• in the event of electrolyte being spilled onto the skin or splashed in the eyes, rinse thoroughly with cold water
for 15 minutes and call a doctor.
If the fully charged batteries do not allow the stacker to be used for a sufficiently long
time, they need to be replaced . Only use original equipment batteries for this operation .
- shut-down the machine and remove the cover,
- disconnect the cable connecting the two batteries together (1) (fig . E1) then
disconnect the two remaining terminals (2) (fig . E1),
- loosen the screws of the fixing brackets (3) (fig . E1) and lift out the batteries by means
of the grips provided for this purpose (4) (fig . E1),
- clean the battery support,
- install the new batteries and attach with the brackets,
- connect the battery cables in the reverse order to that in which they were removed,
- put the cover in place .
During the various stages of this operation, be careful not to damage the electric cables
with the tools used .
