This is a sealed single unit which does not require maintenance. It is
permanently lubricated and this lubricant does not need changing or
topping up.
6.2.3 Battery
To ensure long life to the battery, it is es-
sential to keep it carefully maintained.The
battery on your machine must be
charged before using for the first time
( 3.4).
During periods when it is not used,
the charge level can be kept con-
stant by using the maintenance
battery charger supplied. For this
purpose the machine is supplied
with a connector (1) to be con-
nected to the corresponding bat-
tery charger connector.
IMPORTANT No device other than the battery charger is to be
connected to this connector.
IMPORTANT The charge must be maintained with the battery
charger, following the instructions given in the instruction booklet.
Other recharging systems may definitively damage the battery.
A low battery must be recharged as soon as possible. Otherwise, ir-
reparable damage could be done to the battery's elements.
Periodically check the electrolyte level. When topping off, use ONLY
distilled water for batteries.
