Hi folks..
I recently acquired a nice YA268 on a cart, with a MT1560 load tester. I have tested it out and it appears to be working great, but I am very curious what the various modes are for the charger. On the Course Rate knob, it has 12LO(FINISH) and 12HI. Next to that, the Fine Rate knob has LO, REG, HYBRID and Maint Free.
What does the HYBRID and MAINT Free do? From what I can tell, it varies the charge rate quite a bit, and based on charging some large D batteries, I can cook the batteries if I run it on HYBRID or Maint Free for very long.
Again, just looking for a Manual, and short of that, a quick description on what each mode is used for.
Thanks again,
Chris
