Batteries
Permissible batteries
Traction batteries must be used in this machine (no wet battery sets,
starter or device batteries). We recommend the use of pure traction
batteries. Only these batteries can ensure a long service life.
Traction batteries are produced as closed and maintenance-free (VR-
LA) batteries (gel and AGM, Pure Lead, and lithium). The machine
must be adjusted accordingly for each design type and manufacturer.
Each battery has a different service life and performance.
The machine and charger must be programmed after the batteries
have been inserted, when the battery type and/or the manufacturer
are changed, and prior to starting the machine.
Incorrect adjustment may result in early battery failure.
Notice:
Do not use different, old batteries with new or de-
fective batteries.
Notice:
Old and/or defective batteries must be disposed of
properly. See the information on page 14
Safety measures to be taken when handling
batteries
Batteries contain acid. Always wear safety goggles
when performing maintenance, installing, or remov-
ing wet battery sets.
Rinse acid splashes in your eyes or on your skin with
plenty of clear water. Then immediately consult a
doctor. Wash your clothes with water!
Charging batteries creates a dangerous gas mixture.
Keep away from open fire or glowing embers.
Do not smoke!
Danger of acid burns!
Attention! The battery poles are always energized,
therefore do not place any objects on the batteries!
Caution:
Keep batteries clean and dry. Immediately wipe off
leaking acid or water.
- Wear protective gloves for this purpose.
Caution:
Batteries may only be installed by service agencies
or experts approved by Diversey; they must be in-
stalled in compliance with the connection diagram.
Installation and/or connection errors may result in se-
vere injury, explosion and major damage to the ma-
chine and the environment.
Caution:
Ensure adequate ventilation when charging the bat-
tery.
Notice:
The product safety data sheet provided by the bat-
tery manufacturer must be observed.
Notice:
The operating instructions provided by the battery
manufacturer must be met.
Caution:
Always disconnect the batteries from the machine
before starting maintenance work.
