Battery Installation/Charging
Charging Fault
When the top bar is flashing and the bottom two bars are solid, a
charging fault has occurred. A charging fault may be caused by:
• Ambient temperatures that are out of charging temperature range
• A defective battery pack
• A disrupted charge cycle
To remove a charging fault, unplug the charger, allow the pump to equilibrate to
ambient temperature, and try to charge the battery again. If the icon display persists,
call SKC at 724-941-9701.
FAIL Display
Symptom: Press [] from HOLD mode to RUN the pump. The pump will not run
and immediately goes back to HOLD mode.
Display: Press to scroll through the display until FAIL appears.
Explanation: FAIL is a type of fault caused by battery capacity that is insuffi cient
to start the pump motor. This indicates a battery pack that has either developed a
fault or is at the end of its life. The fault cannot be fi xed by recharging the failing
battery pack.
Solution: Remove the battery pack and replace with a new, fully charged battery
pack. Run the pump and scroll through the display. If the pump runs and FAIL is
not displayed, the fault is fi xed. If FAIL still displays, there is a fault in the pump
electronics. Send the pump to SKC for repair.
Use only SKC-approved batteries to ensure reliable performance and intrinsic
safety.
Using a non-approved charger voids any warranty and could damage the pump
or battery.
