If it is totally dead it will take at least 12 hours.
The settings on your battery charger may vary the charge voltage (e.g. 6V and 12V) or the charge rate (e.g. 2A and 6A). Because you say that your charger has three settings, I would guess that either the charge voltage is fixed at 12V (and you have 3 choices for charge rate) or you have one setting for 6V and two choices for charge rate at 12V. Make sure the voltage is set to the markings on your battery. This is most likely 12V, but it's best to make sure. If you can't match the setting (you have a 12V only charger and your battery is 6V), you must use another charger or you are likely to damage the battery and to risk explosion. The charge rate setting is meant to allow you to charge batteries of different sizes. A lawn tractor battery probably should be set at the lowest charge rate, say 2A. Larger batteries, like the one in your car, can be charged at higher rates. Charging at a low rate prevents the build-up of heat in the battery and reduces the risk of damage.
yes Yes you can, but I would use a charger that has an amp switch, so you can use the lowest amperage there is on the charger...like 2 amps at the most, mine has a 10/2 switch on the charger..I would only use 10 amp for a VERY short time, and if you can keep an eye on it, then switch it to 2 amps...most motorcycle batteries can be done this way..
A wet-cell battery typically consists of lead plates submerged in an electrolyte solution of sulfuric acid and water. The electrolyte gives the battery its "wet" characteristic. The battery casing is usually transparent or translucent to allow for easy inspection of the liquid levels.
It can vary depending on the model, but typically lawnmower batteries are 12 volts. It's important to check the specifications of your specific lawnmower model to ensure you purchase the correct battery.
Before the mower was invented, tractors and man powered plows were what cut grasses. Most lands were vast and when a field needed to be cut, there were slaves or servants to do the cutting. With the exception of farmers that took pride in their lands.
Not at all. A 35 amp charger is far too large to charge a lawn mower battery. Use a 10 amp automatic charger.
Do you mean that you can not charge it with a battery charger or the mower will not charge it while it is running? If you can not charge it with a battery charger and you are sure that the charger works then the battery is bad. These type batteries are only good for a couple years. If the mower is not charging the battery it could be a number of things.
Depends on the output of the charger which you did not list. A dead battery can be recharged with a 10 amp charger in 3 hours.
can a 12v lawn mower sealed battery be charged with 12v battery charger use on cars
Provided the charging system on the mower engine is operational, a small amount of charging voltage will be supplied to the battery during use.
A battery float charger is intended only to keep a fully charged battery from losing its charge. It will NOT work to charge a battery that is discharged or damaged. Check the voltage of the battery to be charged. Do not use charger if the battery voltage is less than 9.6 volts.
No, it is not necessary to remove it. You can charge it right there on the mower.
replace it
With a 10 amp charge about 1 hour if the battery is totally dead. You should really use an automatic battery charger that shuts off when the battery is fully charged to avoid overcharging.
Not sure if the question is what to charge the battery with or how to charge the battery. So, I will address both: A regular battery charger can be used. IF you are going to purchase one, you really don't need a top-of-the-line, expensive charger. A simple 2 to 6 amp slow-trickle charger will do the job. To charge the battery, connect the red charger cable to the positive battery post and the black charger cable to the negative battery post, then turn on the charger until the battery is charged. If necessary, clean the battery posts and cables before charging. The battery charger will have more complete details for charging the battery.
Yes, you can use a 12-volt battery charger on a John Deere lawn mower, provided the mower is equipped with a 12-volt battery. Ensure the charger is compatible with the battery type (lead-acid, AGM, etc.) and follow the manufacturer's instructions for charging. It's important to connect the charger correctly, observing the positive and negative terminals, to avoid any damage. Always disconnect the charger before attempting to start the mower.
yes as long as it is not totally dead.
