For what it is worth here is a manual from Schauer. It includes a charging rate table. http://www.battery-chargers.com/Instruction English.pdf
We had a guy killed here by an exploding battery a few years ago while he was jump starting his mothers car. He'd connected the two vehicles for a short time, then bent over the dead battery and was fussing with the cables when it went off. I swear that I think about that every time I'm hooking up a set of jumpers or a charger.
I once had a big yellow EverStart Maxx from Wal-Mart blow up when I hit the start switch on a MF 231. It had never given me any trouble or indication that it was going bad until it did that, and blew the grill out of the tractor. Luckily the force went forward, and not backwards into the radiator. It was untouched rearward.
I have an old Schauer roll around charger that goes up to 60amps on 12 volt. I have used it on high amps numerous times. Doesn't seem logical to me they would have the high amp settings unless it was ok to use them.
