Commissioning
8.1
First commissioning
Prior to first commissioning the battery (item 3, see cover page) must be charged. Connect the
charger to a suitable power supply. Connect the plug on the charging cable with the charging
socket in the battery housing (item 4, see cover page)

8.2.1 Connection between battery and pump unit
Make sure that the pump unit is switched off (check with the main switch position), otherwise
sparks might occur. Put the battery on a level, non-slip surface. Put the pump unit on top of the
battery and adjust it so that the marks on pump body and battery housing are in line with each
other (see picture 5). This is to make sure that the contact pins are aligned with the corresponding
holes in the contact ring of the battery (see picture 6).
Push the pump housing downwards (see picture 7) and turn it clockwise until the contact pins
engage in the end position of the contact ring. Now the pump unit and the battery are connected
both mechanically and electrically.
For disconnecting the battery reverse the sequence described above.
Remark: As the contact ring is using a spring-loaded mechanism, the mechanic connection is not
absolutely rigid, i. e. a slight swivelling of the pump unit as against the battery is acceptable.
8.2.2 The Dump Valve
Open the dump valve (see picture 8) by turning it counterclockwise.
The dump valve is now open, and the hoses can be connected
with a rescue tool.
