- 1). Locate the battery and identify the positive terminal, indicated by a "+" symbol, and the negative terminal, represented by a "-" symbol.
- 2). Connect the red lead of the trickle charger to the plus terminal. Connect the black lead to the the minus terminal.
- 3). Plug the charger into a 120-volt outlet and select 2 amp or trickle, depending on the charger model. Some chargers do not have any options and automatically trickle charge.
