GENERAL INFORMATION

The Battery Transfer Carriage (BTC) is used to remove large batteries from electric industrial trucks.

The BTC is either freely maneuvered on casters by a person at the rear of the BTC by pushing/pulling on the handles of the unit or sideways along a designated travel path by a person at either side of the unit pushing/pulling on a handle of the unit.

The BTC can be one of a possible three operating types / options:

1. Fully Mechanical Unit - The unit is raised and lowered using a manual, hydraulic jack located at the rear of the unit. The battery is manipulated by either A) a hand winch located at the rear of the unit that is attached to the battery and retracted, pulling the battery onto the unit while physically pushing the battery by hand off of the unit or B) an extractor arm that moves inward and outward using a hand wheel located on the left, rear of the unit to push or pull the battery on and off the unit.
2. Fully Electric Unit - The unit has a fully enclosed, self contained, electrically powered, hydraulic power unit located on the right, rear of the unit. Power is supplied by a 12VDC battery located on the left, rear of the unit. The power unit provides power to raise the unit using a hydraulic cylinder and power to move the extractor arm inward and outward using a hydraulic motor. The lift and extraction functions are controlled by individual manual lever valves located within the power unit housing. This unit may be equipped with an optional vacuum extraction which has a vacuum pump located between the push handles at the rear of the unit powered by the DC battery.
3. Partially Electric Unit - The unit is a combination of either mechanical extraction and electric lift or electric extraction and mechanical lift. Operation of this unit is a combination of each type listed above.

GENERAL SAFETY

• Read and understand all instructions and warnings before using or servicing this equipment.

• Keep these instructions for future reference.

• Battery Transfer Carriage (BTC) units shall only be used indoors in an industrial setting on a hard, nonslip, and level floor without defects including but not limited to holes, gouges, cracks, drains or obstacles comprised of concrete or other suitable industrial material.

• Forces required to operate the BTC vary with weight of the load, floor conditions, and carriage conditions.

• BTC units are not designed to be shipped or transported after initial delivery.

• A licensed structural engineer should be consulted prior to installing a BTC on any building level other than the ground floor.

• Perform system and safety check before operating.

• Failure to follow these instructions and warnings may result in property damage, personal injury or death.

WORK AREA

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered work areas and poor lighting can lead to accidents.
• Clean up/contain any fl uid spills immediately to prevent slips or falls.
• Be aware of potential hazards when performing any service or maintenance to the unit.

SERVICE & MAINTENANCE

Service personnel shall wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) appropriate for the task being performed.

LOCKOUT/TAGOUT

Lockout/tagout the BTC per your corporate policy, if damaged or not functioning properly. Lockout/tagout and de-energize all systems prior to performing any maintenance or service to unit.

LEAD-ACID BATTERIES-EXPLOSION HAZARD

Do not allow open flames or sparks of any kind near a battery. Highly explosive gas is generated when charging a battery that can remain in battery cells for extended periods of time after charging is complete.

• Always wear appropriate PPE including rubber apron, gloves, boots and full face shield when performing service or maintenance to any lead-acid batteries.

• Do not place metal or other conductive objects on top of battery. Arcing may occur causing damage to the battery and/or serious personal injury or death.

• Use only chargers matching the voltage and amperage of the battery being charged. Overcharging a battery can cause damage to the battery, charger and/or serious personal injury or death.

• Turn off charger before disconnecting battery from charger. Arcing between battery and charger connectors can cause damage to the connectors and/or serious personal injury or death.

HYDRAULIC HAZARD

AVOID HIGH PRESSURE FLUIDS-Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Relieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. Tighten all connections before applying pressure. Keep hands and body away from pin holes which eject fluids under high pressure. Use a piece of cardboard or paper to search for leaks. DO NOT use your hand.

Any fluid injected into the skin under high pressure should be considered a serious medical emergency despite an initial normal appearance of the skin. There will be a delayed onset of pain, and serious tissue damage may occur. Medical attention should be sought immediately.

