Ensure that there is no unauthorised use.
9. BATTERY
9.1 Function
The batteries are valve regulated. This means, among other things, that no maintenance is
required such as topping up with water, and that the batteries are fitted with a valve that
releases gas (in very small amounts) whenever required. However, the batteries are so
tight that they can be put on their side or upside down without any risk of leakage. Only
use original batteries from Hallins to ensure that there is no leakage.
9.2 Battery
charging
To ensure the longest service life possible for the batteries, they must be charged for one
period at least each 24 hours, e.g. during the night. The charging process starts
immediately after the plug is inserted in the socket. The battery cannot be overcharged as
the charger changes to maintenance charging when the battery is fully charged.
9.3 Storage
As the lifting trolley contains batteries it is important how you store the trolley if the
machine is not to be used for a long time.
The battery's self-discharge is a measure of the capacity that is consumed as a result of
the battery standing idle without charge or the charger connected. Different batteries can
be stored for different lengths of time without the battery needing to be charged. An
important and deciding factor is the temperature of the room the battery is stored in.
Storage should always be in a dry space that has a temperature as close as possible to
+20°C.
9.4 Recycling
batteries
Lead batteries are classified as hazardous waste and therefore must always be sent for
recycling or reuse in order to avoid negative impacts on the environment.
10. CLEANING
As the lifting trolley contains electrical components, it is vital that cleaning is carried out as
recommended.
•
Remove the load from the load bed before cleaning.
WARNING!
Never under any circumstances connect the lifting trolley to the mains when cleaning.
Always remove the lifting trolley cord set from the wall socket before cleaning, then clean
the lifting trolley by wiping the outside with a damp rag.
WARNING!
Never rinse the lifting trolley with water at any time!
