INSTALL THE BATTERIES

WARNING!

Use extreme caution when working with batteries. Sulfuric acid in batteries can cause severe injury if allowed to contact the skin or eyes. Explosive hydrogen gas is vented from the batteries through openings in the battery caps. This gas can be ignited by any electrical arc, spark or flame. Do not install any lead-acid battery in a sealed container or enclosure. Hydrogen gas from overcharging must be allowed to escape.

When Servicing Batteries...

*Remove all jewelry

*Do not smoke

*Wear safety glasses, rubber gloves and a rubber apron

*Work in a well-ventilated area

*Do not allow tools to touch more than one battery terminal at a time

*ALWAYS disconnect the negative (ground) cable first when replacing batteries to prevent sparks.

*ALWAYS connect the negative cable last when installing batteries.

CAUTION!

Electrical components in this machine can be severely damaged if the batteries are not installed and connected properly. Batteries should be installed by Nilfisk or by a qualified electrician.

1Remove the batteries from their shipping crate and carefully inspect them for cracks or other damage. If damage is evident, contact the carrier that delivered them or the battery manufacturer to file a damage claim.

2Turn the Master Key Switch (A) OFF and remove the key.

3Remove the recovery tank from the machine. NOTE: Disconnect the tether and the vacuum motor wiring and lift the tank straight up and off the machine.

4Your machine comes from the factory with enough battery cables to install six 6 volt batteries. Using at least (2) people and an appropriate lifting strap, carefully lift the batteries into the battery compartment and arrange them exactly as shown in FIGURE 1. Secure the batteries as close to the front of the machine as possible. If installing a mono-block battery use an overhead hoist.

5Install the battery cables as shown. Position the cables so the battery caps can be easily removed for battery service.

6Carefully tighten the nut in each battery terminal until the terminal will not turn. Do not over-tighten the terminals, or they will be very difficult to remove for future service.

7Coat the terminals with spray-on battery terminal coating (available at most auto parts stores).

8Put one of the black rubber boots over each of the terminals and connect the Battery Pack Connector (20).
