Forklift

Keeping our Forklift happy and ready to roll

Weekly checklist and maintainance

• Charging the Battery

Let the charge get down to or below 20%, then charge. Deep discharge before charging will prolong battery life & prevent "memory" problems.

How does the charger work? = There is no "ON" switch, just plug it into the battery, & wait about 5 seconds, you'll hear the hum. It will stop by itself.

There is a "STOP" switch if we wanna stop the charge for any reason.

• Equalizing

Once a week "EQUALIZE" with the normal charge by pushing the equalize button on the charger. We try not to do this longer than overnight, overcharging can occur.

• Water

Check the water level in each cell AFTER charging, & after the water has cooled a bit - like the morning after the charge. Adding tap water - with all its minerals & junk - will shorten battery life.

To charge the battery

1. shut down the forklift completely
2. open up and fold back the seat lid over the battery
3. unplug the huge cable from the forklift and plug it into the charger
4. wait 5 seconds, you'll hear a hum when charger is working
5. the charger will shut down by it self, reconnect big cable to battery, and fold down the seat. Please make sure the cable doesn't get pinched on the left side of the seat.

Note: charging the battery produces hydrogen gas bubbles coming out of the battery. DO NOT smoke near the battery when the seat lid is up, especially not while charging is going on.
