Cleaning The Machine; Nuts And Bolts; Storing The Battery - Alpina ABL 40 Li Manual De Instrucciones

To optimise battery power reserve
it is always recommended to:
• set a rotor speed suited to the type
of material to be removed.
If the need arises to use the machine for
sessions which exceed the capability of
a standard battery, it is possible to:
• purchase a second standard battery
to immediately replace the discharged
battery, without compromising
the continuity of operations;
• purchase a battery with an extended
power reserve compared to the
standard version (para. 14.1).
7.2.2 Battery removal and recharging
1. Press the buttons on the battery (fig.
6.A) and remove it (Fig. 6.B);
2. fit the battery (Fig. 7.A) in the battery
charger housing (Fig. 7.B);
3. connect the battery charger (Fig. 7.B)
to a power socket with the voltage
indicated on the rating plate.
4. fully charge the battery according
to the instructions in the battery/
battery charger booklet.
NOTE The battery is equipped with a guard
that inhibits recharging if the environmental
temperature is not between 0 and +45°C.
IMPORTANT The battery can be
charged at any time, even partially,
with no risk of damaging it.
7.2.3 Refitting the battery on the machine
When recharging is completed:
1. Remove the battery (Fig. 8.A) from
its housing in the battery charger
(do not continue recharging once
recharging is completed);
2. disconnect the battery charger (Fig.
8.B) from the electrical mains;
3. Fit the battery (Fig. 9.A) in its housing
pressing down until you hear it clicks firmly
into position and check the electrical contact.

7.3 CLEANING THE MACHINE

To reduce the risk of fire, keep the
machine free of leaves and twigs.
• Always clean the machine after use with a
damp cloth dipped in neutral detergent.
• Remove all traces of humidity using
a soft damp cloth. Humidity can
generate risks of electric shocks.
• Do not use aggressive detergents or solvents
to clean the plastic parts or hand grips.
• Do not spray water onto the motor
and electrical components and
prevent them from getting wet.
• Always keep the rotor clean and
free of dust and debris, by blowing
compressed air through the grille.
Do not spray water on the rotor.
• To avoid overheating and damage to the
motor or the battery, always keep the
cooling air vents clean and free of debris.
