INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
to be carefully read before using the apparatus
Do not dispose of electric equipment together with household waste mate-
rial! In observance of European Directive 2012/19/EC on waste electrical
and electronic equipment and its implementation in accordance with
national law, electric equipment that have reached the end of their life must be
collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling
facility. For further information on the disposal of this product, contact your dealer
or a domestic waste collection service.
1 SAFETY RULES
1.1 This battery charger must only be used for keeping
charged12 Volt lead/acid batteries, either sealed (acid level main-
tenance free) or traditional, with a maximum capacity of 24 Ah. In
exceptional cases, it can also be used for emergency charging.
1.2 Connect the battery charger to a power outlet which has the
same voltage and frequency as that shown on the plate. The
socket used must be efficient and safe.
1.3 If extension cables are used, these must have plugs comply-
ing with laws. Place the battery charger in a stable, dry and clean
location, and prevent both the battery charger and the cable from
coming into contact with water or dirt.
1.4 Carry out the recharging operation at ambient temperature
between 0° and 38°C, strictly complying with the recommen-
dations shown in the instructions for using the battery and the
machine in which it is fitted.
1.5 Do not use the battery charger if damaged, or in case of dubt
about its efficiency after being knocked or a fall.
1.6 Do not dismantle the battery charger or alter its character-
istics.
2. SUPPLY
2.1 The battery charger (1) comes with:
– a two-core cable with a connector (2) for connecting to the wir-
ing of machines that include this possibility;
– a two-pole wire (3) with serrated-edge grips.
3. CHARACTERISTICS AND METHODS FOR USE
3.1 The battery charger has been specifically developed to keep
up sealed batteries, maintaining the charge during periods of
inactivity. Used regularly, it will assure longer life and efficiency
to the battery, preventing it from being damaged by deep dis-
charging over extended periods.
By way of exception, it can also restore flat batteries to a reason-
able charge level.
3.2 When it is connected, the battery charger supplies current
at a constant 14.7 Volts. After 46-48 hours, a built-in timer will
switch the voltage from 14.7 to 13.6 V which will assure the main-
tenance of the charge until such time as the battery charger is
disconnected.
3.3 If the machine is only occasionally used, the battery can be
charged before and after each use, or otherwise it can even be
left charging for some months between one use and another.
4. USE

4.1 If the battery is not removed from the machine, make sure
that the key on the control panel is in the "OFF" position. Connect
the battery charger to the mains power supply and then attach the
connector (2):
– t o the corresponding connector of the machine's wiring (if fit-
ted)
– or otherwise to the wire (3) with the serrated-edge grips,
attaching these to the terminals of the battery in the following
sequence:
1 - first the red grip to the positive terminal (+)
2 - and then the black grip to the negative terminal (–).
4.2 The LED lights (4 – 5 – 6) show the type of functioning:
4 – Green = Battery charger live
5 – Yellow = Charging at 14.7 Volts
6 – Yellow = Maintenance charge at 13.6 Volts
Whether they are lit ( ) or off ( ) signals:
– normal condition:
48 hours after being
connected
– particular conditions:
if, after a few
minutes it becomes
...
on being
connected
for about
30 seconds
continuous
4.3 The battery charger has a thermal protection device against
overcharging, also protecting from short circuits and reversal of
terminals. In addition, if unconnected to the battery, the connector
or the grips will not be live.
If the thermal protection has cut in, the power supply is stopped,
restarting automatically after about 30 seconds. An increase in
temperature both when recharging and when maintaining the
charge is a normal operating condition.
4.4 To disconnect the battery charger, reverse the order of the
operations given at point 4.1.
After use, do not leave the battery charger disconnected from the
mains supply and connected to the battery to prevent the battery
from discharging.
5. TECHNICAL DATA
• Voltage and frequency of the power supply: 100-240V ac (± 6%)
/ 50/60 Hz. • Output voltage: 14.7 V dc (charging) / 13.6 V dc
(maintenance). • Max output current: 1.0 A.
– normal charging of a partially
dis-charg-ed battery.
– the battery is on maintenance charge.
– t he battery has already been suffi c ient l y
charged before the 48 hours
– possible inversion of terminals in
connecting the grips;
– the battery is in a deep discharge
condition and is being slowly
regenerated. The true charging takes
place when the LED (5) lights up after a
few hours.
– t he battery is insufficiently recharged
in the 48 hours and requires a second
charging cycle by disconnecting and
re-connecting after 5 seconds the battery
charger to the mains power supply. When
another 24 hours have passed, if the
LED (5) does not go out it means that the
battery is damaged beyond repair and
cannot take the recharge.
– the thermal protection device has cut in.
– no power being supplied or battery
charger faulty.
