8.2. MAINTENANCE OF THE BATTERIES
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
NOTICE
Electrolytic liquid is highly corrosive – always wear protective clothing and eye guards.
The batteries generate hydrogen gas during charging – naked flame prohibited,
danger of explosion
Always keep the batteries well charged
• Keeping batteries discharged is extremely harmful. Modern chargers do not charge
batteries excessively.
• Make sure the user is aware that the batteries must be plugged in for charging every
night, although they were not totally flat.
• Plug in a rental machine for charging over night immediately after it is returned.
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
NOTICE
If the batteries are flat, using the charger for driving the machine is not recommended. The
load may grow too high. Continue the charging for at least half an hour before starting the
operation.
Do not allow the batteries to freeze
• A fully charged battery stands out for frost, a flat battery does not.
• Make sure the batteries are charged, if they are kept outdoors in the winter.
Make sure the level of electrolyte in the battery is correct
• Top up distilled water only after the charging is finished. Correct
level of the electrolyte is 3 mm below the edge of the mark.
• If the level is too high, the liquid will spume out from the
plugs during charging.
• If the level is too low, the upper edges of the elements will
corrode.
• If the level of the electrolyte is so low, that the tops of the elements are not submerged,
top up water as much as is required to cover the elements. After that, charge the batteries
and recheck the electrolyte level after the charging is finished.
• Do not add into the battery acid, but only distilled water.
Check the batteries regularly
• Keep the batteries clean externally. You can wash the batteries with warm water and a
brush. Make sure the plugs for the cells are closed so that washing water cannot enter
the cells.
• Check the condition and attachment of the cables and the tightness of the connectors
regularly.
• Check that the batteries do not show cracks or leaks.
