Charging; Transportation; Storage - ActSafe T1-16 Manuel Utilisateur

USAGE

Charging

Charging can be done no matter whether
the ascender is switched on/off.
1. Remove the watertight cap from the
connector.
2. Check that the charger is switched off
and not connected to the mains supply.
3. Position the red dot on the cable
connector up and gently connect.
4. Use the metal arm to rotate the inner
ring clockwise to the locked position.
5. Connect the charger to the main supply
6. Switch the charger on. An LED will
start to flash on the winch to indicate
charging.

Transportation

For short transports, carry the ascender by
the lifting handle/buoyancy aid.
During normal transport the transporta-
tion box is optimal as it protects the ascen-
der from damage. Always make sure the
Ascender is secured before being transpor-
ted in a vehicle.
Transportation in non-pressurized
cargo area
If transported at heights above 2,500 m,
open up the Schrader valve during the
transport so as not to risk damage due to
the low pressure. The transportation box
can be closed.

CAUTION
Failure to disconnect the charger from the asc-
ender when the charger is disconnected from
the mains supply will slowly drain the battery
to a level where charging is no more possible.
7. When all LEDs have stopped flashing the
battery is fully charged. Switch the charger
off and disconnect it from the main supply.
8. Disconnect the charger from the ascender.
9. Replace the watertight cap.

Storage

Always clean and dry the ascender and the
transportation box before putting it away
for storage. Store the ascender and the
remote in a cool, dark and dry place. It can
be stored in the transportation box, make
sure it is dry.
CAUTION
BATTERY STORAGE
Lithium-ion batteries can hold a charge for
many months. However, it is best to store a
lithium-ion battery with a partial charge.
Occasionally, a lithium-ion battery with a
very low charge stored for a long period of
time (many months) its voltage slowly drops
to below the level at which it's built in safety
electronics allows it to be charged again.
If the battery is going to be stored for several
months it's a good idea to charge the battery
every 2 months.
RECOMMENDATION
Use the transportation box to extend the
service life of the ascender.
If the box is hard to open after transport, use the
vent on the side of the box to let air into the box.
