How to pro-long your battery lifespan?
Battery maintenance is well recognized as an important part of
running an efficient and safe vacuum cleaner. However, the
appropriate procedure for the battery maintenance is often
overlooked. Performing maintenance in the correct order is just as
essential as the maintenance steps themselves when it comes to
saving time, extending the lifespan of your battery, and protecting
your equipment.

TROUBLESHOOTING
BATTERY MAINTENANCE

Follow the correct maintenance order for your batteries:
1) Charge battery once it is down to 20% capacity.
Do not allow battery to drop below 20% power before charging.
Discharging the battery’s banks too far will harm the battery,
permanently impacting the performance and endurance of the
battery. It may also overheat, damaging electric circuits to the
forklift.
Allow battery to charge to full power uninterrupted. A battery’s
lifespan is often proportional to the number of charges it receives.
Undercharging, charging for a short periods of time multiple times
a day (this includes quick charging during a lunch break) or
charging before the battery has discharged more than 50% of its
power can all lead to decreased performance rate and a shortened
battery life.
2) Turn power off and allow battery to cool before removing.
Do not turn power off until after battery has reached 100% power.
The battery will run more efficiently throughout the day if it has
reached full power.
This practice will also decrease the number of times the battery
