7 Use & Maintenance
Battery
1) Regularly check to see if the battery is damaged
2) Keep the battery surface clean, and check underneath the battery cover to
make sure that no dirt or water has attached to it.
3) Check the battery connections – underneath the small plastic covers – for
any signs of corrosion or bad connection.
4) Check that the wires from the battery cover are firmly fixed to the terminal
posts.
5) After use always place the battery on charge – in warm dry conditions.
6) If the cart will be used again soon then you can leave the battery on charge
until that time. Always allow sufficient charging time to completely charge the
battery – overnight or 6 to 8-hours should be sufficient.
7) If the battery is to be stored – for instance over winter – and not used it can
be disconnected. If disconnected for storage always recharge the battery
completely at intervals – at least once every 30-45 days. Allowing the charge
of the battery to drop to a completely exhausted state can shorten the life of
the battery.
8) Do NOT charge the battery with a different charger that that supplied with
the cart.
9) If stored place the battery on a wooden shelf – not on a concrete floor. Keep
away from fire – flames – heaters – and do not allow it to be in a temperature
of over 45 deg C (113 deg F)
