CHARGER TIMER
The charger timer controls the battery charger on
machines below serial number 003860. To start
the battery charger, turn the timer knob to the
number of hours you wish to charge the batteries.
The timer will automatically stop the charger.
CHARGER GAUGE
The charger gauge indicates the level of charge
being passed to the batteries on machines below
serial number 003860. The gauge needle should
be in the green area when charging and in the
black area when done.
BATTERY DISCHARGE INDICATOR
The battery discharge indicator is an option on
machines below serial number 003860. It
indicates the present state of charge of the
batteries. The display should be on the F mark of
the gauge when the batteries are fully charged.
As the batteries discharge, the display will move
down near the E mark. The batteries should be
recharged when the display gets to the 1/4 mark.
VOLTMETER
The voltmeter indicates the present state of
battery charge on machines serial number 003860
and above. The needle should be in the white
zone when the batteries are fully charged. As the
batteries discharge, the needle will move into the
green zone. Recharge the batteries when the
needle consistently stays in the red zone.
NOTE: Do not charge the batteries more often
than is necessary. This will prolong the life of the
batteries. Do not allow the batteries to become
fully discharged as this will also damage the
batteries. See BATTERIES in the
MAINTENANCE section.
HOUR METER
The hour meter records the number of hours the
machine has operated. This information is useful
in determining when to service the machine.
HAZARD LIGHT SWITCH
The hazard light switch is present on machines
with the flashing or revolving light accessory. To
operate the hazard light, move the switch to the
top position. To stop the light, move the switch to
the bottom position.
