5. CHARGING/RECHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
Lead-acid batteries require maintenance to maintain a full charge and to
ensure good battery life. All lead-acid batteries suffer from self-discharge
over time and more rapidly when they are at higher temperatures.
Therefore, these types of batteries need periodic charging to replace energy
lost through self-discharge. When the Battery Pack is not in use Vector
recommends that the battery is recharged at least every 60 days.
All batteries must be recharged as soon as possible after each use. If a battery is
allowed to remain in a discharged state, battery life will be reduced.
NOTE:
Recharging battery after each use will prolong battery life; frequent
heavy discharges between recharges will reduce battery life.
Overcharging will reduce battery life. Never charge for more than 24 hours.
The time required to fully recharge the battery pack depends on the charge
status of the battery after it’s use. If the battery is discharged from recent use
recharge the battery for 8 hours.
5.1 AC RECHARGE OF BATTERY PACK
AC Recharge requires the use of the supplied AC/DC Adapter. The AC
adapter must be powered from 110 volt AC, 60 Hz North American
standard AC receptacles. The battery pack must be removed from the
compressor body to gain access to the recharge port.
