BATTERY MAINTENANCE
NOTE:
This information applies to wet cell batteries only. Do not
attempt to open a maintenance-free sealed battery.
Battery fluid level should be approximately 1/8 in. (3mm)
below vent tubes. (See Illustration).
Keep cable connections clean and free of corrosion.
BATTERY ACID IS HIGHLY CORROSIVE. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN AND CLOTH-
ING AT ALL TIMES.
BATTERY ACID RELEASES AN EXPLOSIVE GAS WHILE CHARGING, ALLOW NO
OPEN FLAMES, SPARKS OR LIGHTED TOBACCO PRODUCTS IN THE AREA WHILE
CHARGING BATTERIES. CHARGE BATTERIES ONLY IN A WELL VENTILATED
AREA.
ADD ONLY DISTILLED WATER TO BATTERIES. WHEN ADDING DISTILLED WATER
TO THE BATTERIES, A NON-METALLIC CONTAINER AND/OR FUNNEL MUST BE
USED.
1.10 HYDRAULIC PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
Adjust system pressure so that platform will raise with rated
capacity in platform.
Turning adjustment screw clockwise, increases system pres-
sure, turning screw counterclockwise, decreases system pres-
sure.
Do not adjust system pressure higher than required to raise
the load. Make pressure adjustment with oil at normal operat-
ing temperature. If pressure is set when oil is cold, platform
may not raise rated load after oil has warmed.
