5. Troubleshooting
Nb: if the engine is not starting after several trials, it means the battery needs a complete charge or
that there is another breakdown.
- After the operation, unplug the DRIVE from the mains.
- Switch to STOP.
- Remove the clamps.
The machines do not detect the damaged or sulphated batteries.
a) Your battery is highly damaged if in charge, the ammeter positioner quickly indicates very high
intensities. Your battery is definitively damaged.
b) In case of a sulfated battery : put the machine on the strongest charge mode (DRIVE 430/24: 200-
525Ah / DRIVE 610/24: 200- 600Ah) and regularly watch if the ammeter indicates a charging
current. As soon as the charging rises, position the selector on the charge adapted to the battery. If
nothing happens after 5 hours, your battery is definitively damaged.
BATTERIES SULFATED OR DAMAGED
ANOMALIES
CAUSES
REMEDIES
Check the input
Problem of input from the main
Check the machine is on the charger
position
Polarity reversal or clamp in short
circuit.
Check if the fuses are not melted.
The battery to charge is faulty.
Check with a voltmeter the voltage on
the terminals. If the voltage rises
instantly at more than 2.5V per element,
the battery may be damaged or
sulphated.
Voltage error (12V or 24V)
Check the red cable is linked to the «+»
terminal of your DRIVE (12 or 24V)
The pointer of the machine
ammeter does not oscillate.
Following on a too intensive use,
your machine is off due to thermal
cut
Wait for few minutes (5 to 10 minutes)
to cool down the machine.
The battery is highly discharged
Keep the charge while keeping the
adjustments to the minimum.
Voltage error (12V or 24V)
Check the red cable is linked to the “+»
terminal of your DRIVE (12 or 24V)
The ammeter indicates more
than 20A whereas the selector
adjustment is at the minimum.
Some battery elements are in
short-circuit.
Change the battery
You are starting on the “charge”
mode of the machine.
Imperatively place the selector on the
“start” position whereas it could highly
damaged your machine.
Rearm the circuit breaker.
The machine trips
A 12V battery is charged on the
24V output.
Connect the red cable on the +12 V
output of the DRIVE.
