BATTERY INFORMATION

Keep Batteries at Room Temperature: Store between 32 and 113 degrees F (0°C to 45°C). Avoid battery exposure to extreme temperatures. If shelving battery longer than (1) month, deplete battery to 50% charge during storage period (two bars on the battery indicator).

Batteries Lose Capacity Over Time: Batteries naturally deteriorate over time whether being used or not. If battery use instructions are properly followed, batteries deteriorate at a rate of approximately 10% run time per year but may vary by patterns of use.

Fully Discharge vs. Partial Discharge and the Effect on Battery Cycles: Unlike lead acid batteries, the Lithium-ion battery used with Kaivac equipment is not damaged by full or partial discharging. The expected battery hours of use are approximately 600 hours and 400 charge cycles. If you discharge battery only to 80%, then the user can expect to get more cycles (500 cycles). With dual batteries make sure to alternate batteries per charge in order to maximize for life capacity.

Extended Storage: It is recommended to discharge to 50% capacity (two bars on the battery indicator) and store in a cool location (between 32°F to 113°F or 0°C to 45°C). To avoid battery impact, store battery laying down on its side on lowest shelf, and secured. If battery is dropped or experiences an impact or damage, discontinue use and replace. Never use a damaged battery, as a damaged battery may act in an unpredictable manner resulting in fire, explosion, property damage, or personal injury.

Battery Gauge: The Kaivac provided battery comes with a built-in Battery Gauge or which shows the approximate run time for the current charge remaining.

Replacement - End of Life: Rechargeable batteries eventually wear out. When your Kaivac Battery run time is less than 55% (i.e. 50 minutes for non-quick change and 33 minutes for Quick Change batteries), Kaivac recommends replacing your battery. Regardless of run time, contact Kaivac to replace your battery after 4 years. Consult kaivac.com for information on recycling your old battery through a licensed disposal facility.

GROUNDING INFORMATION

Grounding: Corded Units

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION (for spray systems only)‌‌​⁠​‌​⁠⁠​‍​⁠‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠​​​​​​​‌⁠​​​‌​⁠​​​​‍‍​‍‍​‌​‌​⁠⁠⁠‍‍‍​⁠⁠⁠⁠‌

If your unit is a corded unit, it has been supplied with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter(GFCI) built into the plug of the power-supply cord. This GFCI device provides additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of the plug or cord become necessary, use only identical replacement parts that include GFCI protection.

If your unit is a corded unit, it is for use on a nominal circuit and has a grounding attachment plug. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this unit.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

If your unit is a corded unit, it must be grounded. If the unit should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This unit is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local electrical codes and ordinances.

This unit comes with a grounded attachable extension cord. If damaged, replace with Kaivac® (OEM) cord, or if necessary an equivalent cord rated 120V, 15 amps, 3-wire, 14 GA. This cord must be attached and mechanically secured using the provided cord connector to use the unit.

Grounding: Battery Units

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

The charger must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This unit is equipped with a cord having equipment grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

This unit is for use on a nominal circuit and has a grounding attachment plug. Make sure that the unit is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this unit.

GROUNDING INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is the correct size for your unit. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.‌‌​⁠​‌​⁠⁠​‍​⁠‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠​​​​​​​‍​​​​‌​⁠​​⁠‍‍⁠​‍​‍⁠‌​‌‍‌‍⁠​​‌‌⁠⁠​‍

Use only three-wire outdoor extension cords that have three-prong grounding receptacles that accept the unit's plug.
