Warfighters, when it’s time to roll out, the last thing you want to hear when you try to start your vehicle is crickets. Hawker® offers lots of no-cost—yes free—valuable resources that can help you get the full life out of your Hawker® 6TAGM and military pulse crank (MILPC) batteries.

If you don’t know about the free resources, it’s time to jump-start your battery knowledge.

Schedule free Battery Maintenance and Recovery Training (BMRT) with a field support representative (FSR). FSRs can conduct the training at your motor pool. So, call them to schedule a time and get it on the training calendar.

Visit Hawker® online for the latest info about batteries, FAQs, tips, safety data sheets (SDS), and a quarterly newsletter. There’s also a video vault with quite a few training videos. Here’s the link:
 
If you need an FSR, just call the hotline at (877) 485-1472 (it’s posted on the battery) or you can fill out a contact form on their website:
