WARNING
Risk of injury due to electrolyte-filled batteries
Electrolyte (battery acid) is toxic as well as caustic.
When handling battery acid, always adhere to the
prescribed safety measures Especially with freshly
charged batteries, observe explosion dangers in
gasing area.
DANGER
Risk of accident due to tipping over
A battery that is too light seriously reduces the
stability of the truck. As a result, there may be a risk
of the truck tipping over.
The voltage and weight of the battery must be in line
with the requirements of the truck rating plate. For
this reason, compare the rating plates of the vehicle
and the battery.
If a lighter battery is used temporarily, make up the
weight difference by means of a firmly mounted
ballast, and compensate for the different format
using shims. If your truck has been fitted with
an additional weight to compensate for a lighter
battery, this weight must not be removed. Ensure
compliance with the information given on the rating
plate.
Battery dimensions
The battery must fill the chamber with only
a few millimetres clearance. This prevents
the battery from slipping or even tilting during
operation. Observe the technical data of the
battery (number of the battery tray, voltage
and capacity of battery) according to order.
Battery type
CAUTION
Danger of material damage
Using the wrong charger can result in complete
failure of the battery.
Traction batteries used are lead, gel or dry
batteries. As the various types differ in
structure, the right chargers must be used
without fail in each case.
These order pickers are fitted with an inte-
grated battery discharge display which is set
