BEFORE USE
HANDLING OF THE PACKED MACHINE
The machine is supplied with suitable packing foreseen for fork lift
truck handling.
BD 28/20: the total weight is 363 kg (800 lbs.).
Packing dimensions:
Base: 161 cm x 87 cm (63"x 34")
Height: 123 cm (48")
Do not place more than 2 packages on top of each other.
UNPACKING OF THE MACHINE
1. Remove the external packing.
2. Unscrew the brackets (1) that secure the machine to the pallet.
3. Provide for an inclined base.
4. Move the machine backwards, as indicated in the figure, avoiding
heavy contacts to mechanical parts.
5. Keep the pallet and the brackets for future transport.
ACCESS TO THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT
To reach the battery compartment, first of all make sure that the
recovery tank (1) is empty by opening the cover (2).
If the tank is full, proceed as indicated under "RECOVERY TANK
CLEANING", otherwise take off the squeegee hose (3) and lift the
tank.
Thanks to a blocking system of 2 levels, the machine allows the
battery charging with a partial tank opening.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
The machine is equipped either with batteries in serial connection
or elements of DIN-type assembled together and connected in
series, placed in its appropriate compartment under the recovery
tank and must be handled using suitable lifting equipment (due
to weight, considering the type of batteries chosen, and coupling
system).
The batteries must be in accordance with CEI 21-5 Norms.
The machine is originally set for the use of standard traditional lead/
acid batteries.
CHECK SETTING ON THE INDICATOR (see under paragraph
"BATTERIES CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR").
In case of GEL or AGM batteries installation, it is necessary TO
MODIFY THE SETTING (see under "TO CHANGE THE BATTERY
SETTINGS").
Strictly follow manufacturer/distributor indications for the main-
tenance and recharge of the batteries. All installation and main-
tenance operations must be executed by specialized staff, using
suitable protection accessories.
BATTERY CHARGER
Be sure that the battery recharger is suitable for the installed batter-
ies both for their capacities and type (lead/acid or GEL or AGM).
In the plastic bag containing the use and maintenance you will find
the coupling connector for the recharger. It must be assembled onto
the cables of your recharger, following the instructions given by the
manufacturer.
ON-BOARD BATTERY RECHARGER (OPTIONAL)
If the machine is equipped with the on-board battery recharger (see
under "OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES") please refer to the manufac-
tures instructions on the use of the charger. The battery recharger
is connected directly to the battery poles. During the recharging
operations a device is activated which does not permit the ma-
chine's functioning. The main cable of the battery recharger has a
maximum length of two meters and must be connected to a single-
phase socket type CEE 7/7.
