BATTERY CHARGER CONFIGURA-
TION
We recommend to call the assistance centre or
a technician if you have problems with the setting
given.
The machine is equipped with a battery charger
configurated for PB-Acid batteries
If the operator whish to use GEL / AFGM batteries,
it is necessary change the battery charger settings
as follows:
DISPLAY OF THE BATTERY CHARGER SETTINGS
The battery charger settings are shown by the
blinking of the LED indicator when the battery
charger is switching on:
- the RED LED indicator ( Photo I - 2 ) flashes
2 times = the battery charger is set for PB-Acid
batteries
- the GREEN LED indicator ( Photo I - 3 )
flashes 2 times = the battery charger is set for
GEL batteries
The battery charger settings will be displayed even
if batteries are not connected.
DIP-SWITCH CONFIGURATION FOR BATTERY
CHARGER CBHD2 24V 20A
To set the charging curve type for Pb-Acid or
GEL/AGM batteries it is necessary to operate on
the dip-switches placed inside the battery
charger ( Photo I -4 ).
The dip-switches for the setting of the charging
curve are on the control card ( Photo I - 4 ) that
is placed behind the lower panel of the battery
charger ( Photo I - 1 ). It is also possible to reach
the dip-switches by removing the plastic cap (
Photo I - 5 ).
For the setting of the charging curve it is neces-
sary to operate on the dip-switches of the group
indicated as SW1 ( Photo I - 6 ), placing them
as shown in the table ( Photo I - 6) at page 7.
NOTE: The dip-switches of the group indicated as
SW2
must always be set in the OFF posi-

6. INSTALLATION INFORMATION
6.1
BATTERY PREPARATION
The technical features of the batteries used
must match those indicated in the technical fea-
tures section. Using different batteries may cause
serious damage to the machine or may require
them to be charged more frequently.
During installation or when performing any
type of battery maintenance, the operator must
be equipped with adequate safety accessories to
prevent accidents. Work far from open flames, do
not short-circuit the battery poles, do not generate
sparks and do not smoke.
The batteries are normally supplied full of acid so-
lution (for the Pb-Acid type) and ready for use. In
any case, follow the steps indicated in the manual
supplied with the battery and carefully follow the
instructions regarding safety and operating proce-
dures.

BATTERY
PREPARATION
These operations must be carried out by spe-
cialised personnel.
Make sure the two tanks are empty. If not, empty
them in accordance with the specific procedure.
Lift the recovery tank by 90°, making sure it is sta-
ble in that position. This provides access to the
battery compartment from the top.
Disconnect the Anderson connector of the battery
wiring from the Anderson connector of the machine
wiring. Always hold the connectors with the hands
and never pull on the cables.
Attach the battery wiring to the battery,
connecting the terminals only on the poles
marked with the same symbol (red wiring
"+", black wiring "-")! A battery short-circuit
may cause an explosion!
Run the cables toward the wiring outlet opening
(on one side of the box, only for Pb-Acid batteries),
tighten the terminals at the poles and cover them
with Vaseline.
Insert the battery putting the opening in the box
(only for the Pb-Acid battery) in a position to run
the electric wiring to the connector of the machine
wiring.
After checking that all the controls on the panel
are in position "0" or at rest, connect the battery
connector to the machine connector.
Close the battery compartment (lowering the
recovery tank) making sure not to crush any wires.
