5200 & 5200QL SAFE OPERATION
INSTALLATION
1) To provide maximum reliability, charger must be installed in a well-ventilated area, so that free airflow is not
restricted through the side intake and exhaust vents.
2) Check polarity of battery posts. Positive (POS, P, +) and Negative (NEG, N, -). Attach positive (red) charger
lead to the positive battery post. Attach negative (black) charger lead to the negative battery post.
WARNING:
Do not disconnect DC charger leads during charging. Damage to the charger could result and void
the warranty.
WARNING:
Do not connect DC charger leads if the charger is connected to AC power. DC charger leads must be
connected first.
IMPORTANT TIP
These power packs can be charged when only partially discharged. Whenever stopping the machine for more than 15
minutes, hook the machine up to the charger’s. A good example is when stopping for lunch. Charging during this down
time will allow the batteries to be fully charged when going back to use the machine. You will find you can operate all day
long without having to change the battery packs. In a normal 8 hour working day of removal and reinstalling, machine
usually is in operation for approximately 3 hours of actual running time. Take advantage of charging the batteries during
down time. If using machine in a heavy demolition mode (continual operation), 3 battery packs are recommended to
allow for proper charging and cooling time.
COOLING TIME
Although it is not necessary, but if the batteries are allowed to cool back to room temperature after being charged, you
will get more life out of the batteries and charge cycle.
POWER PACK GENERAL INFORMATION
Normally the two power packs provided will give plenty of run time for the average working day. But, if it is a heavy demo
mode, continuous run all day, a third power pack may be required. This will also allow for a cool down period on charged
power packs. Although not necessary, this will give packs a longer life.
Power packs are designed to withstand high continuous shock load. They can be safely laid on the side, although
keeping them upright at all time is suggested. Remember packs are heavy, 120 pounds. Get help to remove packs if
weight is too much or you are under lifting restrictions. Do Not drop packs.
When Power packs have used their full life, they are recyclable at locations all over the US and Europe. Call National for
recycle center.
Power packs should only be maintained by certified National Technician.
Power packs are lead acid constructions. If packs are allowed to reach temperatures above 125° f, ventilation can occur
and discharge explosive gases (see warning label). How is this done wrong? Improper charger’s or improper
connections, allowing for direct short.
POWER PACK FREEZING
Freezing of the power packs will not be covered by warranty. Even though there is no liquid in the batteries, allowing
power packs that are discharged below 75% to sit in temperatures below 20° F for more than twenty four hours can
freeze. The colder the temperature the faster they will be damaged. Always recharge Power pack before allowing to sit in
cold temperatures or, hook to charger when conditions permit. This charging system can be left on the power packs
(maintenance mode) for long periods without damaging the power packs.
