BATTERY
6.1 The battery powered TILT operates on a single 24 VDC, 2.9 Ah battery with a separate battery charger
(FIG. 21). The battery charger operates off typical household power - 120 VAC at .5 amps - and must be
plugged into a properly grounded GFCI protected outlet.
If you are unsure if you have a properly grounded GFCI protected outlet, contact an electrical
contractor for assistance. Never remove a ground pin from any power cord and never use a
power cord that has the ground pin removed.

BATTERY CHARGING
7.1 Prior to first battery use, charge battery for 24 hours in order to reach proper function and prolong useful
lifetime.
7.1.1 After initial 24-hour charge, undamaged, functional batteries will fully charge in approximately
6 hours. Please note that charge times are heavily influenced by battery condition. Your charge
times may vary.
7.1.2 The number of cycles the TILT will complete before the battery loses charge depends on
battery condition, loads, and state of charge. A fully functional, undamaged, and fully charged
battery will operate approximately 20 cycles (one “cycle” of the TILT is defined as moving the
TILT up-and-down once or down-and-up once). Because batteries wear and age, battery
performance will naturally decrease and charging time will increase over time.
7.2 Remove battery from the mounting bracket (see ‘SECTION 5’).
7.3 Plug charging cord into battery as shown in FIG. 22. Charge the battery by plugging the 120 VAC battery
charger into a properly grounded GFCI protected outlet.
7.4 Battery has full charge when battery charger LED indicator turns green.
7.5 Once charged, unplug charging cord from battery, and then return battery to the mounting bracket.
7.6 Do not let batteries fully discharge before connecting to battery charger. To extend battery life, be sure
to charge the battery whenever possible. A large number of cycles can be obtained from battery
operation, but battery lifetime is reduced with frequent discharging.
7.7 To keep your TILT operational while the battery is charging, additional batteries are available. Contact
your Certified Dealer or Technician, or call 1-800-451-1903 for information.
