Hawker Freedom Instructions

Instructions for use Hawker freedom system
The Hawker freedom system integrates a battery with airmixing system, an on-board electronic device, the easyplus, for
checking temperature, electrolyte level and voltage balance, and for recording data on capacity and battery, this permitting
the communication with the HF charger, a Powertech easy.com charger (for instructions concerning the charger, please read
specific manual)

• Pay attention to the operation instruction and
fix them close to the battery.
• Work on batteries to be carried out by skilled
personnel only!
• Use protective glasses and clothes when
working on batteries. Pay attention to the
accident prevention rules as well as
EN 50272-3 and EN 50110-1.
• No smoking!
• Do not expose batteries to naked flames,
glowing embers or sparks, as it may cause
the battery to explode.
• Acid splashes in the eyes or on the skin must
be washed with water. In case of accident
consult a doctor immediately!
• Clothing contaminated by acid should be
washed in water.
Ignoring the operation instructions, repair with non-original parts or using additives for the electrolyte will render
the warranty void.
1. Commissioning filled and charged batteries
(For commissioning of unfilled batteries see separate
instructions!)
The battery should be inspected to ensure it is in perfect
physical condition.
The charger cables must be connected to ensure a good
contact, taking care that the polarity is correct. Otherwise
battery, vehicle or charger could be damaged. The specified
torque loading for the polscrews of the charger cables and
connectors are:
M 10 perfect connector
LED
Off
Green LED flashing (slowly)
Fixed green LED
Fixed red LED
Red LED flashing
Blue LED flashing (slowiy)
Blue LED flashing
Blue LED ON
The level of the electrolyte must be checked. If it is below
the anti-surge baffle or the top of the separator it must first
be topped up to this height with distilled or demineralised
water (DIN 43530 part 4).
The battery is then charged as in item 2.2. The electrolyte
should be topped up to the specified level with distilled or
demineralised water.
2. Operation
EN 50272-3 "Traction batteries for industrial trucks" is the
standard which applies to the operation traction batteries
steel
in industrial trucks.
In normal working condition, the green LED on easyplus
25 ± 2 Nm
must be ON, with fixed or flashing light.

• Risk of explosion and fire, avoid short circuits!
• Caution: Metal parts of the battery are always
live. Do not place tools or other metal objects
on the battery!
• Electrolyte is highly corrosive.
• Batteries and cells are heavy. Ensure secure
installation!
• Use only suitable handling equipment
• Dangerous electrical voltage!
• Pay attention to the hazards that can be
caused by batteries