OPERATIONAL SAFETY

OPERATIONAL SAFETY

• Only personnel trained in the proper and safe operation of BTC units may operate or service the BTC.

• Operators shall wear appropriate PPE suitable for working with industrial lead-acid batteries while operating the BTC (see prior page).

• All data plates, warning labels, placards, etc shall be in place and legible at all times. Contact BHS for replacement data plates, warning labels, placards or instructions.

• All users and service personnel shall be familiar with the meaning and risks associated with all data plates, warning labels, etc.

• All operators and service personnel shall be aware of potential crush and shear points while operating or servicing the BTC, including the casters and brakes.

• BTC should be operated in an area with ambient light levels of at least 50 lux.

• Keep hands and arms out of the battery compartment while operating the BTC.

• Engage the battery stop(s) and properly secure the battery prior to transporting the battery.

• Attach the hook and chain (if equipped) to the battery prior to transporting the battery.

• Avoid abrupt changes in direction when transporting a battery in the BTC to prevent loss of the battery and/or loss of control of the BTC.

INSTALLATION

The following describes the basic installation procedures for the BTC battery transfer carriage.

1. Once the carriage has been removed from the shipping 1. pallet, the floor lock(s) must be attached. The floor lock is attached to the lower frame on the operator side below the lift cylinder with the supplied hardware. See Figures 1 - 3.
Notes: BTC-30 units have two floor locks. The floor lock is only to be used when parking the carriage when not in use.


FIGURE 1



FIGURE 2



FIGURE 3

2. Ensure that the lift cylinder is properly aligned with the hole located on the underside of the inner frame. This will ensure safe, even lifting. See Figure 4.


FIGURE 4

3. Winch units only: Unbolt the winch support and reposition it toward the rear of the unit. See Figure 5.


FIGURE 5

4. Electric units only:Connect the positive cable to the positive terminal of the battery. See Figure 6.
Note: The battery must be disconnected prior to charging.


FIGURE 6

5. The carriage is now ready for use.

OPERATING CONTROLS

The following is a brief operational overview of the BTC.

EXTRACTION CONTROLS
• Winch Extraction - Rotate the winch handle counterclockwise to extend the winch strap and rotate the winch handle clockwise to retract the winch strap. Winch direction is changed by switching the lever at the rear of the winch. See Figure 7


FIGURE 7

• Mechanical Extraction - Turn the hand wheel counterclockwise to extend the extractor arm toward the lift truck or battery stand and clockwise to retract the extractor arm. See Figure 8. Note: The extractor arm latch must be raised to move the arm when fully retracted. See Figure 9.


FIGURE 8



FIGURE 9

• Electric Extraction - With the green power button depressed, push the extraction valve handle to the right to extend the extractor arm toward the lift truck or battery stand and push the valve handle to the left to retract the extractor arm. See Figure 10.


FIGURE 10

• Vacuum (if equipped) - Pull up the vacuum switch to energize the vacuum pump and push down to de-energize the vacuum pump.
LIFT CONTROLS
• Mechanical Lift - Insert the jack handle into the jack handle socket and pump the jack handle up and down to raise the inner carriage. To lower the inner carriage, slowly turn the release handle located at the base of the manual jack counterclockwise. Turn the release handle clockwise to stop lowering the inner carriage. See Figures 11 & 12.


FIGURE 11



FIGURE 12

• Electric Lift - With the green power button depressed, push the lift valve handle to the left to raise the inner carriage and push the valve handle to the right to lower the inner carriage. See Figure 13.


FIGURE 13

BRAKES

• Vector Brakes - The vector brakes are used when transferring batteries from the BTC to the industrial truck or battery stand. To engage the vector brake, lift the release handle up and slide it forward allowing the vector brake to lower to the floor. To disengage, lift the release handle up until the notch in the release handle is allowed to move rearward, locking the brake in the raised position. See Figures 14 & 15.


