After Charging
WARNING! Disconnect the supply before making or breaking the connections to the
battery. As the released gas is flammable, avoid naked flames, glowing or electrostatically
charged material and sparks in the vicinity of the battery. Always provide adequate
ventilation. Because of this risk of explosive gas, only connect and disconnect the battery
leads when the mains supply is disconnected.
1. Unplug charger from the mains supply
2. Disconnect the negative charging lead (BLACK) from the negative post of the battery
(marked -) or mass.
3. Disconnect the positive charging lead (RED) from the positive terminal post of the battery
(marked +).
4. Clean and store battery charger.
If the charged battery is maintainable, wait some time until the bubbling stops. Inspect the liquid in each
cell again and top up carefully with de-ionized or distilled water if necessary. Now replace the caps. Any
surplus fluid around the cell tops should be wiped off carefully as it may be acidic. Avoid getting
electrolyte on your skin or clothes. Use eye protection. Wash your hands carefully.
WARNING! Do not open or disassemble the device. Attempting to service the unit yourself
may cause the risk of electrical shock or fire. Please follow the safety instructions when
working on the device.
In a few cases , the charging process will finish very quickly, but the battery is not fully charged or does
not deliver the desired voltage or power. The reason for this case could be that the battery is broken
and needs to be replaced. If the device doesn't work at all, an internal fuse might be blown. This happens
always for a reason. Do not try to replace internal fuses yourself. The device has to be checked by the
manufacturer or by an authorized service.
