---a.) Connect +26.5VDC to pin 3 & 10
---b.) Connect -0V to pin 5
---c.) Connect Meter (DCV) across R9
---d.) Adjust R10 for -0V on the meter

2.) Float Voltage is adjusted on the 634-659 Charger. The charger should be in the standby application
(Float Voltage), Adjust R1 between 27 and 27.6 volts.

NOTES:
1.) 2001-3001 was not made for the Sealed Lead Acid Batteries.
2.) No parts a available for the 2001-3001
3.) This power supply should be replaced with the 2001-3002 (634-174) and it is designed for Sealed
Lead Acid Batteries.
