

and VOIDS ANY WARRANTY.

•  Short-circuiting the ba

tt

 ery pack will render it immediately inoperative.

•  Failure to follow warnings and cautions VOIDS ANY WARRANTY.

The ba

tt

 ery pack may be kept on the SKC-approved charger for an 

inde

fi

 nite time.

1.  Insert the plug from the charging unit into the 

charging port on the ba

tt

 ery adapter (on top of the 

external ba

tt

 ery assembly).

2.  Insert plug from power supply into the jack on the 

charging unit.

3.  Install the appropriate wall plug on the power 

supply and plug power supply into a wall outlet.

The ba

tt

 ery will recharge in approximately 15 

hours. For a complete charge, do not run the pump 
connected to the external ba

tt

 ery assembly during 

charging. After charging is complete, disconnect 
ba

tt

 ery from charger and connect pump to ba

tt

 ery.
