PREPARING TO WORK

Check that the main switch of the machine is set to "0"
3.
Connect the connector to the batteries (1)
4.
Sit on the driver’s seat

Turn the key of the main switch a quarter of a turn clockwise (to position ON). Immediately, on the
instrument panel, the display will turn on indicating the charge level of the batteries.
7.
With switch-on, three consecutive screens are displayed on the monitor. The first screen shows (on
the top line) what type of hour-counter has been set; in this case it is a total hour-counter (to display
a different type - for instance partial - contact the qualified, COMAC-trained personnel). The bottom
line shows the “service” setting (in this case there is no setting).
8.
The second screen displays what battery technology has been set for machine operation; in this
case it is lead batteries (to set another type of battery - for instance gel - contact the qualified,
COMAC-trained personnel).
9.
The third and last screen (known as “work”) displays the battery charge status and the total
functioning time. When the batteries supplied are fully charged, the upper line contains 8 light
indicators that represent a battery. As the batteries gradually run down, the indicators go out and,
with the batteries completely run down, only the battery outline flashes. The bottom line indicates
the hours and minutes of functioning. The flashing “:” symbol indicates that the hour-counter is
counting the machine functioning time.
