Installing the Battery Pack

1. Carefully align the batt ery jack on the batt ery pack with the batt ery ter-

minal on the bott om of the pump base plate and push the batt ery pack
into place.

2. Insert and tighten two security screws

provided.

3. Charge

batt ery completely before operating

pump (see Charging the Batt ery Pack).

Charging the Battery Pack

For optimum charge, ensure the pump is not
running while charger is att ached. To charge the
batt ery, orient plug on charging cable properly (see
caution and photo below
). Insert the charging plug
from the charger into the batt ery charging jack on the
back of the pump. Plug the charger into a standard
wall outlet. The PowerFlex Charger will fully
recharge the batt ery in 6 to 8.5 hours (see Accessories
on page 30 for charger)
. Follow charger instructions.

Ensure proper orientation of charging cable plug before
inserting it into the charging jack. Improper orientation/contact
will short-circuit the battery. See photo at right. Note the keyed
side of the charging cable plug must mate with the keyed side
of the pump charging jack. Inserting the plug does not take
much force. If force is required, the plug is not properly oriented.

Short-circuiting the battery pack will render it immediately
inoperative.

After charging the battery pack, it is good practice to run the pump for approximately
fi ve minutes before calibrating. This ensures the battery is in more steady-state
conditions and improves the agreement in pre and post-sampling calibrations.

Do not charge or operate pump from charger in hazardous locations.

Use only SKC-approved charger designated for this model to ensure reliable
performance. Failure to do so voids any warranty.

Failure to follow warnings and cautions voids any warranty.

The battery pack may be kept on the SKC-approved charger for an indefi nite time.
