955L battery charge issue.... trickle charger? Go Plugs?

We recently learned that the 955L batteries are in series and that might explain why we were having issues with it staying charged as we were probably just charging one battery.
Our trackloader is used on our weekend property so it sits all week and sometimes several weeks without being used. I am wondering if connecting a solar trickle charger to each battery would be helpful. But I also wonder if it would be harmful. Another issue that I also wonder about is that the manual says not to crank it until the battery is a certain percentage charged? I don't know how a trickle charger would effect that. Heck I am not ever sure why that is an issue,

Another issue could have been that the water in the cells were low.

We don't have electricity where we store the loader so we have to charge it with a generator.

1. How long should a charge last?

2. Can anyone recommend a way to keep it charged?

3. Does a 955L have glopugs?

Thanks,
Granny DP
