6.8 BATTERY CHARGER

If your HG series is equipped with an electric start it may also feature a battery
charging port. When storing your generator for an extended period of time the battery
will self-discharge, which could cause permanent damage or even complete failure of
the battery.
To prolong the battery life, it should be kept above 12.4 Volts (75%) charged while in
storage. A fully charged battery will read 12.6-12.7 Volts. To top up, plug the charger
into a 120V wall outlet and the charging port on your HG series for no longer than 10
hours at a time. This will slowly recharge the battery and prolong its life.

1.
Plug the charging cord into a 120V wall outlet.
2.
Plug the other end into the charging port of the generator.
NOTE
Do not charge for more than 10 hours at a time.
Check the voltage with a digital voltmeter and top up the battery every
two months while in storage. 12V batteries typically lose 5-15% per
month when not in use.
Note on Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR)
Your generator is equipped with an Automatic Voltage Regulator which ensures a
constant voltage and present a waveform similar to what you get from the city power
grid. They are an improvement over basic generators but not as effective at safely
running sensitive electronics as our inverter generators, which can produce almost
perfect sine waveforms.

because there is a risk damage will occur to electrical components.
