Pegasolift W12 Guia Uso Y La Mantenimento página 182

The stacker is equipped with two batteries 12V 98Ah GEL type without maintenance
because they are sealed and is not possible to open.
! Before to work on the battery, the start key should be disconnected.
! The places where the battery control is executed should be well aerated.
! Keep the batteries clean and dry; the connections should be well greased with anti-
acid material or with vaseline.
! Fix properly the terminals; the loose contacts provoke sparks, which could bring to the
blowing up of the battery.
! During the removal of the battery for maintenance or replacement, the poles should be
covered with plastic insulating tape to prevent short-circuits
! If is necessary to disconnect the battery from the system, it is necessary to disconnect
first the negative pole (-) and after the positive pole (+); in order to connect it again, first
proceed at connecting positive pole (+) and after the negative pole (-)
! Do not let for a long period of time the battery not charged or partially charged.
! There should be avoided the situations of partial charging of the battery of discharge
over the established limits and of overload. For an optimum life duration, avoid to
discharge the battery more than 70% of the normal capacity.
! For a longer duration of the battery it is necessary to make a full equalization loading at
least once a week.
INACTIVE OR IN DISCONTINUOUS SERVICE BATTERIES
During the periods of inactivity the batteries are discharged spontaneously (self
discharge); the self discharge provokes a sulphation of the poles with a progressive
degeneration of the capacity and efficiency of battery.
If the battery is not used continuously or remains inactive for long periods, submit them
at a refreshing charge at least once a month. In every case, before to put again in service
the stacker which remained for a long period of time inactive, execute a complete
charging process with the equalization process.
