Charging batteries
Before starting the machine up
for the first time, the batteries
to be used must be fully
charged, properly, by
implementing the initial battery
charge routine. Hako assumes
no liability for damage to the
battery caused by a fault when
the battery is charged for the
first time.
During operation, the battery discharge
indicator in the operating panel
(Fig. 15/3) indicates the discharge
status of the batteries, refer to
paragraph 3.2.2, Section ”Battery
discharge status (Fig. 10/3)”. The
batteries must be charged immediately
the red LED lights up. The batteries
(Fig. 15/6) are recharged using the
integrated on-board charger (Fig. 15/2):
1. Set the key switch to Position 0.
The batteries cannot be
charged in Position 1.
2. Remove the charger cable
(Fig. 15/1) from the recess on the
right-hand side of the machine.

While the battery is charging, the
charge control indicator lights up in the
operating panel (Fig. 15/3), refer to

control indicator (Fig. 10/2)".
When the charging process
has been completed,
