MACHINES WITHOUT ONBOARD CHARGER 
 
Use a 24 volt, 12 amp maximum output, DC charger 
which will automatically shut off when the batteries 
are fully charged to charge the two battery pack. 
 
1.  Stop the machine in a clean, well ventilated area 

next to the charger.  

  
2.  Turn the machine off. 
 
FOR SAFETY:  Before leaving or servicing 
machine; stop on level surface, turn off machine. 
 
3.  Drain recovery tank and raise the recovery tank.  
 
 
Batteries emit hydrogen gas.  Explosion or fire 
can result.  Keep sparks and open flame away.  
Keep covers open when charging. 
 
4.  Check the electrolyte level in each battery cell.  

Before charging, add just enough distilled water 
to cover the plates.  After charging is complete, 
add just enough distilled water to bring up the 
level to the indicator ring.  If the water level is 
too high before charging, normal expansion rate 
of the electrolyte may cause an overflow. 
Resulting in a loss of battery acid balance and 
damage the machine. 

 
5.  Replace the battery caps, and leave them in 

place while charging. 

 
6.  Unplug the battery connector from the machine. 
 
FOR SAFETY:  When charging, connect the 
charger to the batteries before connecting the 
charger to the AC wall outlet.  Never connect the 
charger to the AC wall outlet first.  Hazardous 
sparks may result. 
 
7.  Plug the charger connector into the battery 

connector.  Connect the charger AC plug to a 
wall outlet.  The charger gauge should indicate 
that the batteries are charging.  

 
8.  When the batteries are fully charged, disconnect 

the charger from the AC wall outlet, then 
disconnect the charger from the batteries. 

 
9.  Connect the batteries to the machine connector. 
 
10.  Check the electrolyte level.  It should be up to 

the indicator ring.  If necessary, add distilled 
water. 

 
11.  Lower the recovery tank. 
 

 
CHANGING BATTERIES 
 
Stop the machine in a clean area next to the 
charger.  Turn off machine. 
 
FOR SAFETY:  Before leaving or servicing the 
machine; stop on level surface, turn off machine. 
 
1.  Drain recovery tank and raise the recovery tank. 
 
2.  Disconnect battery pack from machine. 
 
3.  Disconnect squeegee lift cable and vacuum 

hose. 

 
4.  Prepare a suitable site to place the batteries. 
 
5.  Pull battery tray with batteries out of rear of 

machine. 

 
 
 
Batteries are a potential environmental hazard.
