SERVICING YOUR GENERATOR
Battery Charging
The battery is rated at 11.2 Ah (ampere-hours). Charging current should equal
10% of the battery's ampere-hour rating. A battery charger should be used that
can be adjusted to deliver 1.1 amps.
1. Connect the battery charger following the manufacturer's instructions.
2. Charge the battery 5–10 hours.
3. Clean the outside of the battery and the battery compartment with a solution
of baking soda and water.
Battery Installation
1. Install the battery into the generator.
2. Connect the positive (+) cable to the battery positive (+) terminal first, and
tighten the bolt securely.
3. Slide the battery boot over the positive (+) cable and terminal.
4. Connect the negative (–) cable to the battery negative (–) terminal, and
tighten the bolt securely.
5. Install the battery strap.
6. Install the battery maintenance cover in the reverse order of removal (see
page 60).
Never operate the generator with the battery maintenance cover open, as
poor engine and generator performance will result.
