Getting Started
Remove the Wireless SQP (WSQP) from all packaging and place on a flat, stable surface.
5.1.1
Installing the battery
If your WSQP arrived with battery packaged separately, before first use the Wireless SQP battery needs to
be installed in the machine. Please follow the following procedure (screwdriver is required):
1.
Gently place the machine on its back in a way that allows easy access to the underside
2.
Rectangular panel is the battery module – unscrew its four corner screws
3.
Gently slot the battery module out of the machine
4.
The battery module consists of the base and the strap – unscrew the remaining screws in the base
to detach it from the strap.
5.
Place the battery in the base and secure it by screwing the strap back in
6.
Find two disconnected wires (should be attached to the top of the strap) – plug the brown one to
the positive (red) terminal of the battery and the blue one to the negative (black) terminal, as seen
in figure 4 below
7.
Gently slot the module containing the battery back into the machine and secure it with four corner
screws

Before every use

Charging
WSQP is powered by a 12V sealed lead-acid battery. It is normal for such battery to take some time to
settle to ‘rested’ voltage after charging or discharging. Thus, keep in mind that the battery voltage
displayed will be a bit higher (if recently charged) or a bit lower (if recently fired) than the actual rested
value.
Rested voltage for a fully charged battery is 12.8V and 11.8V for fully discharged. Machine should not be
operated with rested voltage below 12.3V – battery discharged beyond this point could fail to support all
functionality.
