Charging the batteries
!
WARNING!
Keeping the batteries charged lengthens their life.
!
WARNING!
When the batteries are fl at, make sure they do not remain in this condition for long as this would shorten their
life.
Check the battery charging status at least once a week!
!
WARNING!
For machines without on-board battery charger, use a battery charger suitable for the type of batteries in-
stalled.
!
ATTENTION!
Charging lead batteries with liquid acid (WET) produces highly explosive hydrogen gas. Only charge in areas
that are well-ventilated and far from open fl ames.
Do not smoke during battery charging.
Keep the batteries holder case in the extracted position during battery charging.
!
ATTENTION!
Be very careful when charging the lead batteries with liquid acid (WET) as small quantities of liquid could leak
from the batteries. This liquid is corrosive; if it comes into contact with the skin or eyes, wash abundantly with
water and immediately contact a doctor.
Charging the batteries, for machines with no on-board battery charger
(Using an external battery charger)
1. Take the machine to a suitable area to charge the batteries.
2. Open the batteries holder case and disconnect the batteries connector (see procedure in the previous para-
graph).
3. Only for lead batteries (WET):
•
check the correct level of the electrolyte inside the batteries (E); restore it through the cap (F) if necessary.
•
leave all caps (F) open for subsequent charging.
•
clean (if necessary) the upper surface of the batteries.
4. Check the suitability of the battery charger to be used by referring to its instructions. The nominal voltage of
the battery charger must be equal to 24V.
5. After disconnecting the batteries connector (G), connect the connector (H) to the external battery charger.
6. Connect the battery charger to the electrical mains.
The batteries start charging.
7. When they are charged, disconnect the battery charger from the electrical mains and from the batteries con-
nector (H).
8. (only for lead batteries (WET)) Check the correct level of the electrolyte inside the batteries and close all the
caps (F):
9.
Connect the batteries connector and close the batteries holder case (see procedure in the previous paragraph).
10. Charging is complete.
