Height Rider/SP Series
Operating & Safety Instructions
BATTERY MANAGEMENT: - Battery condition is permanently monitored by the control circuit, such
that when available power has decreased to 20% of full charge, the battery status circuit begins to
"chop" the power to the hydraulic motors (If the machine is in Diesel mode at this point, it will
automatically revert to a 'low power' state to protect the batteries). This function causes the drive
system to stop & start alternately, signalling to the operator that re-charging is necessary. At the same
time the sounder will begin to sound intermittently and the low battery warning light will illuminate,
reinforcing the charge warning. At this point, sufficient power remains to allow driving to the nearest
power point. Should the operator ignore the on-set of the discharge warning, the "chopping" will
continue until the machine is rendered inoperative. Immediate charging will then be required.
Note; During normal machine usage with the engine running, the batteries are on continuous recharge
The exception to this is when the control system decides that additional electric power is required in
order to maintain drive/function speed. If the operator is using electric power only and a low battery
warning has activated, it is advisable to start the engine, enabling continued use of the machine, whilst
at the same time recharging the batteries.
BATTERY ISOLATOR: - The battery-disconnect handles are located under the links, adjacent to the
service canopy. In order to isolate the machine control and power circuits from the batteries it is
necessary to pull the release handles, disconnecting the supply to the entire control system. Under
normal operation, the machine key switch should be used to isolate the machine, with the battery
isolator handle only being required for emergencies, in the event of a short circuit, or during routine
maintenance.
BOOMS ENABLE VALVE: - Situated behind the Ground Control Station, this valve contains the ON/OFF
solenoid and PRV for the boom controls.
