MACHINE PREPARATION
If you have a battery version, before starting to work you must:
1.
Make sure the recovery tank is empty, otherwise empty it completely
2.
Check that the main switch (3) of the machine is set to "0"
3.
Connect the battery connector (1) to the electric system connector (2)
4.
Sit on the driver’s seat
5.
Check the parking brake is released (4)
6.
Turn the key of the main switch a quarter of a turn clockwise (to position 1). Immediately, on the
instrument panel, the display will turn on indicating the charge level of the batteries
7.
With switch-on, three consecutive screens are displayed on the monitor. The first screen shows (on the
top line) what type of hour-counter has been set; in this case it is a total hour-counter (to display a
different type - for instance partial - contact the qualified, COMAC-trained personnel). The bottom line
shows the “service” setting (in this case there is no setting)
8.
The second screen displays what battery technology has been set for machine operation; in this case it
is lead batteries (to set another type of battery - for instance gel - contact the qualified, COMAC-trained
personnel)
9.
The third and last screen (known as “work”) displays the battery charge status and the total functioning
time. When the batteries supplied are fully charged, the upper line contains 8 light indicators that
represent a battery. As the batteries gradually run down, the indicators go out and, with the batteries
completely run down, only the battery outline flashes. The bottom line indicates the hours and minutes
of functioning. The flashing “:” symbol indicates that the hour-counter is counting the machine
functioning time
