Which charger is right for my Cushman Hauler?
First, please keep in mind that explosive hydrogen gas is created during the charge cycle of the batteries. Ensure good ventilation to remove gas from enclosed spaces while charging. Never charge a vehicle near flammable materials, open flames/sparks, or near gas appliances with a pilot light.
Please consult your Cushman Hauler Owner’s Manual before shopping for or operating a charger and follow all necessary safety precautions.
Some Cushman Hauler’s are equipped with an onboard charging system, some have an offboard charging option. The onboard charging system is located under the driver side load bed and is wired directly to the batteries.
A potentially ideal aftermarket charger for the Cushman Hauler 800 is the DPI Accusense 48volt 15amp Intelligent Charger. This charger is made in the USA and offers reverse battery protection.

How to safely recycle Cushman Hauler Batteries
Batteries contain rare materials that can be reclaimed and sold, so many different organizations will gladly take them from you. There should be no need to ever throw an automotive battery in the garbage.
- You can often sell your old batteries back to automotive part stores when buying new as a “core charge”. Make sure to always take your old batteries with you when buying new.
- Your local municipality will also have options for disposing of your batteries. Check your local government websites for these options and if the information is not available, reach out via email. Chances are you will get pointed in the right direction.
- Your local waste management facility will also be able to provide disposal services.
Safe and responsible battery disposal is the smart thing to do and ensures more materials are being reused more often.