FIGURE 14



FIGURE 15

• Floor Lock - The floor lock is to be used any time the BTC is left unattended. DO NOT use the floor lock during the change out process. To engage the fl oor lock, press down on the pedal with your foot. To disengage, press either of the two release tabs on the side of the floor lock with your foot. See Figure 16.


FIGURE 16

OPERATIONAL TEST

After the initial installation has been completed or any service to the unit has been performed, an operational test should be conducted to ensure proper functions of the unit prior to returning the BTC back into service.

• Extractor Arm - Verify proper arm travel by slowly moving the extractor arm fully in and out of the battery compartment.
• Lift - Verify proper lift by slowly raising and lowering the inner carriage through the entire lift range.
• Vector Brakes - Verify operation by engaging and disengaging the vector brake to ensure smooth operation and verify complete contact of the brake pad with the floor. While engaged, carefully pull rearward on the cart to ensure proper engagement of the vector brakes.
Note: When unloaded, it is normal for the front casters of the carriage to lift off the floor as the vector brakes engage.
• Floor Lock - Verify operation by engaging the floor lock and ensure the carriage cannot move when pushed or pulled with moderate force.
• Vacuum (if equipped) - Verify the vacuum pump energizes and there is suction at the vacuum port of the vacuum cup.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The following instructions will guide you through the basic steps necessary to operate and change batteries with a BTC.

Operators must be equipped with all necessary PPE and be properly trained in handling industrial lead-acid lift truck batteries.

1. If not already in place, position industrial truck (pallet or lift truck) which requires a battery change in the appropriate staging area.
2. Disconnect the battery leads and remove any battery restraints.
3. Move the BTC into position such that the roller compartment of the BTC is aligned with the battery compartment of the industrial truck.
4. Verify the battery safety stop at the end of the BTC roller bed is in the down position.
5. Adjust the vertical height of the BTC battery compartment to the battery compartment of the industrial truck or slightly higher. [DO NOT exceed 1/4" difference.].
6. Once the proper height is achieved, the extractor arm can be moved toward the lift truck battery.
   Hook and Chain - Stop the extractor arm approximately 3" - 4" from the battery.
   Vacuum Extraction - Bring the vacuum cup in contact with the battery. DO NOT force the extractor arm into the battery once contact is made.
7. For hook and chain units, attach the hook securely through the lifting eye of the battery and ensure full engagement. See Figure 17. For vacuum units, energize the vacuum.


FIGURE 17

8. Slowly begin removing the battery from the industrial truck battery compartment while inspecting the vertical alignment of both battery compartments. If vertical adjustment is required, disengage the vacuum cup (if equipped) prior to adjusting the height of the BTC.
9. Once the battery is entirely inside the BTC battery compartment, move the battery safety stop to the upright position. For electric units, secure the battery for transport by moving the battery forward using the extractor arm to “pin” the battery between the extractor arm and battery stop to prevent the battery from rocking front to back. If equipped, turn off the vacuum.
10. The battery may now be transported to the charging area.
    Note: When possible, always push carriage so as to not create a hazard should you slip while pulling the carriage. Batteries are heavy and could cause personal injury under such conditions.
11. Align the BTC with an open roller compartment in the battery charging area.
12. Adjust the vertical height as needed for alignment with the battery stand.
13. Engage both vector brakes.
14. Lower the battery safety stop at the front of the carriage.
15. Slowly move the battery from the BTC into the battery stand. For vacuum equipped units, it is not necessary to energize the vacuum for this step.
16. After transfer, raise the battery stop on the stand and disconnect the hook from the battery. DO NOT force the extractor arm into the battery after the battery is completely in the stand.
17. Reposition the BTC at the location of the newly charged battery to be installed in the lift truck.
18. The above process can be used to remove a battery from the roller stand to be installed into the industrial truck.
19. After completing battery changes, the floor lock(s) should be engaged prior to leaving the BTC unattended.
As with all material handling equipment, the transfer carriage should be inspected prior to each use for any visual damage. It should also undergo a routine inspection by trained maintenance personnel to verify and maintain the load capacity of the unit.

