Breakaway Battery Charger Installation Instructions
(for ABCD: Accelerated Battery Charging Device)
Electrical System
IMPORTANT
Check condition of battery prior to installation and prior
to each trip.
IMPORTANT FACTS TO REMEMBER
1. Improper installation of the breakaway battery will destroy the
brake control. The negative terminal must attach to ground and
positive terminal must attach to the breakaway switch.
2. Check your breakaway system periodically to insure that wiring and
connections are secure. A short or an open circuit can result in a
no-brake condition.
3. If excessive discharging of the breakaway battery occurs, check
battery and recharge using a Heavy Duty Two Stage/Maintenance
Charger. If using a commercial (AC to DC) make certain the 12 volt
charge is limited to 1.2 amps or less.
4. The breakaway battery charger is connected to the Clearance Light
Circuit. Therefore the breakaway battery charges only when the
clearance lights are on.
