3. System set . 3.1 Placing the battery pack in the pallet truck The power supply to the system takes place through an exchangeable battery pack. With a completely charged battery pack the total weighing time is about 25 hours for a Li-ion battery (for a system without a printer).

On/Off switch Switch the indicator on or off by pressing the on/off key. After 5 seconds all electronics are warmed up and you can start weighing. 4. Changing battery . 4.1 Low battery indication RAVAS-520 An exchangeable battery pack supplies power to the RAVAS-520. When the voltage level of the battery pack is running low, the battery indicator will turn from green to yellow (1). The note ‘LOW POWER’ appears on the display (2). The RAVAS-520 will switch off automatically after 2 minutes.

4.2 Charging the battery pack of the pallet truck The system is equipped with a rechargeable battery pack and a smart charger. After charging for at least 8 hours, the charger will shut off when the battery pack is completely full. The red LED on the adapter will change to green once the battery is fully charged. First position the battery pack inside the charger module (1), then plug the adaptor into the mains voltage (2).

Wrong way of lifting the load Correct way of lifting the load Check the zero reading before each weighing! Before each weighing it is necessary to check whether the system is unloaded and free. If the indicator does not determine the zero point automatically, it must be done manually using the >0< key.
