Hi Ebrahim
Defiantly not you cannot use a 12v supply on a 6v battery in the worse scenario you could blow up the battery by putting to much voltage into it, you will need to find a 6v charger hope this helps
Use a multimeter to measure battery voltage before and after starting. If 6V the battery voltage should rise to around 6.9V after starting, and if 12V the battery voltage should rise to around 13.8V after starting. If less than about 6.5V / 13V, the generator's not charging well enough. If less than about 6V / 12V, or if the battery voltage never rises at all, or frankly falls, after starting, then the generator's not charging at all.
If under warranty have it repaired/replaced. If not under warranty then some basic troubleshooting. Most likely a battery issue howerver;
To test the fencer output you can power the fencer from either a standard 6V lantern battery (6V fencer) or a standard 12V automobile battery (12V fencer). You need to rig wiring observing polarity.
To test battery, remove and check voltage with digital volt meter.
A fully charged 6V SLA battery should read 6.2V minimum and a 12V should read 12.4V minimum. If a 6V battery measures 4 volts or less then battery has likely failed. Likewise if a 12V battery measures 10 volts or less it has likely failed. Before replacing a suspect failed battery, connect the battery to any standard 6V/12V automobile charger and see if it will take a charge. After the charging period;
If battery takes a charge, reinstall back in fencer and see if fencer output is hot. If fencer fails output, repair/replace fencer. Else verify the fencer is charging the battery. While battery is installed in fencer measure battery voltage with a digital volt meter. Typical minimum voltage is 13.5V for 12V and 6.7V for 6V. If fencer fails to meet minimum battery charging voltage, likely the fencer solar charging system has failed, repair/replace.
If battery fails to charge, likely battery is end of life. However fencer could still not work. Test fencer with alternate power source (see previous tests). If fencer ok, replace battery.
There should be a small white ceramic block on the firewall - this component cuts the battery voltage from 12 to 9 volts for the coil and ignition system. It has 4 wires and is called a ballast resistor. You may need a book with the wiring diagram to be able to test it. You should have battery voltage going in and something like 9 volts coming out. You can also run a wire with a fuse from the battery to the positive side of the coil to check the system. Disconnect the factory wire from the coil first.
Product Detail Model No.: HB-1206S The item is used for charging 6V-12V lead-acid batteries Max Charging Current: 6A AC Power Input: 64W Output: 6/12V DC 3. 52A Batteries Capacities: 15AHR-80AHR Unit Packing: Colorful box Dimension: 18cm x 10cm x 20cm G. W. / N. W.: 1. 85KG/1. 75KG Certifications: GS, CE, BS, ROHS, SAA
Main functions: (1) The HB-1206S battery charger has the features of convenient operations, reliable safety and high performance. (2) During charging, if turn up overload, the battery charger will keep itself at normal current and normal voltage with its self-automatic protecting function. (3) If being short circuit, the battery charger will switch off itself, and turn normal after one or two minutes. (4) The output current of the battery charger is very stationary, so it can protect the battery charger very well. It only costs 3 or 4 hours to fully charge the batteries. (5) Indication of charging: the battery charger has 6 pilot lamps. The more pilot lamps shining, the less electric quantity is. The charging process finishes when all the pilot lamps go out. (6) The battery charger can be switched between 6V and 12V, so it can charge for 6V and 12V accumulators. You can select 6V or 12V according to your own needs. (7)The operations are very convenient: Put the red clip to the positive pole of the accumulator which indicated "+", and put the black clip to the negative pole of the accumulator which indicated "-", then plug in power source, the accumulator will be charged.
It doesn't need batteries. It is operated by the voltage in the circuit you're testing. No indication means no voltage (or at least less than 5 volts) is present.
