15 10 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM NOTE The specific gravity of the electrolyte varies with changes in temperature so the specific gravity reading must be corrected for the temperature of the electro lyte oCeisius Add 0 007 points to reading for each 1O C above 20 C or subtract 0 007 points for each 10 C below 20 C Fahrenheit Add 0 004 points to reading for each 1O F above 68 F or subtract 0 004 points for each 1O F below 68 F If the specific gravity of any of the cells is more than 0 050 away from any other reading the battery will probably not accept a charge Il is generally best to replace a battery in this condition If the specific gravity of all the cells is 1 280 or move the battery is fully charged Battery Initial Chargins CAUTION Do not use a high rate battery charger as is typically employed at automotive service stations unless the charger rate can be reduced to the level required Charging the battery at a rate higher than specified may ruin the battery Charging at a high rate causes excess heat which can warp the plates and cause internal shorting Higher than normal charging rates also cause the plates to shed active material Deposits will accu mulate and can cause internal shorting If the temperature of the electrolyte rises above 45 C 115 F during charging reduce the charging rate to lower the temperature and increase charging time pro portionately Turn the charger off then disconnect it from the battery Check battery voltage battery voltage should be 12 13 V Check the specific gravity of each cell with a hydrom eter see Battery Condition If the voltmeter or hydrometer readings are below those specified additional charging is necessary before the battery can be installed Before being placed in service a new battery must be given an initial charging Cut off the sealed end of the battery vent hose and remove the filler caps Fill each cell to the upper level line on the battery case with fresh electrolyte at a temperature of 30 C 86 F or less Let the battery stand for about 30 minutes before charging NOTE Qlf the electrolyte level drops add electrolyte to the upper level Une before charging Leaving the caps off the cells connect the battery to a charger set the charging rate at 1 10 the battery capacity and charge it for 10 hours For example if the battery is rated at 12 Ah the charging rate would be 1 2 A CAUTION O f the battery is not given a full initial charging it will discharge in a few weeks After that it can not be charged by supplement charging WARNING Keep the battery away from sparks and open flames during charging since the battery gives off an explosive gas mixture of hydrogen and oxygen When using a battery charger connect the battery to the charger before turning on the charger This procedure prevents sparks at the battery terminals which could ignite any battery gases Battery Ordinary Charging Remove the battery from the motorcycle CAUTI0N Always remove the battery from the motorcycle for charging If the battery is charged while still installed battery electrolyte may spill and corrode the frame or other parts of the motorcycle Clean off the battery using a baking soda and water solution oMix one heaping tablespoon of baking soda in one cup of water OBe careful not to get any of the cleaning solution in the battery oThe terminals must be especially clean If any of the cells are low fill them to the LOWER level line with distilled water only The electrolyte will expand during charging and the level will rise Connect a charger to the battery BEFORE plugging it in or turning it on WARNING j Keep the battery away from sparks and open flames during charging since the battery gives off an explosive gas mixture of hydrogen and oxygen When using a battery charger connect the battery to the charger before turning on the charger This procedure prevents sparks at the battery terminals which could ignite any battery gases Set the charge rate and time according to the battery condition previously determined see Battery Con dition using the table
