2.4 Battery charging
The Multi-Tip batteries should be recharged whenever the voltmeter reads less than 24.0V.
To recharge the batteries, simply plug one end of an IEC C13 power lead (“c e c ”)
into the C14 socket on the machine, and the other end into a 1-phase mains power outlet.
A full charge usually takes around 5 hours. The machine can be used while charging.
The onboard charger automatically adapts to different inputs (85-264VAC 50/60Hz 1-ph),
manages the charging cycle to maximise battery life, and prevents overcharging.
The charger delivers enough power to empty a 100kg bin in about 3 minutes, which
means that a battery-powered Multi-Tip can be left plugged in and used as a mains-
powered machine (see
§1.5 ).
For optimum battery life, the Multi-Tip should be placed on charge overnight and on
weekends, even if the batteries are already fully charged.
The charger is in an enclosed plastic case, and is protected against short-circuit, current
overload, over-voltage, and over-temperature.
