1. If both battery(s) and AC are connected, the battery(s) will begin charging
after 15 minutes of idle time.
2. Indicator lights will show charge state during charging (See insert). Charging
should complete in about 4 hours, with the Indicator lights turning green.
Should the Speed control be turned on during the charge, charging will stop
and the fan will start. Charging will begin again after 15 min of idle time.
3. After charging is complete, the chargers will maintain the battery(s) by
keeping the blower connected to AC.
4. In service storage. Keep batteries topped by keeping blower connected
to AC. Battery charge lights will go out as the controller and batteries are
programmed to reduce leakage to a bare minimum. Use wake up button to
check charge state.

Battery
1. RAMFAN R2-360-AH-U lithium-ion battery packs are rated 40v 6Ah. The cells
are Samsung 18650 rated 3Ah.
2. Factors affecting Performance and Cycle life.
•
Battery packs will last significantly longer when run in pairs; there will be a
lower amp draw on each cell.
•
The number of discharge/charge cycles depends on how far down batteries
are discharged; called the depth of discharge (DoD). Two battery packs with
an average runtime of 20 minutes (50% DoD) or less will last significantly
longer than two battery packs with an average runtime of 40 minutes
(100% DoD).
•
As delivered, two new battery packs can power the blower for about 46
minutes. This decreases as the cycles pileup as shown in the table. Battery(s)
will need to be replaced as they age.
•
Keep the blower attached to AC while not being used. This will keep them
charged and lengthen their service life. An idle battery will slowly lose charge
and possibly become unusable.
•
The number of discharge/charge cycles depends on Depth of discharge.
Depth of discharge is the average capacity used per discharge. For example, 2
batteries with a 40 min capacity used for 20 minutes on average will be a 50%
Depth of discharge (DoD). 1 blonger.

* Estimate only. Battery packs lose capacity as they are used. This number represents the number of cycles,
after which the battery capacity has reduced to 60-70% of starting capacity, commonly time to replace. If
battery capacity reaches less than what the user requires replace with new.

Owner's Guide
•
DO NOT disassemble blower for maintenance reasons.
•
Do not loosen screws on control box without contacting Euramco customer
service. They are torqued to a setting to achieve water tightness.
•
Clean fan periodically to remove accumulated dust or particles from fan
guards, impeller blade and heats ink in rear of controller (ribbed).
Use only biodegradable detergents. If power washing, avoid controller
housing especially gaskets and control panel.
•
Contact factory for replacement parts and installation instructions.
•
Properly dispose of battery packs when necessary. Contact your local
hazardous materials on e-waste collection department for details or proper
disposal of lithium-ion batteries.
