Battery uid is highly corrosive. Thoroughly rinse away any spilled uid with clean water.
Always replace batteries with Snorkel batteries or manufacturer approved replacements weighing 30 kg (66
lbs.) each.

• Check the battery uid level daily, especially if the machine is being used in a warm, dry climate.

• If electrolyte level is lower than 10 mm (3/8in.) above the plates add distilled water only. DO NOT use

tap water with high mineral content, as it will shorten battery life.

• Inspect the battery regularly for signs of cracks in the case, electrolyte leakage and corrosion of the

terminals.

• Inspect cables regularly for worn spots or breaks in the insulation and for broken cable terminals.

• Keep the terminals and tops of the batteries clean.

• Refer to the Service Manual to extend battery life and for

complete service instructions.

BATTERY CHARGING

Charge the batteries at the end of each work shift or sooner if the
batteries have been discharged.

Charge the batteries in a well ventilated area.
Do not charge the batteries when the machine is near a source of
sparks or ames.
Permanent damage to the batteries will result if the batteries are not
immediately recharged after discharging.
Never leave the battery charger operating for more than two days.
Never disconnect the cables from the batteries when the charger is
operating.
Keep the charger dry.

Check the battery uid level. If the battery uid level is lower 1.
than 10 mm (3/8 in.) above the plates add distilled water only.

Connect an appropriate extension cord to the charger outlet plug 2.
in the left module door. Plug the extension cord into a properly
grounded outlet of proper voltage and frequency.

The charger turns on automatically after a short delay. The 3.
LED charge indicator will illuminate. After completion of the
charge cycle the LED will blink, indicating that the charger is in
a continuing maintenance mode. DO NOT leave the charger
plugged in for more than 48 hours, as permanent damage to the
batteries may occur.

NOTE: The battery charger circuit must be used with a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupt) outlet.

NOTE: DO NOT operate the machine while the charger is plugged in.
