Default battery charger question

I just purchaed a battery tender plus:

Amazon.com: Battery Tender 021-0128 Battery Tender Plus 12V Battery Charger:…


My plug to my battery on my 08 400 HO has a 5Amp fuse on it. All the plugs/connectors that came with the tender have 7.5Amp fuses on it. should i swap out my 5 for a 7?

it is a 12V 1.25A charger

Keep the lower amp rating that came with the Quad(like your said).
The 5 amp on the Factory wiring is there for a reason...........Caper........
