PERIODIC BATTERY SERVICE
• Keep the battery clean and dry.
• Keep the electrolyte level at 10 to 15 mm above
the plates or at the indicated level; top up with
distilled water only. Never overfill, as this will
cause poor performance and excessive corrosion.
• Record the quantity of distilled water added.
• Keep the terminals and clamps tight, clean, and
lightely covered in petroleum jelly.
• Carry out periodic condition tests. Test intervals
of 1 to 3 months, depending on climate and
operating conditions, are recommended.
If doubtful conditions are noticed or malfunctions
arise, keep in mind that the cause may be in the
electical system, e.g.loose terminals, voltage
regulator maladjusted, poor performance of
compressor, etc...
STORAGE
Run the compressor regularly, e.g. twice a week, until
warm.
Load and unload the compressor a few times to
operate the unloading and regulating components.
Close the air outlet valves after stopping.
