The lights indicate the following information:
RED (Continuous): Battery is connected and being charged.
GREEN (Continuous):
Charging is complete.
RED (Flashing):

range. Charging will begin when the battery reaches the correct
charging temperature of 32°F-150°F (0°C-65°C).

Battery Information
4.1 - General Battery Information
POWERX uses Milwaukee 28V 5Ah or 3Ah batteries to power
the trolley. It is recommended to always have a spare battery
available at all times.
A fully charged 5Ah battery provides power for up to 110 lift cycles
with a 200kg load, 66 lift cycles with 350 kg max load, (65 and
40 lift cycles respectively for a 3Ah battery), before the battery
requires recharging. Patient weight and extreme temperatures
will affect the number of lift cycles achieved.
Typical charging time is under 1 hour. Actual charging time varies
based on the frequency of recharge and the age of the battery.
Deeply discharged batteries may require extended charging
time.
•
The batteries in the pack are Lithium Ion
• To check the charge level of the battery, press the red button
on the battery. The red LED lights will illuminate according
to the charge remaining, from 1 to 4 lights. One flashing LED
indicates the battery is near the discharge level
• You do not need to fully discharge the battery before
recharging
• The rate of speed for raising & lowering the trolley is slightly
faster when the batteries have a full charge
• The battery pack must be charged with an approved
Milwaukee battery charger. A Milwaukee 240V AC battery
charger and/or DC 12V in-vehicle battery charger can be
used
• Short circuiting a battery can cause injury and damage
the battery. Do not allow any wire or tool to connect both
positive & negative terminals on a battery. This can damage
the battery
• Modifying the battery pack can cause injury or damage and
will void the warranty. Use only as designed
• Battery capacity can be affected if the battery is stored for
long periods below 0°F (-17°C) or over 150°F (66°C)
4.2 - Charging a Battery
The POWERX battery can be charged using a 230v mains or 12v
DC charger. Whilst the battery is being charged, another fully
charged battery may be used to operate the trolley.
To charge the battery, remove the battery pack from the dock on
the foot end of the trolley by depressing the red release levers at
each side of the battery and slide the battery pack towards you
to remove.
