SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
C-14 CHECK THE LEVEL OF THE BATTERY
ELECTROLYTE
-
Check the electrolyte level every 250 working hours;
if necessary, add distilled water.
-
Ensure the fluid is 5÷6 mm above the plates and the
cell levels are correct.
-
Protect the terminals smearing them with pure vase-
line.
-
Remove the battery and store it in a dry place, when
the machine is not used for a long time.
Battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid. It can
burn you if it touches your skin and eyes. Always
wear goggles and protective gloves, and handle the
battery with caution to prevent spillage. Keep metal
objects (watch straps, rings, necklaces) clear of the
battery leads, since they can short the terminals and
burn you.
-
Before disconnecting the battery, set all switches
within the cab to OFF.
-
To disconnect the battery, disconnect the nega-
tive (-) lead from the frame earth first.
-
To connect the battery, connect the positive (+)
lead first.
-
Recharge the battery far from the machine, in a
well-ventilated place.
-
Keep out of items which can produce sparks, of
naked flames or lit cigarettes.
-
Do not rest metal objects onto the battery. This
can result in a dangerous short especially during
a recharge.
-
Because the electrolyte is highly corrosive, it
must never come in contact with the frame of
the handler or electric/electronic parts. If the
electrolyte comes in contact with these parts,
contact the nearest authorised assistance
centre.
Risk of explosion or shorts. During the recharge, an
explosive mixture with release of hydrogen gas
forms.
Do not add sulphuric acid; add only distilled water.
