TEST FIRST BATTERY
1. Voltage switch
to 20 volts
2. Load bank switch
to ON
3. Turn knobs
clockwise to increase current draw to 80
to 100 amps Indicate on ammeter. Voltage should not drop below 9V in 15
seconds on a 24v system. Hold it just long enough to read voltmeter
and
remove Ioad
should read 12v to 13v (24v system) before and
after load test
NOW TEST THE OTHER BATTERY
1. Turn all controls to the OFF position. Disconnect and
connect cables to other battery and repeat test
2. Batteries should not differ more than 2 volts
NOTE: If more than two batteries in system, test
each one individually until bad one is found.
Use same LVCT hookups; just move test leads C1 and
C3 to positive post and C2 and C4 to negative
post of next battery
