Charger Maintenance
The charger does not require regular maintenance. While installing the charger, however,
make sure to maintain proper polarity when connecting power leads and battery
connections. To ensure optimal operation of the charger, observe the following:
Overload and reverse-polarity protection Fuses F1, F2 and F3 (15 A, PN
12057
) provide
overload and reverse-polarity protection. Replace a blown fuse with a fuse with the same
rating and type.
Periodic Inspection Periodically inspect the batteries for corrosion and make sure that
corrosive effects to the batteries do not affect the charger or cabinet.
Troubleshooting Most problems with a charger are due to faulty batteries or loose
connections. If you encounter problems, inspect the charger, the battery, and all
connections for loose wiring or short circuits.
Replacing Batteries Only replace batteries with the same charge rate and capacity as
other batteries in the set. For example, if replacing one of four 60 AH batteries, make sure
the replacement battery has the same charge rate and capacity as the other three batteries.
