Advice For Operation; After Operation; Battery Recharging And - Alpina AS 5148 Li Manuel D'utilisation

6.4 STOP
To stop the machine, release
the starter lever (fig. 8.B).
IMPORTANT If you have to leave
the machine, remove the battery.

6.5 ADVICE FOR OPERATION

• Snow is removed more easily when it
is still fresh. Pass back over the already
cleared zones to remove snow residue.
• If possible, clear the snow in the direction
of the wind. Check the distance and the
direction of the removed snow jet.
• In strong winds, lower the deflector to
direct the discharged snow towards the
ground, reducing the likelihood of the wind
transporting the snow to the wrong areas.
• Once you have finished work, leave the
machine running for a few minutes to prevent
ice from forming in the discharge chute.
6.5.1 Dry and normal snow
Snow up to 20 cm can be quickly removed
by proceeding to evenly clear it away. For
deeper or built up snow, reduce the speed
and let the machine work at its own rhythm.
6.5.2 Wet or compact snow
Slowly move forward. Avoid using the lower
blade to remove compact snow and ice.
IMPORTANT Heavy use of the machine
with wet or compact snow can cause
faults to the auger compartment.

6.6 AFTER OPERATION

• Immediately remove the battery
from its compartment.
• Clean the remaining snow on the
machine with a brush (par. 8.2).
• Move all the controls forward
and back a few times.
• Tighten any nuts and bolts that are
loosened during operation.
• Check there are no loose or damaged
components. If necessary, replace
the damaged components.
Do not cover the machine
when the motor is still warm.
7. BATTERY RECHARGING
AND MANAGEMENT
• The battery must be stored in places
with temperatures between 7°C and
40°C. If the machine is stored in places
that could exceed these threshold, it is
recommended to remove the battery and
store it in a more suitable location.
• During use, the battery is protected
against total drainage with a protective
device that switches off the machine
and stops it from working.
• The battery is equipped with a guard that
inhibits recharging if the environmental
temperature is not between 0 and +45 °C.
• The battery can be recharged at any time,
even partially, with no risk of damaging it.
Check the battery charge status
To check the condition of the battery
charge status, press the small button
(fig. 11.A) which activates four LED lights
(fig.11.B) which indicate the following:
LED
4 GREEN 100%
3 GREEN 70%
2 GREEN 45%
1 GREEN 10% - Recharge needed
None The battery has less than 10%
power reserve and needs
recharging immediately.
If at least one LED does not come on
after 30 minutes charging, the battery
is faulty and needs replacing.
Battery charging lasts from 1.5 - 3.5
hours, depending on the battery
capacity and its residual charge.
The battery charger (5) is the diagnostic
type fitted with a LED that provides
information on the battery and charge
status, based on the following chart:
