Slide the four support beams included
in the packaging under the ramp.
Remove the wooden blocks for locking
the wheels.
DANGER
Risk of accident, risk of injury!
It is prohibited to release the emergen-
cy brake on an incline without using the
stopper.
Before releasing the immobilizing
brake, the machine must be secured to
prevent it rolling away. If the device is
not secured, it will roll with a speed of
approx. 4.5 km/h after releasing the
parking brake until the electronics
brakes the device.
Release emergency brake:
Illustration is symbolic, here KM 105/...
Remove the brake level from the wheel
and put it in its position.
The immobilizing brake is thus deacti-
vated; the machine can now be moved.
Slide the machine over the prepared
ramp from the pallet.
Connect the battery, refer to Chapter
"Connecting and installing the battery".
Insert KIK-key and main switch to posi-
tion 1/ON.
Turn the programme selector switch to
position C (drive).
Press the drive direction switch and
slowly move the machine down from
the ramp.
Turn the programme selector switch to
position A (OFF).
Upon delivery the side brush is not in-
stalled, install side brush prior to commis-
sioning.
Refer to Chapter "Care and mainte-
nance/replacing the side brush".
ATTENTION
Using non-rechargeable batteries is prohib-
ited.
Only use batteries and chargers approved
by the manufacturer.
Replace batteries with the same battery
type only.
Prior to disposal of the vehicle, the batter-
ies must be removed and disposed of in ac-
cordance with local regulations.
Follow accident prevention regulations as
well as DIN VDE 0510, VDE 0105 T.1.
Please observe the following warning notes
when handling batteries:
DANGER
Risk of fire and explosion!
Do not place tools or similar items on
the battery. Risk of short-circuit and ex-
plosion.
Smoking and open flames must be
strictly avoided.
Rooms where batteries are charged
must have good ventilation because
highly explosive gas is emitted during
charging.
Danger of causticization!
Use caution with leaking batteries (sul-
phuric acid may leak).
Risk of injury!
Ensure that wounds never come into
contact with lead. Always clean your
hands after working on batteries.
When used normally, and when observing
the instructions, lead-acid batteries do not
pose any risk.
However, keep in mind that lead-acid bat-
teries contain sulphuric acid which can
cause chemical burns and corrosion.
If there is spillage or, if the battery is
leaking, acid is escaping, lay down a
binding agent such as sand. Do not let
it reach the sewer system, soil or a body
of water.
Neutralise the acid with lime/baking
soda and dispose of it according to local
regulations.
Contact a waste management compa-
ny to dispose of faulty batteries.
Rinse thoroughly with lots of clear water
if acid gets into the eye or comes in con-
tact with the skin.
Then consult a doctor immediately.
Wash off the acid If it comes in contact
with the clothes.
Change clothing.
Warning
Regularly check the fluid level in acid-filled
batteries.
The acid in a fully charged battery has a
specific weight of 1.28 kg/l at a temper-
ature of 20 °C.
The acid in a partially discharged bat-
tery has a specific weight between 1.00
and 1.28 kg/l.
The specific weight of the acid must be
uniform in all cells.
Unscrew all cell caps.
Take a sample from each cell using the
acid tester.
Put the acid sample back into the same
cell.
Where fluid level is too low, top up cells
to the mark provided with distilled wa-
ter.
Charge battery.
Screw in cell caps.
We recommend the use of our batteries
and chargers; only then a claim under war-
ranty exists.
