16-30 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Battery
Terminal Voltage: 11.5 ∼ less than 12.8 V
Standard Charge 1.2 A × 5 ∼ 10 h (see following chart)
Quick Charge
5A×1h
CAUTION
If possible, do not quick charge. If quick charge is
done unavoidably, do standard charge later on.
Terminal Voltage: less than 11.5 V
Charging Method:
1.2A×20h
NOTE
○
Increase the charging voltage to a maximum voltage of
25 V if the battery will not accept current initially. Charge
for no more than 5 minutes at the increased voltage then
check if the battery is drawing current. If the battery
will accept current decrease the voltage and charge by
the standard c harging method described on the battery
case. If the battery will not accept current after 5 min-
utes, replace the battery.

•
Determine the battery condition after refresh charge.
○
Determine the condition of the battery left for 30 minutes
after completion of the charge by measuring the terminal
voltage according to the table below.

12.0 ∼ lowerthan12.8V
Charge insufficient → Recharge
lower than 12.0 V Unserviceable → Replace
