Detailed Operation Instructions for Models
36271
and
48021
After carefully reading and understanding the Safety Instructions contained
in this manual (pages 3 - 6) and having evaluated your battery as described
in Qualifying Your Battery (pages 7 - 10) you are properly prepared to begin
using your charger.
1. Attach output cord of charger to the Ring Terminal Assembly (RTA) (supplied).
Note: An
optional
method of connecting the BatteryMINDer to the RTA
is with the EZC-01 panel mounted assembly (supplied). This connector
is mounted through the side of the battery box under the golf cart seat,
making it convenient to connect the BatteryMINDer without lifting the seat.
To install:
a. Drill a small pilot hole
b. Use a 7/8” or 1” hole saw (available at such stores as Home Depot)
to complete drilling the hole.
c. Insert the EZC-01 into the hole and mark the four locations to drill the
pilot holes for the screws (supplied).
d. Install the screws
e. Connect the EZC-01 to the Ring Terminal Assembly.
Note the BatteryMINDer cord must be removed by pulling on the
connector plug, not the cord. Any damage to the connectors or cord
will not be covered by the warranty.
2. Never use either of these assemblies on any other charger or for any
other purpose such as improvised “jumper cables”, etc.

same place they are regularly installed will normally prove the safest
and most convenient. If you have several applications you may wish to
purchase additional Ring Terminal Assemblies (RTA) available from your
dealer or VDC Electronics, Inc. directly.
4. Note: this assembly contains a 15 Amp automotive type fuse and is
replaceable should for any reason it were to blow. Never replace this
fuse with any type whose rating is higher than 15 Amps, as seriously
harmful results may occur.
5. Identify the positive and negative posts or connections on your battery,
usually clearly designated with the polarity markings of + (positive) and
– (negative). If you have previously installed the RTA referred to in 1.
above, you need only to press the connector plug of the charger’s output
cord into the mating plug of the RTA. Push firmly and do not leave any
