You said you attached it to the battery turned it on and the voltage went up A LITTLE, where as you expected A LOT.
The problem is not the charger..
What you are seeing is the charger/battery ratio... Give it time and the voltage will continue to climb. You have a big battery there, takes time to raist the voltage with a fairly slow charge.
now if you tried to pump say 60-100 amps into that battery, THEN you'd see a bit jump in voltage, but at 10 amps, not so much.
