BATTERY CHARGING (110V IP65 CHARGER)
Check the battery fluid levels and charge in a well ventilated area, only
if Lead Acid batteries are fitted (not required for maintenance free AGM
batteries).
The battery charger is located under the checkerplate cover (
Pic A
)
.
The charging lead is fitted with a yellow 110V plug and is located on the
exterior of the machine base (
Pic B
)
. The input voltage is 90-135V AC.
Ensure the battery isolator is switched off when charging.
Plug into an available power supply and ensure the Yellow LED
illuminates. If the Yellow LED is flashing then disconnect and reconnect to
the power supply. If flashing continues then seek technical help.
The Yellow and Green LEDs indicate that the battery is charging (

)
.
The charge is complete when only the Green LED is on.
Additionally, the battery charge indicator on the pendant controller will
indicate charge level. The charge is complete when the 2 Green LEDs are
illuminated, if the LED indicator is fitted to the pendant controller (
Pic D
)
,
or the pointer is fully over to the right, if the Dial indicator is fitted to the
pendant controller (
Pic E
)
.
The battery charger can be connected to the mains supply at any
time or left for extended periods.
The machine can be operated when the charger is connected, although
this is not recommended.
All mains supply should be protected with a suitable RCD.
Note: The charger is fitted with a 10A automotive spade fuse (red). If the
fuse has failed, the indicator lights will still operate. The fuse may have
failed if the battery is heavily discharged and the motor is run when the
charger is switched on. In such an event, the fuse is simple to replace.
Ensure battery isolator is switched off and that the mains supply is
disconnected before attempting to check or change fuse.
