4.9 BATTERY CHARGING - LITHIUM-ION
MACHINE
To check the battery condition on the lithium
ION equipped machine, power up the machine
and use the special indicator shown at position
8 on the platform control station LCD display.
or;
Check the charge indicator (item 2) on the
side of the Lithium-Ion battery pack. This
indicator shows the current charge state of
the lithium-ion battery pack as follows;
Red Steady: first phase of recharging.
Red flashing: second phase of recharging.
Orange/yellow steady: third phase of recharging.
Orange/yellow flashing (4s ON - 1s OFF): equalization/standby
phase. When you're in this phase, batteries can be considered
charged. The charger is doing the batteries voltage equaliza-
tion at first and then it's in standby maintaining batteries at max
charge. The time for equalization can be of some hours but it's
not necessary to complete it in order to consider the recharge
phase completed.
If the machine is powered on while charging,
the LCD display on the platform control station
also shows the machine charge indicator.
Charging the Battery Pack
Approximate time required to fully recharge the battery pack:
• Full Recharge -8 hrs. - 120V AC
4 hrs. - 220V AC
• 80% Recharge - 4 hrs. - 120V AC
2 hrs. - 220V AC
• The batteries can be charged during machine operation,
(obviously the charging times in this case will be longer).
• The batteries can be charged when they are not fully
depleted.
• If the charge is less than 20% an audible warning signal
will be activated whenever the electric motor is started,
to alert the user to charge the machine.
• If the charge is less than 10%, in addition to the audible
warning signal, reduced speed is activated and an icon
comes on in position 4 on the platform station LCD dis-
play.
To start charging the battery connect the main AC power sup-
ply to the AC socket
(item 1 - photo) located on the right rear
of the machine next to the electric engine.
After a few seconds the charge indicator (item 2 - photo)
located on the righthand side of the machine on the lithium-ion
battery pack turns red, meaning the battery has started charg-
ing.
