proper charger.
Unwind the cable from the cable reel pos.12 located on board the machine and connect the plug pos.13 into a standard
electrical power socket. After fitting in the socket, the battery-charger display screen will light up and, after completion of a
start sequence, a series of parameters will be displayed including the type of battery and the set charge curve (pos.10), the
size of the battery charger (pos.9), the recharge voltage (pos.11), the recharge amperage pos.8, charged amps (pos.1),
recharge time (pos.7).
The word CHARGE will appear (pos.6) combined with the flashing of the green LED (pos. 2) to indicate that the charge
phase is being correctly performed. If the word NO BAT appears in pos.6, this means the battery connector is disconnected.
