OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CHARGING THE BATTERY
The machine can be charged by plugging an extension
cord into the receptacle below the platform switch on
the control box and to a standard 115 VAC wall
receptacle.
The Platform Lift has two holes in the main frame as
shown in FIG. 3. The indicator lights show the battery
charger status as follows:
When the RED light is on, it indicates that your battery
is discharged and is recharging at the "CHARGING"
rate of 6 amps. While the RED light is on, the battery
voltage measured (with the charger on) will be 11.5 to
13 Volts.
When both the GREEN and RED lights are on, it is
charging at the "FINISHING" rate. During this second
charge stage, the charger holds the battery voltage at
approximately 14.6 VDC, and then gradually reduces
the amount of current (Amps) it delivers to the battery.
By doing this, the battery is able to absorb the last 10%
of charge as quickly as possible without being
overheated.
When the battery approaches full charge, the charger
switches into its third charging stage, gradually
reducing the current fed to the battery to as low as 0.1
Amps. At the same time, it reduces its output voltage to
a float or ready charging rate of 13.3 VDC, indicated by
the GREEN light. This low float or maintenance voltage
gently tops off your battery, keeping them fully charged
and ready until needed. You can store your battery at
full charge indefinitely without overcharging. The
GREEN light indicates that your battery is fully charged
and ready for use.