MANUAL UNLOADING

Lockout/tagout and de-energize all equipment prior to manually unloading any battery.

In the event of power loss or an operational malfunction of the BTC not allowing the battery to be unloaded using normal operating procedures, it is recommended the battery be removed from the BTC using certifi ed and approved vertical extraction methods and devices.

Read, understand and observe all safety warnings and procedures related to the vertical extraction device(s) being used.

If certified and approved vertical extraction methods and/or devices are not available and the unit’s casters and lift/lower functions operate normally, the battery may be unloaded by hand as follows:

1. Move the BTC into position such that the roller compartment of the BTC is aligned with an empty battery stand roller compartment. Verify the battery safety stop(s) of the empty roller compartment is in the down position.

2. Engage the vector brakes on both sides of the BTC.

3. Adjust the vertical height of the BTC roller compartment with the empty roller compartment or slightly higher. DO NOT exceed 1/4” difference. Verify the battery safety stop(s) at the end of the BTC roller bed is in the down position.

4. Carefully push the battery by hand from the BTC into the battery stand. Move the battery safety stop(s) of the battery stand to the up position.

Hand position should be carefully selected to prevent accidental crushing. Maintain a secure footing to prevent slips, trips or falls.

Use only BHS approved replacement parts.

BHS recommends that a full maintenance inspection report similar to the one provided be done at least once a month.

Any parts found to be excessively worn or damaged should promptly be replaced unless said parts pose a safety risk to the operator and/or extractor, in which case the unit should be removed from service until the problem(s) are remedied (See Operator’s Daily Checklist.)

“READY” STATUS INDICATOR LIGHT

BTC electric motors are protected by an internal thermal switch. If the motor gets too hot, the switch will open so the motor will not operate. When this happens the green light will not be lit. This switch will reset automatically and the light will be lit again when the motor has cooled sufficiently.

The unit is “Ready” for use when the green light is lit. If the light is not lit, check the following:

1. Verify the battery voltage is the same as listed on the serial plate.

2. Verify the correct polarity at the light terminals.

If both these items are correct, then the thermal switch may have opened. Let the motor cool for about 30 minutes and check the green light again. If the green light does not come on, call for service.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

For electric units, the reservoir should be fi lled within 1" of the top of the reservoir with approximately 0.8 Gal / 3.0 L of Chevron hydraulic oil AW ISO 32 or equivalent ISO 32 grade hydraulic oil with anti-wear additives and foam suppressant.

NOTE: It is not necessary to bleed the system after filling the unit.

DISPOSAL OF WASTE MATERIAL

Dispose of all fluids and waste according to local regulations.

STATEMENT OF WARRANTY

Statement of Warranty

Battery Handling Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively “BHS”) warrants to the original purchaser of its equipment, that the equipment shall be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal and proper use, operation, and maintenance during the applicable warranty period set forth below for the product containing the alleged defect:

• Thirteen (13) months from the date of shipment to the original purchaser with respect to frames, weldments, electric drives, motors (except brushes), motor driven pumps, valves, and drive wheel assemblies (except wheels) only.
• Ninety (90) days from the date of shipment to the original purchaser with respect to all other parts not covered above.
• Bulbs, fuses, and filters are not included in this ninety (90) day warranty, unless found to be defective prior to use or within (90) days of shipment to the original purchaser, whichever occurs first.
  BHS’s warranty obligations hereunder are contingent upon the following conditions: (1) BHS or its authorized dealer is promptly (but in no event later than thirty (30) days following the discovery of the claimed defect) notified of the defect; (2) the purchaser establishes to BHS’s reasonable satisfaction that any goods have been properly installed, maintained, and operated; (3) the purchaser returns the defective goods or any part thereof to BHS; and (4) the purchaser complies with all other warranty procedures required by BHS (such procedures are available upon request). Upon a determination by BHS that a product is defective within the above-mentioned warranty period(s), BHS may, at its exclusive option, either provide parts and labor to repair or replace said defective equipment, or grant a credit or refund of the purchase price of the defective equipment. Repaired or replacement equipment and parts will carry the foregoing warranty for the remainder of the original warranty period or ninety (90) days from the date of shipment of the repaired/replaced equipment, whichever is longer.

