External Battery
If you’ve ordered your machine with an external battery, you have the
advantage of easily charging the battery separately from the machine
(your machine is also 6 to 7 kg (13 – 15 lbs) lighter than internal sealed
lead acid (SLA) battery machines). Your external battery has two plugs,
one for connecting to the machine (male) and the other is for connecting
to the charger (female). Please do not connect these together and always
disconnect the battery from the machine when not in use. There is no
need to remove the battery from the bag while charging.
Your battery should be
charged at least once per
month, even if it has not
been used. This will
maintain the life of the
battery.
When replacing the
battery, please wear
protective glasses,
clothes & gloves.
Please also use
electrical tape or
similar to cover the
battery terminals after
installation. Do not smoke or keep the battery near a ame source. The
battery is completely sealed, but in the event of damage where acid is
exposed to the skin or eyes, rinse with water and visit your doctor. Avoid
short circuiting the battery so as not to cause a re.
The external battery cable includes a 32V 15A fuse built into it (note: 32V
is correct for our 12V battery). If you are required to replace this, they can
be purchased from local electronic stores or your Spinre distributor. We
also include one spare inside the battery bag’s pocket.
