NOTE:
Set the charging voltage at 16–17 V.If the setting
is lower, charging will be insufficient. If too high,
the battery will be over-charged.
c. Make sure that the current is higher than the
standard charging current written on the bat-
tery.
NOTE:
If the current is lower than the standard charging
current written on the battery, set the charging
voltage adjust dial at 20–24 V and monitor the
amperage for 3–5 minutes to check the battery.
Reach the standard charging current
Battery is good.
Does not reach the standard charging
current
Replace the battery.
d. Adjust the voltage so that the current is at the
standard charging level.
e. Set the time according to the charging time
suitable for the open-circuit voltage.
Refer to "Battery condition checking steps".
f. If charging requires more than 5 hours, it is
advisable to check the charging current after
a lapse of 5 hours. If there is any change in
the amperage, readjust the voltage to obtain
the standard charging current.
g. Measure the battery open-circuit voltage af-
ter leaving the battery unused for more than
30 minutes.
12.8 V or more --- Charging is complete.
12.7 V or less --- Recharging is required.
Under 12.0 V --- Replace the battery.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Charging method using a constant voltage
charger
a. Measure the open-circuit voltage prior to
charging.
NOTE:
Voltage should be measured 30 minutes after
the machine is stopped.
b. Connect a charger and AMP meter to the bat-
tery and start charging.
c. Make sure that the current is higher than the
standard charging current written on the bat-
tery.
ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
NOTE:
If the current is lower than the standard charging
current written on the battery, This type of bat-
tery charger cannot charge the MF battery. A
variable voltage charger is recommended.
d. Charge the battery until the battery's charg-
ing voltage is 15 V.
NOTE:
Set the charging time at 20 hours (maximum).
e. Measure the battery open-circuit voltage af-
ter leaving the battery unused for more than
30 minutes.
12.8 V or more --- Charging is complete.
12.7 V or less --- Recharging is required.
Under 12.0 V --- Replace the battery.
