860-7100-19 DTU Operation Manual
Maintenance Instruction Notes
ODYSSEY® batteries are very di󰀨erent from standard liquid-
acid batteries that are openly vented. ODYSSEY battery is and
operates as a sealed battery, recycling nearly all gases internally
under normal operating conditions. There is no corrosion of
positive terminal or corrosion to surrounding area. Three year
service life is expected when proper charging and storage
procedures are followed.
BATTERY GAUGE
A battery gauge is also provided on control panel to show state of
charge.
Battery meter has 10 LEDS to show battery condition. When fully
charged, only 10th green LED will light. As battery discharges,
successively lower LEDs will light (9th, 8th, 7th and so on, lighting
only 1 LED at a time).
- At approximately 30% battery life, #3 LED will light and
color is yellow.
- At approximately 20% battery life remaining, #2 LED will
light as a ashing yellow.
- When battery discharges to approximately ~10% remaining
life, #1 LED will start ashing red with #2 LED ashing
yellow alternately.
Machine uses 2 ODYSSEY® AGM batteries wired in series
to provide 24VDC power source for control system and travel
motors. Part# 31-PC2150, 12VDC, 100Ah at 20hr rating (5A
for 20 hours).There is a battery timeout feature to save power
if left unattended. Inactivity timeout equals 6 minutes. Ensure
charger is set to AGM. Use rotary disconnect to isolate batteries
from electrical system. Batteries can be accessed under middle
conveyor unit. Batteries are maintenance free, but periodic
inspection is required.
NOTE: AGM valve-regulated battery eliminates need for vent
tubes. Further, no battery watering is required and there is no fear
of acid burns or damage to nishes. Due to starved electrolyte
design, the US Department of Transportation (USDOT) has
classied ODYSSEY battery as a dry battery.

Operating Instruction Notes
Battery gauge is provided on control panel to show state of charge
when machine is started. To get long service life from batteries, it
is important batteries are kept near full charge, approximately
12.8 volts.
It can take up to 8 hours to fully charge machine if it is 100%
discharged. When machine is connected to 3 phase supply and is
started, charger operates automatically to maintain proper battery
charge on both batteries independently.
WARNING: When machine is not in use for extended periods,
charger power cable must be plugged into an electrical wall outlet
with an extension cord to prevent deep discharge and prolong
battery service life. The recommended connection period is ve
days.

NEVER charge in an air tight compartment. NEVER attempt to
remove top decal cover, as it will cause battery to fail.
