Checking the Battery
Always check battery energy before
every lift.
Use the battery gauge to determine whether the battery needs to be charged (see
).
1
Never use the lifter unless battery energy appears in the green range.
• While the valve handle is in the “attach” position (
/ power on), the battery gauge
automatically shows battery energy.
2
• While the valve handle is in the
“release” position (
/ power off),
use the battery test button (circled)
to check the battery energy.

1..... If the pump is running or the battery charger is connected to an AC power source, the reading on the battery gauge will not be accurate.
2..... After the vacuum pump stops running, the battery gauge requires a few moments to stabilize before it shows an accurate energy level.
3..... If the lifter has not been used since the battery was charged, the battery gauge may falsely show a high energy level. This “surface charge”
dissipates after the pump runs for about 1 minute, allowing the gauge to show accurate energy.
