it might be necessary to discharge the battery and
recharge it a few times. The charge and discharge
cycle might help the current acceptance of the battery
and facilitate its recovery to a usable condition.
23. Inactivity can be harmful to deep cycle batteries. If
they sit for several months, a “boost” charge should
be given – more frequently in warm climate (about
once a month) than in cold (every 2-3 months).
24. Never store a battery in a discharged state. The
sulfate that forms during discharge can make the
battery impossible to recharge fully.
Battery Charger
The aerial platform is equipped with an onboard auto -
matic battery charger. This charger has an electronic
circuit that will completely recharge the batteries and
automatically turn off after the charge cycle is com -
pleted.
The charging cycle may last 1 1/2 to 18 hours depending
on the state of charge of the batteries. If the charging
cycle should exceed 18 hours without the batteries be -
ing fully recharged, the charger should be shut off and
the batteries should be checked.
General Charging Cautions
1. Do not recharge batteries unless Electrolyte level
has been checked. Operate charger in accordance
with the battery charging instructions outline in this
manual. Place the battery disconnect switch in the
off position before charging batteries.
2. Do not smoke or introduce a flame or spark in the
charging area.
Warning
Batteries give off hydrogen and oxygen that can
combine explosively. Death or serious injury can
result from a chemical explosion. Charge the batter-
ies only in a well ventilated area away from sparks
or flame.
3. Use protective face and eye equipment when check -
ing the condition of charging batteries.
