Maintenance and Care
5.4.2 Servicing the driving batteries
Checking the acid level
The battery acid level must be checked
by the customer on a weekly basis and
distilled water must be topped up, if
necessary; also refer to Section 5.3.1.
There must be no naked
flames used in the vicinity
wh
en handling batteries, par-
ticularly when checking the
acid level.
The battery cells are provided with fill
level indicators (Fig. 22/6) which ensure
the correct height of electrolyte is main-
tained: The white point must be clearly
visible at the top. If this is not the case,
distilled water must be refilled.
Topping up the battery is completed via
the connection coupling, the aquamatic
plug (Fig. 22/7), which is then connect-
ed to the water filling device. This is not
part of the scope of delivery.
Details on the filling process are con-
tained in the manual provided with the
water filling device.
Spilled battery acid must never
enter the sewage system in its
ini
tial form, it must be neutral-
ized beforehand: e.g. diluted
with ple
nty of water or ab-
sorbed with granulate.
Checking the acid density and volt-
age of each cell
These points must be checked and cor-
rected at regular intervals within the
scope of Hako system maintenance by
an authorized service center.
Also refer to the information in
the supplementary sheet 88-
60-2
556 "Information on driv-
ing batteries".
5.4.3 Disassembling the trough bat-
tery
1. Park the machine on a level area of
floor.
Turn the key switch to position
0 and remove the key.
2. Open the side doors to the left and
right (Fig.
23/3).
3. Positioned on the right-hand side of
the ve
hicle, take hold of the seat con-
sole at the handle (Fig. 23/2) and piv-
ot up towards the front.
Pivot the seat console
(Fig. 23/1) open from the right-
han
d side of the vehicle other-
wise your hands could be
crushed between the seat con-
sole and cab safety roof (if fit-
ted).
4. Disconnect the battery and vehicle
plu
g (Fig. 23/5+6).
When disassembling the
trough battery, use appropriate
lifti
ng gear.
The battery may only be disas-
sembled using lifting gear by
prope
rly trained personnel.
If the Hakomatic B1050 is
equipped with a cab safety
roof,
lift the trough battery out
on the left-hand side of the bat-
tery. The cab safety roof has a
recess (Fi
g. 23/4) for the lifting
gear rope.
5. Guide the lifting gear from the left to
the battery and hang the hooks in the
fitting holes on the battery trough
(Fig. 23/7).
6. Lift the battery trough out of the vehi-
