5.1.3 Check battery charge:
Service Interval: Monthly
Allowing batteries to stand for an extended period of time without recharging
them will result in reduced performance and service life. To preserve optimum
battery performance and life, recharge batteries in storage when the open circuit
voltage drops to 12.4 volts.
Note: To prevent damage due to freezing, battery should be fully charged before
putting away for winter storage.
a) Check the voltage of the battery with a digital voltmeter. Locate the voltage
reading of the battery in the table below and charge the battery for the
recommended time interval to bring the charge up to a full charge of 12.6
volts or greater.
IMPORTANT: When charging the battery, make sure the negative battery
cables are disconnected and the battery charger has an output of 16 volts
and 7 amps or less to avoid damaging the battery (see chart below for
recommended charger settings).