BHS will cover normal ground freight charges such as ground UPS, common carrier, etc. for the delivery of repaired or replaced equipment or parts covered by this warranty. The cost of any express delivery, if requested, will be the sole responsibility of the purchaser, and the purchaser agrees to provide its account number with its preferred carrier to BHS or to pay the entire cost of express delivery as a condition of BHS’s provision of such express delivery. Unless expressly authorized in writing by BHS, the foregoing warranty does not cover the cost of removal or reinstallation of equipment (or the cost of other activities ancillary thereto), the cost of which will be borne solely by the purchaser.

This warranty is void in the case of abuse, misuse, abnormal use, accidents, overloading, improper installation, repair, or maintenance (other than by BHS), modification of products, application of products not in accordance with the instruction manual and product application bulletins, or any other reason BHS determines that said product is not operating properly as a result of causes other than defective manufacture.

This warranty shall apply exclusively to products sold to the purchaser by BHS. BHS shall not have any liability or obligation to the purchaser, under this warranty or other- wise, with respect to any defect or failure of performance in products which are not sold or manufactured by BHS, including any such products which are commingled with or incorporated into any BHS products, or any products into which BHS products are incorporated as a system component or otherwise without the prior written approval of BHS. This warranty does not cover accessories and attachments not manufactured by BHS. The original manufacturer’s warranty, if any, for such accessories or attachments takes precedence and all claims shall be directed to their respective manufacturers.

ANY LITIGATION TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WARRANTY MUST BE COMMENCED NO LATER THAN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER DISCOVERY REASONABLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE OF ANY FACTS OR OTHER INFORMATION SUGGESTING THE EXISTENCE OF A PRODUCT FAILURE OR A PRODUCT DEFECT. THE WARRANTY SET FORTH HEREIN IS THE COMPLETE AND ENTIRE WARRANTY MADE BY BHS AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF MER- CHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR OTHERWISE, ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED. NO PERSON IS AUTHORIZED TO MAKE ANY OTHER OR ADDITIONAL WARRANTY ON BEHALF OF BHS. THE RIGHT TO REPAIR, REPLACEMENT, OR CREDIT/REFUND, AS SET FORTH HEREIN, IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR BREACH OF THE ABOVE WARRANTY. BHS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR CHARGES OR EXPENSES OF ANY NATURE UNDER THE FOREGOING WARRANTY INCURRED WITHOUT BHS’S CONSENT. FURTHER, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN WARRANTY, CONTRACT, INFRINGEMENT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR FOR ANY OTHER TORT OR CLAIM), SHALL BHS BE LIABLE TO THE PURCHASER OR ANYONE ELSE FOR ANY: (A) INCIDENTAL DAMAGES (EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED FOR ABOVE), OR CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES RELATIVE TO OR ARISING FROM OR CAUSED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BY SAID PRODUCTS OR THE USE THEREOF OR ANY DEFICIENCY, DEFECT, OR INADEQUACY OF SAID PRODUCTS; OR (B) DIRECT DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE BHS EQUIPMENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION, OR AT THE ELECTION OF BHS, THE RESTORATION OR REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF SUCH EQUIPMENT. “CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES” INCLUDE, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION DAMAGES, LOSS OF USE DAMAGES, AND DAMAGE TO REPUTATION OR GOODWILL. This Warranty is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri, without regard to conflict of law principles. All disputes or controversies arising out of or in connection with this Warranty shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of the State of Missouri and any and all process in connection with any litigation arising out of such dispute or controversy may be served by registered, certified mail, return receipt requested, outside Missouri, with the same force and effect as if service had been made in Missouri.

If part of this Warranty is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the entire Warranty, but rather the Warranty shall be construed as if not containing the particular invalid or unenforceable provision.
