C3 - Density of the electrolyte in the battery
CHECK
- There are two types of battery: refillable and non-refillable
- To use batteries of the refillable type, follow the instructions below.
- Do not use batteries or charge them if the level of fluid in them is below the bottom marking.
Otherwise, the sections in the battery element could be damaged and shortened the battery’s
service life or cause an explosion. Immediately add distilled water until the battery fluid level is
between the top and bottom markings.
- Ensure that each electrolyte level is at the bottom of the ventilation well (Fig. C3-1): the
electrolyte’s density varies according to the temperature, but a minimum of 1270 at 16°c must
be maintained.
- In the hatched section (Fig. C3-2), the battery is charged normally. Above the hatched section,
the battery must be recharged. The density should not vary by 0.0025 units from one battery
element to the other.
- Recharge the battery and wait 1 hour before checking the electrolyte density in each battery
element with an acidometer.
- Never check just after having added distilled water.
Manipulating and servicing a battery can be dangerous operations; take the
f
ollowing precautions:
- Wear safety goggles.
- Keep the battery ’horizontal while manipulating it.
- Never smoke or work close to a naked flame.
- Work in a sufficiently well-ventilated area.
- If any electrolyte should splash on your skin or in your eyes, rinse the affected
area thoroughly with cold water for 15 minutes and call a doctor.
C4 - Tilt sensor
CHECK
Remarks: perform this test on the ground with the platform controller. Do not stand up in the platform.
- Lower the platform fully.
- Drive two wheels on the same side over a 10cm wedge or a pavement kerb.
- Lift the platform at least 1.8m from the ground.
- Result: the platform must stop and the tilt alarm sound at 180 beeps per minute. The indicator on the lifting confirmation button must
be red.
- Move the translation control handle in the direction indicated by the blue arrow, then in the direction indicated by the yellow arrow.
- Result: the translation function must not be active in any of the directions.
- Lower the platform and take the machine off the wedge.
In the event of a malfunction prevent use of the platform. Contact your dealer.
