Charging site
Charge the loader in shade. In direct sunlight the
battery may overheat during recharge.
Choose a well ventilated place, where you can leave
the loader safely for recharge. When charging,
proper provision must be made for venting of the
charging gases. Never recharge in a closed building
without good ventilation.
Charge after loader is allowed to cool
During recharge the temperature of the electrolyte
rises by about 10°C, so begin to charge the loader
only if the electrolyte temperature is below 45°C.
The loader is equipped with a cooling fan that is
intended to cool the battery and electric components
inside the loader. The fan is activated automatically
when the temperature of the inverter, electric motors,
or the battery has risen above a determined level.
