• Turn off the truck and perform the prelimi-
nary maintenance operations.
• Raise the battery compartment hood (1).
• Disconnect the plug (2) from the outlet (3).
• Insert the sling hooks in the two battery
points (4). The entire sling must be suitably
sized for the weight of the battery.
• Lift the battery using a hoist suitably sized
for the weight of the battery.
• Change the battery and refit it by following
the above steps in the reverse order.
CAUTION
To decide which type of battery to use, check the
battery characteristics provided in the "TECHNI-
CAL DATA" chapter.
DANGER
Use a crane with a suitable lifting capacity for
the weight of the battery. Lifting operations must
be performed by qualified personnel. DO NOT
stand within the crane’s radius of action or near
the truck. Do not stand in the danger area beneath
suspended loads. Use NON-METALLIC slings.
Make sure that the lifting capacity of the slings is
suitable for the weight of the battery. The rope
slings must be pulled vertically. To prevent short
circuits, it is recommended that batteries with polar
terminals or unprotected connections be covered
with a rubber mat.
