Before installing the cells, clean all parts. Remove the short circuit ABS protectors from the terminal posts and clean them with a soft clean cloth.
- Page 5 Check tightness and cleanliness When all cells have been connected up check the terminal voltage, this should equal to the sum of all the individual cell voltages. If the total voltage is different to the calculated figure, some cells may have been installed correctly. Connect the positive terminal of the battery to the positive terminal of the charger and the battery negative to the charger negative.
- Page 6 (b) Equalizing / Boost charge 2.35 – 2.4V Chargers usually have two adjustable charging voltages: one for the “floating” charge and one for the “equalizing” charge (also known as “boost”, “high rate” or “recharge”). The equalizing charge is generally required: When the total voltage spread between cells is greater than 0.04V under float charging conditions.
