1. Always charge your batteries fully prior to operating.
2. Maintain 30-35 lb. pressure in pneumatic wheels.
3. Plan your trip in advance to avoid inclines if possible.
4. Limit your baggage weight to the minimum.
5. Try to maintain an even speed and avoid stop and go driving.
What type of battery should I use?
We recommend “deep cycle” batteries that are maintenance free and sealed, which eliminates the
possibility of leakage. Both “Sealed Lead Acid” and “Gel Cell” are deep cycle batteries and similar
in performance.
These are the specications used to reorder the “deep cycle” batteries:
Type: Deep Cycle (Sealed Lead Acid or Gel Cell)
Size: U1
Voltage: 12V each
Amperage: 31 amp
Why do my new batteries seem weak?
Deep cycle batteries use a much different chemical technology than those in car batteries, nickel-
cadmium (Ni-Cads) or other common battery types. They are specically designed to provide full
power until deeply discharged, then accept a relatively quick recharge. Fresh batteries are shipped
with a full charge. Extreme temperatures during shipping may inuence their initial performance.
Heat will diminish the charge from the battery, cold will slow the power available and extend the
time needed to recharge (similar to a car battery).
It could take a few days for the temperature to stabilize and adjust to your room temperature. It will
take a few “charging cycles” (a partial drain – then full recharge) to establish the critical chemical
balance that is essential to the battery’s peak performance and long life.
If you take the time to break in your battery properly, it will ensure good performance and longevity
of the batteries. Remember that how long your battery will provide service is often a reection of
the care it receives. This is our recommendation to break in your new batteries:
• Fully recharge any new battery prior to initial use. This will give your battery about 85%
performance.
• Run your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI around the house and the yard.
• Give the batteries another full charge and run the LIBERTY™ 624 MINI again. The batteries will
not perform over 90% of their potential.
• After 4-5 charging cycles, the batteries will stabilize at 100% charge and last for an extended period.
