ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CHARGING WET BATTERIES
Charge the batteries each time the machine is used or when the Battery Indicator
(D)
is reading less than full.
WARNING!
Do not
fi
ll the batteries before charging.
Charge batteries in a well ventilated area.
Do not smoke while servicing the batteries.
When Servicing Batteries...
*
Remove all jewelry
*
Do not smoke
*
Wear safety glasses, rubber gloves and a rubber apron
*
Work in a well-ventilated area
*
Do not allow tools to touch more than one battery terminal at a time
*

fi
rst when replacing batteries to prevent sparks.
*
ALWAYS connect the negative cable last when installing batteries.
If your machine shipped with an onboard battery charger do the following:
Turn the Key Switch
(A)
OFF. Unwind the electrical cord from the side of the onboard charger and plug it into a properly grounded outlet. Refer to the OEM product manual for more
detailed operating instructions.
If your machine shipped without an onboard battery charger do the following:
Disconnect the batteries from the machine and push the connector from the charger into the Battery Pack Connector
(25)
. Follow the instructions on the battery charger.
SERVICE
NOTE:
Make sure you plug the battery charger into the connector with the handle attached to it.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to
fl
oor surfaces, wipe water and acid from the top of the batteries after charging.
CHECKING THE BATTERY WATER LEVEL
Check the water level of the batteries at least once a week.
After charging the batteries, remove the vent caps and check the water level in each battery cell. Use distilled or demineralized water in a battery
fi
lling dispenser
(available at most auto parts stores) to
fi
ll each cell to the level indicator (or to 10 mm over the top of the separators). DO NOT over-
fi
ll the batteries!
CAUTION!
Acid can spill onto the
fl
oor if the batteries are over
fi
lled.
Tighten the vent caps. Wash the tops of the batteries with a solution of baking soda and water (2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 liter of water).
CHARGING GEL (VRLA) BATTERIES
Charge the batteries each time the machine is used or when the Battery Indicator
(D)
is reading less than full.
WARNING!
Charge batteries in a well ventilated area.
Do not smoke while servicing the batteries.
When Servicing Batteries...
*
Remove all jewelry
*
Do not smoke
*
Wear safety glasses, rubber gloves and a rubber apron
*
Work in a well-ventilated area
*
Do not allow tools to touch more than one battery terminal at a time
*
ALWAYS disconnect the negative (ground) cable
fi
rst when replacing batteries to prevent sparks.
*
ALWAYS connect the negative cable last when installing batteries.
CAUTION!
Your voltage regulated lead acid (VRLA) battery will deliver superior performance and life ONLY IF IT RECHARGED PROPERLY!
Under or overcharging will shorten battery life and limit performance. Be sure to FOLLOW PROPER CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS!
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN THIS BATTERY! If a VRLA battery is opened, it loses its pressure and the plates become oxygen
contaminated. THE WARRANTY WILL BE VOIDED IF THE BATTERY IS OPENED.
If your machine shipped with an onboard battery charger do the following:
Turn the Key Switch
(A)
OFF. Unwind the electrical cord from the side of the onboard charger and plug it into a properly grounded outlet. Refer to the OEM product manual for more
detailed operating instructions.
If your machine shipped without an onboard battery charger do the following:
Disconnect the batteries from the machine and push the connector from the charger into the Battery Pack Connector
(25)
. Follow the instructions on the battery charger.
SERVICE
NOTE:
Make sure you plug the battery charger into the connector with the handle attached to it.
IMPORTANT: Make sure you have an appropriate charger for use on Gel cell batteries. Use only “voltage-regulated” or “voltage-limited” chargers.
Standard constant current or taper current chargers MUST NOT be used. A temperature-sensing charger is recommended, as manual adjustments are
never accurate and will damage any VRLA battery.
