15.2. CHARGING THE BATTERIES
1. Place the machine in a clean and well-ventilated area, near a battery charger.
2. Lift the upper tank to access the battery compartment.
FOR SAFETY
Before leaving the machine unattended or performing any maintenance operation,
ensure it is on a flat surface, engage the parking brake, turn off the machine and remove
the key.
3. Tilt the upper tank, after ensuring it does not contain any water.
4. Check electrolyte level in every battery element. Before charging the battery, add a
sufficient amount of water to cover the plates. After completing recharge, add a
sufficient amount of water to bring the water level to the gauge level. If the water level
is too high before charging, the normal electrolyte expansion may cause it to leak which
causes loss of acid balancing and machine damage.
5. Replace battery caps.
6. Disconnect the battery connector form the machine. Disconnect the battery charger
form the power outlet.
FOR SAFETY
When charging the batteries, connect the battery charger to the batteries before
connecting it to the power outlet. Never connect the battery charger to the power outlet
first as sparks might be generated.
7. To charge the battery pack, use a DC 24 V battery charger that
automatically switches off as soon as the batteries are completely charged.
