Avant e6

Charger plug type
Standard, integrated charger of the loader:
The standard plug type to connect the loader to
electric outlet is grounded CEE 7/7, commonly
known in Europe as "Schuko" type. If you use the
loader in areas where different kind of plug is
needed, your local Avant dealer will give you any
needed additional information. Regardless of the
type of the plug, other instructions in this chapter
apply to all electric Avant loaders.
External Avant charger:
The external charger has a IEC 60309 system type
electric plugs (also known as CEE plug). There are
two models of chargers, one intended to be
connected to 400 V / 16 A 3-phase electric power
outlet, and one for 400 V / 32 A 3-phase power
outlet.
DANGER
Always ensure that the electric
power outlet is properly
installed and rated for the
charger application. Never
attempt to replace electric
connectors by yourself - Risk of
electric shock.
Always ensure
that the power outlet is installed by
a professional electrician, and that
the power outlet is fully connected,
including the grounding/earth wire.
Never modify electric power outlets
and connectors, refer to a
professional, licensed electrician if
you are unsure of the suitability of
an electric outlet, or need any
advice about possible electric
connectors, voltage, and ampere
ratings at your area.
If the use of electric plug or socket adapters can't be
avoided, use only high-quality versions that are rated
for outdoor use and that have also the grounding
wire connected.
Keep extension cables as short as possible. Use
good quality cables that have adequate cable cross-
section for the required current.
CAUTION
Risk of cable overheat and fire -
Avoid using extension cables.
Long or thin extension cables can
heat significantly during charging
and melt, causing risk of electric
shock or fire. Avoid using
extension cables. If necessary, use
only as short as possible, good
quality cable with large enough
conductor cross-section.
CAUTION
Risk of electric shock or fire-
Avoid additional plug adapters.
Bad quality adapters can be
inadequately protected against
dust and water. Some can even
leave the pins of the plug exposed,
creating a serious risk of electric
shock. Never use plugs that leave
the grounding wire unconnected.
Contact a local licenced electrician
to replace the plug if necessary.
CAUTION
Risk of battery overheat and fire
- Use only the built-in charger of
the loader to ensure correct
charge cycle.
The current and
voltage output are optimized in the
integrated charger, and the
external Avant chargers intended
for this loader, to ensure quick
charge and long life of the battery.
Modified or different type of
charger can overheat the battery or
cause sparks, creating fire. Too
high current or voltage can
damage the battery or its control
electronics.
