3.1) Using the battery charger
Carefully follow the instructions in the battery charger manual.
3.2) General information on how to use batteries
In order to use the batteries correctly, please follow these rules:
– Use the battery until the automatic residual energy display still has 1-2 LEDs showing:
this means the battery is almost completely discharged and no loss in the life of the
battery has been caused.
– Be particularly careful when charging a new battery the first 2-3 times in order to be
certain of maximising the available energy level.
– Allow the battery to cool down to ambient temperature prior to recharging.
– Rest the battery charger for at least 15 minutes between charges.
4. MAINTENANCE
The tool is robust, completely sealed, and requires very little daily maintenance.
Compliance with the following points should help to maintain the optimum performance
of the tool:
4.1) Thorough cleaning
Dust, sand and dirt are a danger for any hydraulic device.
Every day, after use, the tool must be wiped with a clean cloth taking care to remove any
residual particles, especially around the moveable parts and the insulated flexible hose.
4.2) Replacement of the automatic coupler
To replace the automatic coupler of the hose or head, proceed as follows:
– Remove the old coupler.
– Carefully clean the thread to remove old sealant.
– Apply Teflon tape to the thread.
– Fit the new automatic coupler and tighten to
30 Nm (22 lbf ft)
.
4.3) Insulated flexible hose
Operate the tool with the hose uncoiled.
Do not bend, twist, kink, knot or squash the hose.
Before operation, check the hose
for any sign of damage.
When storing the tool in the canvas bag, coil the hose in large loops.
4.4) Storage
When not in use, the tool should be stored and transported in the canvas bag, to prevent
damage. Canvas bag: type
“009”
, size 390x390x130 mm, weight 0,6 kg.
