12- BATTERY
The battery (12 V–7.2 Ah) included in the supply is sealed and without maintenance.
In order to lengthen the battery life it is necessary though to follow a few
recommendations:
When the tension drops below 12.6V it is necessary to recharge the battery.
Max. allowed recharging current is 1.8A.
The ideal recharge is achieved with an average charging current of 0.8 ÷ 1 A.
(recharging time of appr. 10 h.) and at an ambient temperature between 0° and
40°C.
ATTENTION:
An overcharge or an extremely quick charge with excessive current could
damage the battery (the battery would tend to swell).
Choose a battery charger with the following characteristics:
Feed Tension: 90/250 Vac – 50/60 Hz
Outlet Tension: 15 V full charge – 13.8 stand-by
Max outlet current: 2A full charge
During transportation or storage, the battery could loose its charge due to self
discharge (0.1% max per day).
Fully recharge battery before use.
ATTENTION:
Always connect the - (negative) terminal before and the + (positive) terminal
after. Always disconnect the battery in opposite order.
Recharge the battery at least once every 6 months.
Never put the battery in contact with solvents, gasolines, oils, plastifiers or rags
containing such elements. The external case of the battery could be damaged.
Never press or bend or overheat (by welding) the battery terminals.
Other recommendations
Pay attention not to have free fires upon or around the battery.
Never shortcircuit the terminals.
Never open the battery or throw it in the fire.
In case the electrolite (diluted Sulfuric acid) gets in contact with skin or clotches,
immediately wash with water. In case it gets in touch with eyes, wash and apply for
medical assistance.
Carefully check the external case of battery and replace in case of breakages,
swellings of the case or of battery cover.
Before use, clean the battery from dust and check that the terminals are not
oxidyzed or damaged.
When the battery comes to an end never throw it in the garbage but deliver it to an
authorized disposer.
