B10 - BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
CHECK
Check the electrolyte level in each cell of the battery.
If the lift truck is working in a high temperature environment, check the level more
frequently than every 50 hours service.
- Open the side bonnet.
- Disassemble the fastening plate 1 (fig. B10/1).
- Remove caps 2 (fig. B10/2) from each cell of the battery.
- The level is correct when it is 1,5 cm above the top of the plates in the battery.
- If necessary, top up the cells with clean distilled water that has been stored in a glass
container.
- Clean and dry caps 2 (fig. B10/2) and refit in place and screw in firmly.
- Check the terminal connections and lightly smear them with petroleum jelly to prevent the
formation of verdigris.
- Reassemble the fastening plate 1 (fig. B10/1).
Handling and servicing a battery can be dangerous, take the following precautions:
- Wear protective goggles.
- Keep the battery horizontal.
- Never smoke or work near a naked flame.
