How to Charge the Batteries

WARNING: Charging the batteries in an area without ad-
equate ventilation could result in an explosion.
To prevent an explosion, charge the batteries
only in an area with good ventilation.
WARNING: Lead acid batteries generate gases which could
explode. Keep sparks and fl ames away from
batteries. NO SMOKING!
CAUTION: See Charger Owner's Manual. All onboard
battery chargers are programmed for a specifi c
type battery. The charger may need reprogram-
ming to properly charge replacement batteries
different than the originally equipped Clarke
battery.
NOTE: Only replace batteries with the identical Clarke battery pack as
originally equipped. The correct Clarke battery part number can be
found on the Clarke battery label affi xed to the top of each battery.
If the replacement battery is a different Clarke battery, please con-
tact Clarke Technical Service, 1-800-356-7274, for instructions.
If the replacement battery is not a Clarke battery, please contact the
charger manufacturer for instructions.
To charge the batteries, follow this procedure:
1. Make sure the key switch is in the "OFF" position.
2. Raise the seat base support.
3. Connect the battery charger AC cord to a 15 amp (min) 120V properly
grounded wall receptacle.
4. Observe indicator light to ensure the charging process has started
(see fi gure 5, A - Red, B - Yellow, and C - Green ). For color indica-
tions see fi gure 6.

Recharging the Batteries

The Focus Rider Scrubber comes with an on board charger.
1. Plug into any wall socket and charging is automatic.
2. Observe indicator light to ensure the charging process has started
(see fi gure 5, A - Red, B - Yellow, and C - Green ). For color indica-
tions see fi gure 6.
NOTE: Make sure you plug into a circuit that is not loaded by other equip-
ment. Wall breakers may be tripped and no charge will occur.
WARNING: Never charge a GEL battery with an unsuitable
battery charger. Carefully follow the instruc-
tions given by the manufacturer of the batteries
and battery charger.
NOTE: To prevent permanent damage to the batteries, avoid their complete
discharge. Never leave the batteries completely discharged, even if the
machine is not being used. When recharging the batteries, keep the base
support of the seat lifted. After every 20 recharging operations, check the
level of the electrolyte and if necessary top off with distilled water.
