2. If the batteries are supplied without acid
solution, they must be filled up with a sulphuric
acid solution (specific gravity not less than 1,270 at
77˚F) according to the instructions of the next
paragraph.
3 . If the machine is supplied without batteries, they
have to be provided and assembled. It is
recommended to use the service of qualified
personnel to choose and assemble the batteries.

FILLING THE BATTERIES WITH ACID SOLUTION

and the (-) poles of the batteries.
Connect a cable to one pole and cover it with the
special insulator, then connect another cable and
insulate it, and continue this procedure.
Once assembled, the batteries must be recharged to
give them the rated Volt and Ampere values.
Recharge them using a suitable battery charger.
(Fig. 8)
RECHARGING BATTERIES
The recharge must be done in a well ventilated
area.
During the recharge the battery caps must be open.
Make sure that the voltage and the frequency
