External battery charging
The additional option for external battery charging ensures that the drive
engine’s starter battery is permanently charged. This increases safety of
use by enabling trouble-free engine start-up (if the starter battery is in per-
fect condition). With this option, your Generators has an integrated auto-
matically operated battery charger that is supplied with a 230 V AC
connection.
WARNING!
Escaping corrosive acid fumes or sulphuric acid during and after the
charging process. A risk of suffering severe or even deadly burns.
► Only work with acid-resistant protective equipment.
► Clean surfaces covered in acid immediately using adequate amounts of wa-
ter.
► Only charge the starter battery in a well ventilated environment.
WARNING!
During the charging process, never undo the cable connections to the
starter battery. Before you start the power generator, you must end the
charging process and let the starter battery rest with good ventilation for
about 30 minutes.
Do as follows to charge your Generators’s starter battery through external battery
charging:
