9.4.16Notes regarding the battery

Replacing a battery due to old age
With 12 volt battery blocks, the complete battery set
must be replaced in case of damage.
Taking out of operation
If batteries are not to be used for a while, the following
must be observed when storing them:
Disconnect the negative battery connection on the
–
battery and store the cable so that it cannot inad-
vertently come into contact with the negative ter-
minal of the battery.
Only store batteries while charged.
–
The storage location should be cool (the self-dis-
–
charge rates will be lower).
Recharge once the battery capacity is lower than
–
60%.
Discharge end voltage or total discharge protec-
tion
The settings of the discharge end voltage must be
checked to ensure that the runtime of the machine is
not limited and that the battery cannot deeply dis-
charge.
