Batteries

Flooded (wet) and maintenance free sealed lead–acid batteries

The lifetime of the batteries depends on their proper maintenance. To get the most life from the batteries;

• Do not charge the batteries more than once a day and only after running the machine for a minimum of 15 minutes.
• Do not leave the batteries partially discharged for long period of time.
• Only charge the batteries in a well-ventilated area to prevent gas build up. Charge batteries in areas with ambient temperatures 80°F (27°C) or less.
• Allow the charger to complete charging the batteries before re-using the machine.
• Maintain the proper electrolyte levels of flooded (wet) batteries by checking levels weekly.

Checking the electrolyte level

The flooded (wet) lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance as described below. Check the battery electrolyte level weekly.

Note:

Do Not check the electrolyte level if the machine is equipped with the battery watering system. Proceed to the BATTERY WATERING SYSTEM (OPTION).

The level should be slightly above the battery plates as shown before charging. Add distilled water if low. DO NOT OVERFILL. The electrolyte will expand and may overflow when charging. After charging, distilled water can be added up to about 0.12 in (3 mm) below the sight tubes.

Note: Make sure the battery caps are in place while charging. There may be a sulfur smell after charging batteries. This is normal.

Maintenance-free batteries

Maintenance-free batteries do not require watering. Cleaning and other routine maintenance is still required.

Checking connections / cleaning

After every 200 hours of use check for loose battery connections and clean the surface of the batteries, including terminals and cable clamps, with a strong solution of baking soda and water. Replace any worn or damaged wires. Do not remove battery caps when cleaning batteries‌‌​⁠⁠‍‍‌‍‌‍​‌⁠​‍‍‍​⁠​​​​‌​⁠​​​​‌​‍⁠⁠​‍‌​⁠‌‍‌‌‍‍⁠​⁠⁠⁠‌‍‌‍⁠‍‌​

The lithium-ion battery pack is a maintenance-free battery protected by a battery management system (BMS). To achieve the maximum battery life, carefully follow the instructions below:

• Carefully follow the Important Safety Instructions section in the manual when using the Lithium-ion Battery Model.
• Only use the lithium-ion battery charger supplied with machine.
• Charge battery pack in well-ventilated areas. For best charging performance, charge the battery pack in temperatures below 80°F (27°C) and above 32°F (0°C). Battery pack may shut down and not take a charge in elevated or freezing temperatures.
• If the red light begins to flash, the scrub function will automatically be disabled. This allows the user to use the remaining power to propel the machine back to charging station.
• When the machine shuts down due to a depleted battery pack, do not repeatedly cycle the key on and off. This may cause permanent battery pack damage. Recharge battery pack immediately to avoid damage.
• To interrupt opportunity charging (i.e. partial charging cycle of a half hour or more) on machines serial number 0016063 and above, press the power button on the charger and ensure the current output displays 0A before unplugging the charge connector. Failure to pause charger before disconnecting battery can accelerate connector wear.
• Do not operate machines serial number 0016062 and below in temperatures above 110°F (43°C) or below -4°F (-20°C). Machine may shutdown if exceed these temperatures.
• Do not operate machines serial number 0016063 and above in temperatures above 104°F (40°C) or below 32°F (0°C). Machine may shutdown if exceed these temperatures.
• When removing or replacing the lithium-ion battery pack, use non-conductive lifting straps positioned at all four lift points with straps angled at 45° or greater when hoisting battery pack.
