10.2.5 Battery charger in critical condition
In the event that the batteries are subject to deep-discharge or have been left discharged for
extended periods (>15 days), we recommend charging the battery at a constant current of 0.5 ÷
1.0 A for at least 10 ÷ 12 h, then proceed with normal charging as specified above.
10.3 INSTALLING THE BATTERY
• Open the cowling (A, Fig. 25) and install the battery in its housing (Fig. 27). Connect the
breather pipe (B, Fig. 27) to the battery;
• Remove the protective cap from the electrodes;
WARNING
When the machine will not be in use for any length of time, we recommend
disconnecting the leads from the positive terminal (+) and the negative terminal
(-) and cover the electrodes with the protective cap (C, Fig. 27).
• Connect the cable with the red cap to the positive (+) pole, and the cable with the black cap
to the negative (-) pole, using the appropriate bolts and nuts (D, Fig. 28). Protect the
connections with Vaseline and cover with the respective caps.
WARNING
Short-circuit hazard: Never directly connect the positive and negative terminals
of the battery with a cable or other metal object. Do not place tools on top of the
battery. Use tools (a screwdriver or pliers) with insulated handles only.
