Single Point Watering System (Spws) - Club Car XRT 850 Owner's Manual

SINGLE POINT WATERING SYSTEM (SPWS)

CAUTION
• Water the batteries only AFTER charging.
• Use water that meets the quality standards shown on page 43. Maximize battery life by removing ions
and heavy metals from water with the use of a deionizer. See Water Quality on page 43.
WATERING BATTERIES WITH THE SPWS
Checking the Water Flow Rate
1. Connect the water hose with the built-in screen filter (2) to the water faucet (1) (Figure 21). See following
CAUTION.
CAUTION
• Make sure the screen filter is clean.
• Do not use a longer garden hose than provided with the System (20 feet), as a decrease in water
pressure can overfill the batteries and damage the refill system.
2. Before screwing the hose-end assembly (3) onto the opposite end of the water hose, check the screen filter (4)
inside the end of the assembly to make sure it is clean (Figure 21).
3. Connect the purger (5) to the female coupler (8) on the end of the hose-end assembly (Figure 22).

Figure 21 Connecting Hose with Filter to Water Source
4. Completely open the water faucet until the water flows out of the hose-end assembly (3), and note the movement
of the red flow indicator balls (6). See following NOTE.
NOTE: This step also eliminates any trapped air from the water hose.
The water flow rate must be at least 2 gallons per minute (7.6 L per minute) and the water pressure must be
no more than 100 psig (689.5 kPa) when static (no flow) for the SPWS to function properly.
