After the battery has been connected to the charger,
you can connect the charger to a socket supplying
220-240V~50Hz. Do not connect it to a socket that
supplies any other mains voltage. Important.
Charging may create dangerous explosive gas and
therefore you should avoid spark formation and
naked flames whilst the battery is charging. There is a
risk of explosion!
Calculating the charging time
The charging time depends on the charge status of
the battery. If the battery is fully discharged, the
approximate charging time can be calculated using
the following formula:
Battery capacity in Ah
Charging time/h =
Amp. (arithmetic charging current)
24 Ah
Example = = 9.6 h max.
2.5 A

A high charge can only be identified by measuring the
acid density using an acid tester. Note! Gases are
released during the charging process (bubbles will
form on the surface of the battery fluid). It is essential
that you ventilate the rooms well.

First disconnect the black charging cable from the
bodywork.

Then release the red charging cable from the positive
pole on the battery.

Screw or push the battery stoppers back into position
(if there are any).
Overload cut-out
The charger is equipped with electronic protection
against overload, short circuit and polarity reversal.
If the pole terminals are wrongly connected, the
equipment will not work.

7. Replacing the power cable

If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-
sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid
danger.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering
of spare parts
Always pull out the mains power plug before starting
any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the housing
free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the
equipment with a clean cloth or blow it down with
compressed air at low pressure.
We recommend that you clean the equipment
immediately after you use it.
Clean the equipment regularly with a damp cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these may be aggressive to the
plastic parts in the equipment. Ensure that no
water can get into the interior of the equipment.
The charger should be placed in a dry room for
storage. Any corrosion must be cleaned off the
charging terminals.
8.2 Servicing
There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
8.3 Maintenance and care of the battery
Ensure that your battery is always fitted securely.
A perfect connection to the cable network of the
electrical system must be ensured at all times.
Keep the battery clean and dry. Apply a thin
coating of grease to the connection terminals
using an acid-free, acid-resistant grease
(Vaseline).
Check the level of the acid in batteries that are
not maintenance-free versions approximately
every 4 weeks and top up with distilled water if
necessary.
