WARNING!
Unsuitable batteries that have not been approved by Jungheinrich for the
truck can be hazardous
The design, weight and dimensions of the battery have a considerable effect on the
operational safety of the truck, in particular its stability and capacity. The use of
unsuitable batteries that have not been approved by Jungheinrich for the truck can
lead to a deterioration of the braking system during energy recovery operations and
also cause considerable damage to the electrical control system. The use of
batteries that have not been approved by Jungheinrich can therefore affect the
health and safety of personnel.
u Only Jungheinrich-approved batteries may be used on the truck.
u Battery equipment may only be replaced with the agreement of Jungheinrich.
u
When replacing/installing the battery make sure the battery is securely located in
the battery compartment of the truck.
u
Do not use batteries that have not been approved by the manufacturer.
Park the truck securely before carrying out any work on the batteries (see page 191).
