Indicating the remaining battery
capacity
CAUTION:
Before checking the remaining
battery capacities or switching the battery car-
tridges, be sure to stop the machine.
CAUTION:
When the battery capacity
becomes low, a short beep sound is emitted. In
this case, lock the brake lever, and then switch
the battery cartridges to charged ones or charge
the battery cartridges. If you continue to operate the
machine at low battery capacity and the remaining
battery capacity runs out, a long beep sound is emit-
ted and the machine automatically stops and this may
cause an accident or injury.
CAUTION:
If the beep sound is emitted while
operating on slopes, move the machine to a safe
place, lock the brake lever, and then switch the
battery cartridges to charged ones or charge the
battery cartridges.
CAUTION:
If the load is large and the beep
sound is emitted while operating on slopes, lock
the brake lever and pay attention to safety and
switch the battery cartridges to charged ones.
Move the machine to a safe place and lock the
brake lever. Reduce the load before operating the
machine again. For details, refer to the section for
troubleshooting.
