Battery Recharging
To charge the batteries, park the Tow Tractor safely in the
designated place, and ensure that it is sufficiently ventilated in
order to remove the hazardous gas generated during battery
charging.
During battery charging, make sure to open the top cover of
the battery to provide sufficient ventilation of the gas generated
during charging. Never place any metal tools or parts upon the
battery during charging, as a metal object could result in a
short-circuit.
Before starting to recharge the battery, make sure to check the
battery cables, connectors and the battery cells for defective
parts. Never place electrically conductive parts on the battery
cell connectors.
• First shut off the truck with the KEY switch
• Press the emergency stop button (for models equipped with
the emergency stop button).
• Open the battery's top cover.
• Pull the battery connector out from the Tow Tractor connec-
tor.
• Connect the connector of the battery to the connector of the
charger.
• Once charging is completed, disconnect the battery connec-
tor from that of the charger.
• Connect the battery connector to that of the Tow Tractor.
• Close the battery top cover and ensure that the battery cable
will not be damaged.
The battery charger must be in compliance with the
specifications provided by the manufacturer of the Tow Tractor
or the battery. For further information on battery recharging,
please refer to the technical documents provided by the
supplier of the battery or charger.
