5 Operation
Cold store application
WARNING
Risk of injury!
If condensation water freezes in the cold store, do
not try to free blocked parts with your hands.
– Drive the truck for 5 minutes or so and
operate the brake several times to ensure
operational safety.
– Actuate all of the mast’s lifting functions
several times.
This warm-up phase is necessary to ensure
that the oil reaches the operating temperature.
– Always park the truck outside the cold store.
CAUTION
Risk of component damage!
Batteries should not be left in the cold store over-
night without power uptake or charging.
– Charge the battery outside the cold store
and operate the truck using a replacement
battery.
Using batteries in the cold store
To compensate for the reduction in capacity
at low temperatures, it is advisable to use
batteries with the maximum nominal capacity
in the respective battery dimensions for the
range.
Electric forklift trucks should not be parked
for any longer than necessary in a cold area.
This also applies to unused batteries. The
charging station and the parking area for
trucks and batteries should be at normal
room temperature (not below 10°C). Charging
is extremely slow at low temperatures. At
temperatures below 10°C and with the usual
charging parameters, the battery cannot be
fully charged.
The battery must be fully charged before each
shift.
Purified water (topping-up water) should be
used constantly during the gassing phase to
ensure that it is mixed thoroughly with the
remaining acid. If the top-up water is not
mixed, it may freeze.
