5.4.1 Charging batteries
Before starting the vehicle up
for the first time, the batteries
to be used must be properly
charged by implementing the
initial battery charge routine,
refer to Section 2.2.
PowerBoss assumes no
liability for damage to the
battery caused by a fault when
the battery is charged for the
first time.
There must be sufficient
ventilation in the charging area
- risk of explosion!
The seat console (Fig. 27/6)
must be open during the
battery charging process to
prevent the development of
explosive oxyhydrogen!
Only use the original charger
and original adapter! Pay
attention that the insulation is
not initially damaged and not
damaged during the charging
process. The cable must not
rub against anything. Do not
use the charger if the insulation
is damaged.
We recommend charging the battery
when at least one dot of the battery
indicator has gone out after operating
the machine. The indicator (Fig.
27/5)
also indicates the charge status of the
batteries during the charging process.
1. Connect the battery plug (Fig. 27/4)
to the adapter supplied.
2. Connect the free plug on the adapter
to the battery charger.
The battery charger is not
contained in the scope of
delivery of the vehicle.
Pay attention to the
information in the operating
manual supplied with the
charger and the manual from
battery manufacturer.
Do not inhale battery gases.
