6. Keep tops of batteries clean and dry to prevent
excessive self-discharge. Keep battery terminals
reasonably tight.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
For safe and efficient troubleshooting, read this
guide completely before beginning any tests.
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE CHARGER
IF IT IS DAMAGED OR APPEARS TO BE
MALFUNCTIONING. PERSONAL INJURY OR
DAMAGE TO THE CHARGER OR BATTERIES MAY
RESULT. DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE CHARGER.
TAKE IT TO A QUALIFIED SERVICE AGENT WHEN
SERVICE OR REPAIR IS REQUIRED. INCORRECT
REASSEMBLY MAY RESULT IN A RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE.
To determine if a charger malfunction exists, eliminate
the problems not associated with the charger in the
sections below. If the problem can not be resolved,
contact a qualified service center.
1. Charger does not turn on
a. Battery is not connected to charger.
b. Charger is not plugged into a live AC outlet.
c. DC fuses blown.
WARNING: IF THE AC OR DC PLUG OR
RECEPTACLE IS BROKEN, TWISTED, BENT OR
LOOSE AND DOES NOT MAKE GOOD
ELECTRICAL CONTACT, HAVE IT REPLACED BY
QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL IMMEDIATELY.
DO NOT USE THIS CHARGER IN THIS CONDITION
AS FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT.
2. Charger remains at high rate
a. The charger is connected to a battery pack
with a system voltage lower than specified.
b. Battery amp-hour capacity is greater than
specified for charger.
c. One or more of the batteries in the battery
pack has reversed polarity.
3. Charger turns off early
a. The DC cord was accidentally disconnected
from the battery during charge.
b. The battery has been allowed to sulfate.
Charge the battery at least once every three
days when the equipment is lightly utilized.
Once sulfation is allowed to take place it may
be partially reduced by returning, temporarily,
to daily charging.
c. AC circuit is not live (power outage or circuit
breaker blown).
4. Charger does not turn off
a. The charger is connected to a battery with an
amp-hour capacity greater than specified.
b. The charger is connected to a battery pack
with a system voltage higher or lower than
specified.
c. New batteries (5 cycles or less), cold
batteries or overdischarged batteries may
require an extended charge time to achieve
full charge.
5. Charger fuse blows (or circuit breaker)
a. AC fuse blows when wrong AC power supply
is used.
6. Building AC line circuit breaker or fuse blows
a. A "weak" fuse or circuit breaker is protecting
the circuit. Connect the charger to another
outlet on a different circuit. If the charger
operates properly, have a qualified electrician
inspect and test the original circuit.
b. The circuit is overloaded. Connect the
charger to another outlet on a different circuit.
7. Equipment range decreasing
a. The electrolyte level in conventional liquid
electrolyte lead-acid batteries was allowed to
drop below the top of the battery plates. Add
distilled water to just cover the tops of the
plates immediately upon discovery and fill to
the proper level with distilled water at the
completion of the very next charge cycle.
Battery capacity lost in this manner is
permanent and is not recovered with
additional charge cycles.
b. Use of the equipment before the batteries
have been fully charged and the charger turns
off. This shortens battery life and hastens the
onset of reduced daily range. Battery
capacity lost in this manner is permanent and
is not recovered with additional charge
cycles.
c. This is the normal wearout process for all
types of deep-cycle motive power batteries.
