While installing or performing maintenance on the batteries, the operator must be provided
with the necessary personal protection devices (gloves, goggles, overalls, etc) to limit the
risk of accident. Keep away from open flames, avoid short circuiting the battery poles, avoid
sparks and do not smoke.
Danger
1. Remove the caps and fill all elements with specific sulphuric acid solution until the plates are entirely
covered (this requires at least a couple of passes for each element);
2. Leave for 4-5 hours to allow the air bubbles to come to the surface and the plates to absorb the electrolyte;
3. Make sure the level of electrolyte is still above the plates and if necessary top up with sulphuric acid solution;
Do not overfill!
4. Close the caps;
5. Mount the batteries on the machine (following the procedure described below).
6. Before starting up the machine for the first time, charge the batteries. Follow the instructions
in the relevant section.
5.4.2. Batteries: installation and connection
Check that all switches on the control panel are in the “0” (off) position. Make sure you
connect the terminals marked with a “+” to the positive poles of the battery. Do not check
the battery charge by sparking. Follow the instructions given below meticulously as short
circuiting the batteries could cause them to explode.
Danger
1. Make sure the two tanks are empty (if necessary, empty them. See the relevant paragraph).
2. Release the recovery tank (ref. 1) from the solution tank by pulling the catch. Tilt the recovery tank all the
way back to provide access to the battery compartment.

3. Place the batteries in the compartment in the direction shown in the drawing printed inside
the compartment on the solution tank.
Important
Mount the batteries on the machine using lifting means suitable for their weight.
The positive and negative poles have different diameters.
4. Referring to the wiring layout, connect the battery cable and bridge terminals to the battery poles. Arrange
the cables as shown in the diagram, tighten the terminals on the poles and cover with Vaseline.
5. Lower the recovery tank. Make sure it latches properly with the solution tank;
