How To Prepare the Machine For Operation

How to Charge the Batteries

WARNING: Charging the batteries in an area without adequate ventilation could result in an explosion. To prevent an explosion, charge the batteries only in an area with good ventilation.

WARNING: Lead acid batteries generate gases which could explode.Keep sparks and flames away from batteries.

NO SMOKING!

CAUTION: See Charger Owner’s Manual. All onboard battery chargers are programmed for a specific type battery. The charger may need reprogramming to properly charge replacement batteries different than the origi- nally equipped Nilfisk ALTO battery.

NOTE: Only replace batteries with the identical Nilfisk ALTO battery pack as originally equipped. The correct Nilfisk ALTO battery part number can be found on the Nilfisk ALTO battery label affixed to the top of each battery.

If the replacement battery is a different Nilfisk ALTO battery, please contact Nilfisk ALTO Technical Service, 1-800-356-7274, for instruc- tions.

If the replacement battery is not a Nilfisk ALTO battery, please contact the charger manufacturer for instructions.

To charge the batteries, follow this procedure:

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

2.Raise the seat base support.

3.Connect the battery charger AC cord to a properly grounded wall receptacle matching plug configuration (50/60 Hz).

4.Observe indicator light to ensure the charging process has started (see figure 5, A - Red, B - Yellow, C - Green ). For color indications see figure 6.

Recharging the Batteries

The Scrubtec R comes with an on board charger.

1.Plug into any wall socket and charging is automatic.

2.Observe indicator light to ensure the charging process has started (see figure 5, A - Red, B - Yellow, C - Green ). For color indications see figure 6.

NOTE: Make sure you plug into a circuit that is not loaded by other equip- ment. Wall breakers may be tripped and no charge will occur.

WARNING: Never charge a GEL battery with an unsuitable battery charger. Carefully follow the instructions given by the manufacturer of the batteries and battery charger.

NOTE: To prevent permanent damage to the batteries, avoid their complete discharge. Never leave the batteries completely discharged, even if the machine is not being used. When recharging the batteries, keep the base support of the seat lifted. After every 20 recharging operations, check the level of the electrolyte and if necessary top off with distilled water.
