The battery charger can run with a voltage range 230 VAC, for the use with different voltages it is advisable to
use a proper charger.
Uncoil the cable from the cable reel located on board the machine and connect the plug pos.5 into a standard electrical
power socket. While plugging the socket, the display on the charger (pos.1) will come on and start reading which type
of battery is being used (whether “ACD” or “GEL”).
At this point the charger will make a test to check if it is necessary to charge the battery. In this case, the charging
sequence will be enabled. If the battery does not need to be charged, the charging sequence will not be activated.
If the battery is not connected to the charger or it has reversed polarity, the display will read the following: “BAT”.
