(1) Specific gravity:
1.260 - 1.280 maintained at 20° C (68°F)
(2) Voltage: When large volume of gas is emitted from
the battery (in about 2-3 hours for fully discharged
battery), reduce charging rate to 0.2A.
Battery is fully charged when a voltage of 7.5V is
maintained.
By this method, battery with specific gravity of electro-
lyte below 1.220 at 20°C (68°F) will be fully
charged approximately 1-2 hours.
6 Headlamp: replacing bulbs and adjusting beam height
1 To remove the headlamp lens/reflector unit, unscrew the
single screw at the bottom of the unit (early models) or the two
screws which pass through the shell, one on each side just
When the charging is urgent, quick charging method
may be used, however the recommended charging
current rate should be under 2.0A.
below the headlamp mounting bolts (CG125-C and E models).
With the securing screw(s) removed, the headlamp unit can be
detached from the shell to expose the bulbholders.
2 On early models lift the holder against spring pressure,
disengage the locating tang from the reflector and carefully
withdraw the holder assembly from the shell. Press the bulb in
