Batteries
Permissible batteries
Traction batteries are required for the use of this machine (no
starter or device batteries). We recommend the use of pure
traction batteries. Only these batteries guarantee a long ser
-
vice life.
Traction batteries are produced as maintenance-free (VRLA)
batteries (Gel). The machine must be adjusted according to
each construction type and manufacturer.
Each battery has a different service life and performance.
