3-3.2. Safety Rules
• Do not lay metallic or conductive objects on battery.
Arcing will result.
• Do not touch non-insulated parts of DC output con-
nector or battery terminals to avoid possible electri-
cal shock.
• Do not charge a frozen battery.
3-3.3. Battery Care and Charging
1.
Charge the battery only in areas designated for
that use.
2.
Battery terminals should be checked and cleaned
of corrosion regularly. Good battery terminal con-
tact is essential not only for operation, but also for
proper charging of the battery.
3.
The charging requirements will vary depending on
the use of the truck.
4.
Make certain battery used meets weight and size
requirements of truck. NEVER operate truck with
an undersized battery.
3-4. CHARGING BATTERIES
3-4.1. Battery Charger Indicators
The battery charger is fully automatic.
The LED indicator on the dashboard indicate battery
charging status. Red indicates charging in progress.
Yellow indicates charging error, for example charger
not plugged in correctly. Green indicates that the bat-
tery is fully charged.
3-4.2. Charging
Charging requirements will vary depending on depth of
discharge and temperature. Follow safety rules when
placing a battery on charge.
Proceed as follows:
1.
Park truck at charging station with carriage low-
ered and the truck turned off.

2.
Check the condition of the AC cord and battery
cables. If there are any cuts in the cable, any
exposed wires, loose plugs or connectors, DO
NOT attempt to charge the batteries. Contact
appropriate personnel for repairs to be made.
3.
Connect the charger AC cord to the appropriate
power supply.

3-5. LUBRICATION.
Refer to
Table 3-2
for the recommended types of
grease and oil.
Table 3-3
identifies the items requiring lubrication.
3-6. LIFT CHAIN MAINTENANCE.

pivoting freely. With lift carriage fully lowered, spray or
brush on a film of SAE 30 or 40 engine oil.
Table 3-2 Recommended Lubricants
(See
Table 3-3
No. 1
