Battery maintenance
Keep the battery dry and clean. Pay particular attention to the terminals and terminal bolts etc..About once a week (depending on how
much the sweeper is used), remove a few of the battery caps and check the level of the electrolyte. Top up with distilled water if necessary.
Periodically check the effi ciency of the battery charger.
Make sure that the area in which the battery is charged is well ventilated and repaired, keep the cover open.
Keep naked fl ames or lit cigarettes well away from the battery, especially while it is being charged.
Never let batteries completely exhausted: when the machine is not used regularly the battery must be recharged at least every 30 days.
Danger!
The fl uid is corrosive. The battery gases can cause explosions. Avoid short-circuits. Never reverse
poles.
Autonomy
The sweeper has a working autonomy of about 2 hours.
Perform the following checks if autonomy drops below the specifi ed value:
1) Check that the brushes are not pressing too much on the fl oor;
2) Check that there is no string or wire, etc., entangled in or around the main brush which might cause friction and increase power
consumption;
3) Check that the battery is fully charged when you start work.
