MACHINE MAINTENANCE

1.At the end of each day’s operation, wipe off any dust from the transmitter and the receiver on the body of the machine.

2.At the end of each day’s operation, charge the transmitter battery if necessary.

Refer to Table 4 in the Troubleshooting section for periodic inspection and maintenance necessary for the machine.

MACHINE BATTERY MAINTENANCE

1.If a battery has not been used for some time, reduce the charge level initially to protect each plate inside the battery.

2.Check the battery terminals periodically to ensure that they are in good condition.

3.Use wire brush or sand paper to clean the battery terminals.

4.If the machine will not be in operation for a long period of time, charge the battery sufficiently, tighten all caps, correctly, store in cool dry place and check the battery charge level every month to maintain the performance of the battery.

BATTERY CABLE CONNECTION

1.When removing cable, disconnect the ground side (normally negative) first (Figure 16).

2.When installing cable connect the ground side (normally negative) last .

DANGER :

Lead-acid battery contains sulfuric acid, which may damage eyes or skin on contact.

Always wear a face shield to avoid acid getting into the eyes. If acid gets in contact with eyes,

flush immediately with clean water and get medical advice.

Wear rubber gloves and protective clothes to keep acid off skin. If acid gets in contact with skin, wash off immediately with clean water.

Use a flashlight to check battery electrolyte level. Always check the engine is stopped.

Do not charge battery or jump-start engine when the battery is frozen. Warm the battery to 15 degrees F or battery may explode.

Replace the battery with the same or similar capacity battery or battery may explode.

Do not close the exhaust outlet of battery. The gas pressure building up in the battery may cause explosion.

Before using a battery charger, read and understand the charger instruction manual thoroughly.

Charge the battery in a non-spark, well-ventilated area. Avoid fire from cigarette sparks or matches.

CAUTION :

1.If a battery has not been used for some time, reduce the charge level initially to protect each plate inside the battery.

2.Check the battery terminals periodically to ensure that they are in good condition.

3.Use wire brush or sand paper to clean the battery terminals.

4.If the machine will not be in operation for a long period of time, charge the battery sufficiently, tighten all caps, correctly, store in cool dry place and check the battery charge level every month to maintain the performance of the battery.

Wear safety glasses or face mask , protective clothes, and rubber gloves when working with battery.
