Cab overview, use, operation 1.12 Jump-starting the diesel engine (external battery) Safety instructions regarding external starting aids Danger! In order to avoid electrical short-circuit or overvoltage, the battery jumper cable on the positive (+) terminals of the batteries must never be brought into contact with electrically conductive vehicle parts!
☞ The external power source must deliver 12 V; higher supply voltages will
damage the electrical system of the vehicles! ☞ Use only authorised jump leads which conform to the safety requirements and which are in perfect condition! ☞ Route the jump leads so they cannot catch on rotating components in the engine compartment!
Providing external starting aid ☞ Proceed as follows:
Flat battery

• Drive the jump-starting vehicle close enough to the telehandler so that the jump leads can reach to connect the two batteries • Let the diesel engine of the jump-starting vehicle run • First connect one end of the red jump lead (+) to the + terminal of the flat battery, then connect the other end to the + terminal of the starting battery • Connect one end of the black jump lead (−) to the – terminal of the starting battery • Connect the other end of the black jump lead (−) onto a solid metal component fimly mounted on the engine block or onto the engine block itself. ➥ Do not connect it to the negative terminal of the flat battery, as otherwise explosive gas emerging from the battery can ignite if sparks are formed! • Start the diesel engine of the machine with the flat battery Once the engine has started: • With the diesel engine running, disconnect the jump lead from the batteries in the reverse order
Notice! In order to avoid sparking, first disconnect the jump lead on the – terminal, then the one on the + terminal of the batteries!
