CHARGERS

The work platform on-board electronic charger is
designed to automatically charge 24 V DC lead-acid
rechargeable batteries.
Several types of chargers can be fitted on the machine
depending on the capacity of the battery.
The covers of the machine must be open during
battery charge.
LEAD-ACID BATTERIES MAY EMIT HIGHLY EXPLOSIVE GASES.
THE EMISSION IS GREATLY INCREASED DURING CHARGING.
NEVER INTRODUCE FLAMES, SPARKS OR OTHER SOURCES OF
IGNITION TO BATTERY AREA. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS
WARNING COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR INJURY TO
PERSONNEL. ALWAYS CHARGE BATTERIES IN A WELL-
VENTILATED AREA.
DO NOT DISCONNECT BATTERY PLUG WHEN THE CHARGER IS
ON. THE RESULTING ARCING COULD CAUSE BATTERY TO
EXPLODE AND BURNS TO THE OPERATOR.
NOTE: It is not necessary to charge the battery if the
electrolyte specific gravity has not dropped under
1.240 kg/l. Regular charge of a battery when its
specific gravity is higher then 1.240 kg/l can greatly
reduce the battery life.
NOTE: The charger has an interlock feature which causes
the work platform power circuit to open anytime the
charger is plugged into a live AC outlet.
NOTE: If power supply is stopped during the charge cycle,
the charger switches to a waiting mode and restarts
automatically as soon as the power returns.
Supply Voltage :
Always ensure the voltage selected corresponds to the
network voltage and the socket protection is sufficient
to support the charger power.
Incorrect setting of the charger voltage may result in
malfunction or breakdown.
The chargers are factory preset based upon the plug
type fitted.

ZIVAN BC1 High Frequency Electronic Charger
Charging the battery :
- Plug the charger into the mains (single phase 2 poles
+ ground).
- The charger starts automatically.
Remote charge-phase indicator on emergency control
unit :
Red LED :
The charger is in the charge initial phase (phase 1).
Flashing Red LED :
At the end of this phase, the battery is 80% charged
(phase 2).
Red and Green fixed LED :
Battery between 80 and 100% charged.
Green LED :
Battery charge complete, the charging process stops.
Alarms :
A flashing LED and an intermittent acoustic alarm indi-
cate a faulty situation. When the alarm is on, the
charger does no longer deliver any current.
Troubleshooting :
TYPE OF ALARM
The charging phase 1 is lasting longer than the
Temporisation maximum authorised (check the capacity of the
battery. Contact JLG Product Support).
Loss of control of the output current (fault on
Battery current
control logic : Contact JLG Product Support).
Loss of control on output voltage (fault on control
Battery voltage
logic : Contact JLG Product Support).
Overheating of semi-conductors (check for proper
Thermal safety
operation of the fan).
