  • Page 2 Your Solar-One Battery is packaged by professionals using quality materials to DOT specifications. If the condition of your shipment is not received reasonably close to the above photo, contact your Solar-One Dealer or call 941-474-0110. Tech support 941-474-0110 M-F 9am-5pm central time.
  • Page 3 Installation Step 1 Acquire the following safety items: safety glasses or face shield, acid resistant apron, insulated 1/2” wrench, insulated ratchet with 1/2” socket, 1 gal neutralizing agent, ( 1 lb baking soda to 1 gal. water, mix this solution thoroughly) rubber gloves Step 2 Inspect the battery tray (steel case) for evidence of damage, if damage has occurred file a claim with the carrier immediately.
  • Page 4 Installation cont. Warning: Never allow tools or other conductive objects to make contact with two or more battery terminals. Step 6 Neutralize the sides of the cells and the steel tray. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Step 7 Move the steel tray to the desired location. Step 8 Install the cells back into the tray using the diagram on page 12 to ensure the cells are correctly installed.

  • Page 5: General Maintenance

    General Maintenance Warning: Always wear protective clothing and eye/face protection when working around batteries. If you should get acid in your eyes or on your skin, flush with clear water for 15 minutes and seek medical help. Do Not use neutralizing agent to flush your eyes! Adding Water Fill to: 1/4"...
  • Page 6 We recommend the MISCO Hand-Held Refractometer 7084VP. Specific Gravity: The standard fully charged specific gravity for the Solar-One is 1.275-1.285 @ 77° F the 100% discharged gravity is 1.140 @ 77° F. Since the acid content of the electrolyte decreases linearly as the cell is discharged, the decrease in gravity is directly proportionate to the amount in ampere-hrs taken out.
  • Page 7 General Maintenance Voltage There is a definite relationship between the cell voltage and the specific gravity of a cell that is open circuit (no charging or discharging for at least 24 hours). These open circuit voltage readings are useful in determining uniformity.
