To Charge Batteries

This machine is equipped with an AC voltage input/DC voltage
output battery charger. The charger automatically terminates
charging when the batteries reach full capacity.

NOTE: The platform drive function is disabled when the battery

charger is plugged into an AC receptacle.

LEAD ACID BATTERIES MAY GENERATE EXPLOSIVE HYDROGEN GAS
DURING NORMAL OPERATION. KEEP SPARKS, FLAMES, AND SMOK-
ING MATERIALS AWAY FROM BATTERIES. PROVIDE ADEQUATE VENTI-
LATION DURING CHARGING. NEVER CHARGE A FROZEN BATTERY.
STUDY ALL BATTERY MANUFACTURERS’ SPECIFIC PRECAUTIONS
SUCH AS RECOMMENDED RATES OF CHARGE AND REMOVING OR
NOT REMOVING CELL CAPS WHILE CHARGING.

1. Park machine in a well ventilated area near an AC voltage

electrical wall outlet.

NOTE: To maximize battery life, it is recommended the batteries

be charged continuously for a minimum of four (4) hours
when drained to Warning Levels 2 and 3, See Warning
Level Chart on previous page.

2. Always use a grounded AC

outlet. Connect charger to
an outlet that has been
properly installed and
grounded in accordance
with all local codes and
ordinances. A grounded
outlet is required to reduce
risk of electric shock – do
not use ground adapters or
modify plug. When using an
extension cord, avoid
excessive voltage drops by
using a grounded 3-wire 12
AWG cord.
