batteries completely discharged, even if the machine is not being used.

Check the electrolyte level at least every 20 times the batteries are charged.  Add only
distilled water if the level is low.

WARNING! When charging the batteries, follow all the instructions
provided with this manual and the battery charger.  Trained staff must carry
out the installation and maintenance operations.

an explosion.  Keep sparks and flames away from batteries.  NO SMOKING!

WARNING! To prevent an explosion, charge the batteries only in an area
with good ventilation.

working near batteries.

When charging the batteries, keep the recovery tank lifted with the prop as shown in

Turn the key to the OFF position.  Connect the DC connector on the charger to the

correct voltage and frequency for your charger.  Make sure the receptacle is
connected to the electrical ground.
