it, then you can disregard our
recommendations for qualifying / testing your battery, before using the
BatteryMINDer.
Testing a Filler Cap or Manifold-type Lead Acid Battery
1. Carefully remove all caps from your battery.
2. Check the water-liquid electrolyte level. If the level is low or has ever been
below top of plates, severe lead plate sulfation has taken place. Significant
recharge/reconditioning time is needed to restore these plates to a condition
where the battery can be expected to function normally.
3. Refill each cell with distilled water only to the liquid level indicator found in
each cell. Before proceeding further you must be thoroughly familiar
with the safety and operating instructions.
4. Recharge the battery with the BatteryMINDer to ensure that it is slowly and
completely charged before you determine its condition. Allow battery to
"rest" (see Glossary of Terms in detailed manual) overnight for a minimum
of 12 hours before testing with a temperature compensated hydrometer
and/or digital type voltmeter only.
Testing with a Hot/Cold Calibrated Hydrometer Tester
Read the tester instructions carefully for most accurate readings.
1. When using the tester the first time or after a long period of non-use, fill the
tester with the battery fluid and let it sit for 1/2 hour or longer. This will soak
the balls in order to give you more accurate readings. Failure to do so will
give you false readings indicating a battery that may not be in as good a
condition as you may have thought.
2. After inserting the tester in a cell, gently tap the tester several times against
the inside wall of each cell to dislodge air bubbles that will cause more balls
to float than should. Failure to do so will yield false readings that indicate a
battery that is not fully desulfated or does not qualify for desulfation.
3. If no balls float in any cell, the cell is shorted. This means your battery is
