MOUNTING THE CHARGER BRACKET (
Fig.3)
1. If you intend to charge the Sweeper in the charger bracket
follow the instructions under assembly instructions on attach­ing the plug clamp in this manual.
2. Remove the two screws and the plastic anchors from the plastic bag .
3. Use the charger bracket (7) to mark the locations of the holes required. Be sure to mount the bracket high
enough so that the Sweeper can hang freely from it; about
1.2m (4 feet) from the floor.
4. Drill a 5.5 mm (7/32”) diameter hole at each marked location.
5. Insert the plastic anchors into the holes and insert one of the screws in each one. Tighten the screws until the heads are above the anchors just enough so that the charger bracket will fit between the anchor and the screw head.
6. Place the charger bracket on the wall (narrow end up) and make sure that the power cord is positioned in the side slot (9). Press the charger bracket over the screw heads and slide it down until it sits firmly on the screws.
7. Firmly tighten both screws.
NOTE: If you prefer to charge the unit without the use of the
wall mounted charger bracket, remove the two screws (8) and remove the charger plug from the bracket. (Fig. 3).
Simply plug the charger into the unit to charge (4).
TO CHARGE YOUR BATTERY, FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW
1. Install the sweeper onto the charger bracket by positioning the hanging recess, shown in FIG 3 over the upper hook of
of the charger bracket.
2. Rotate the sweeper down, keeping the upper hook engaged with the hanging recess, and position the locating recess over the lower boss of the charger bracket.
3. Plug the charger cord into any standard 230 volt, 50Hz
outlet. The red LED should be glowing.
Charging will begin immediately and continue at a slow trickle rate until you remove the sweeper from the bracket.
