box (W) into a grounded, 120V wall
outlet.
3. Charge the battery for 24 hours.
After charging, first unplug the charger
box (W) from the wall outlet, then dis-
connect the recharging line plugs (U
and V).

proper equipment could cause a
battery explosion. Use only the bat-
tery charger shipped with the unit.
The engine must be shut off and the
