A3 - HYDRAULIC OIL LEVEL
CHECK
- Open the left hand cowling.
- Set the platform in transport position
- The oil level should reach the middle of signal light 1 (Fig. A3).
- If necessary, add oil (see chapter “LUBRICANTS”) via the fill orifice A (Fig.
A3).
A4 - BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
CHECK
Check the level of the electrolyte in each cell of the batteries.
- Remove the battery lids 1 (Fig. A4/1).
- Lift the cap 2 (Fig. A4/2) on each battery terminal.
- The level must be above the filter (see level in 3 (Fig. A4/2)).
- If necessary, top up with clean distilled water, stored in a glass carboy.
- Replace the caps 2 (Fig. A4/2).
A5 - DENSITY OF BATTERY ELECTROLYTE
CHECK
The specific gravity of the electrolyte with temperature, but a minimum of 1270
to 16° C must be maintained.
In the hatched part of figure (Fig. A5), the batteries are charged normally.
Above this area, the batteries need to be re-charged.
The specific gravity must not vary by 0,025 units from one battery cell any other.
- Check the electrolyte specific gravity in each element of the batteries with a
acetometer.
- Never check after filling with distilled water.
- Re-charge the batteries, and wait for 1 hour before checking the specific
gravity.
Handling and servicing a battery can be dangerous, take the
following precautions
- Wear protective goggles
- Handle batteries horizontally
- Never smoke or work near a naked flame
- Work in a well-ventilated area
- In the event of electrolyte being spilled onto the skin or splashed
in the eyes, rinse thoroughly with cold water for 15 minutes and
call a doctor.
