To ensure long life to the battery it is essential to
keep it carefully maintained.
The machine battery must always be charged:
– before using the machine for the first time
after purchase;
– before leaving the machine disused for a long
period;
– before starting up the machine after a pro-
longed period of inactivity.
Carefully read and observe the battery recharg-
ing instructions in the booklet provided with the
battery. Failure in following the procedure or in
charging the battery could permanently damage
the battery elements.
A flat battery must be recharged as soon as
possible.
IMPORTANT Recharging must be done us-
ing a battery charger at constant voltage. Other
recharging systems can irreversibly damage the
battery.
The machine comes with a connector (1) for re -
charging; this is connected to the corresponding
connector for the special maintenance battery-
charger supplied (if included) or available on
request (see 8.2).
IMPORTANT This connector must only be
used for connection to the maintenance battery-
charger indicated by the Manufacturer. For its
use:
– follow the instructions given in the relative in-
structions manual;
– follow the instructions in the battery manual.
