Damage to cables and battery male
connectors
CAUTION
There is a risk of short circuit if the ca-
bles are damaged.
Do not crush the battery cables when
closing the battery door.
–
Check the battery cables for damage.
–
When removing and reinstalling the
battery, ensure that the battery cables
are not damaged.
–
Ensure that the battery cables do not
come into contact with the battery
door.
CAUTION
Potential for damage to the battery male connector!
If the battery male connector is disconnected or con-
nected while the truck is switched on or while the
battery charger is under load, an electrical arc or a
transition spark will be produced at the battery male
connector. This can lead to erosion at the contacts
and can considerably shorten the service life of the
contacts.
–
Switch off the truck or the battery charger before
disconnecting or connecting the battery male con-
nector.
–
Do not disconnect the battery male connector
while under load, except in an emergency.
Ventilation gap
The ventilation gaps between the battery door
and the chassis are used for forced-air cooling
of the battery compartment.
–
Do not plug the ventilation gaps.
–
If the battery door is deformed, contact the
authorised service centre.
