How To Prepare the Machine For Operation

How To Handle the Packed Machine

The machine is packed in a specific package provided on a pallet so that it can be moved with a forklift.

WARNING: The packages cannot be placed on top of each other.

How to Unpack the Machine

1.Remove the outer package.

2.The machine is fixed on the pallet with banding straps and wooden blocks to prevent movement during shipment. Remove the bands and blocks.

3.Remove tie down brackets.

4.Lower the ramp. The machine can be lowered off the pallet if the operator is thoroughly familiar with its operation. Avoid violent blows to the base unit.

5.Keep the pallet for future transport necessities.

How to Install the Batteries

WARNING: The batteries are heavy. Lifting batteries without help could result in an injury. Get help to lift the batteries.

WARNING: Working with batteries can be dangerous. Always wear eye protection and protective clothing when working near batteries. NO SMOKING!

WARNING: Hydrogen gas is formed during the charging opera- tion and is explosive. Only charge batteries in a well ventilated area with the seat base lifted.

The batteries are fitted in the battery compartment under the seat and recovery tank (figure 4). The machine uses six - 6 volt batteries. They must be handled by using appropriate lifting equipment suitable for the weight and for the coupler system. For maintenance and daily recharge of the batteries, it is necessary to follow all instructions given by the manufacturer.

For Battery Installation follow these steps (See figure 4):

1.Make sure that the key switch is in the “OFF” position.

2.Lift and rotate the base support of the seat forward.

3.Lean the seat on it’s restraint cable.

4.Lift the front of the recovery tank and rotate it towards the rear until it rests on it’s restraint cable.

5.Put the batteries into position and connect the battery cables as shown in figure 3.

6.Rotate the recovery tank and then carefully rotate it forward to the normal operating position.

7.Lower the base support of the seat. NOTE: Charge the batteries before using.
