The electronic box of Olytech 665 must be connected ONLY to the original Volpi Lithium
battery.
Volpi Lithium battery characteristics: nominal voltage 44,0V – Capacity 17,5Ah.
Outside temperature between +1°C and +40°C.

USE OF THE PICKING MACHINE
Codes 455SP-L-XL
The machine power supply is provided by a lead acid accumulator – 12V battery - 70÷80Ah (not
included) that, through a 15m long power cable with clamps for the connection to the battery, can give
power directly to the motor of the machine. Since there is no adjustment of the supply voltage, the motor
rotation speed is maximum when the battery is charged and decreases slightly while the battery is
discharging. This situation is normal. When the tines rotating speed reduces intensely, you have to switch
off the machine and charge the battery. It is very important to connect the clamps of the cable to the
battery when the switch is off, to avoid the machine starts working suddenly.
Always turn off the switch every time you need to stop the machine or disconnect a cable. In case of
overloading, with excessive effort of the head among the branches, the motor stops automatically in
order to protect all the parts of the machine. Waiting for a few minutes, the machine re-start working
automatically. If such a security system activates frequently, it means that the impact of the machine
with the tree branches is too violent and, therefore, it is necessary to use the harvester with more
regularity.
Codes 555SP-L-XL Ref. fig. D.1
Energy to the machine is provided by a 12-24Vdc-50÷60Ah car type battery (not included) connected to
the electronic box by 1mt two wires cable holding two nippers, red on the positive (+) and black on the
negative (-). The electronic circuit provides several features:
Regulation of the working tension, so that the rotation speed of the engine can be constant.
Protection against the automatic re-start of the machine after one occasional stop caused, as an
example, by the detachment of one nipper; when the nipper is connected again the machine does not
start automatically; the operator has to switch OFF-ON the main switch on the head and the machine will
start operating again.
The electronic box shows the various functions of the machine through 5 Leds:
•
ON - green Led: indicates that the electronic circuit is properly connected.
•
MOTOR - yellow Led: indicates that the engine is properly connected to the electronic circuit.
•
SPEED/VELOCITA' - red Led: indicates which speed has been selected. Pushing once one of the
2 keys 1 or 2 you are selecting the desired speed (1=min; 2=max). Pushing twice the same
key the machine stops. To restart the machine, you have to put the switch located on the
machine in the OFF position and, after 5 seconds, put it in the ON position; the yellow led will
light up and the machine will start again. The lighted red led will indicate the speed that has
been selected.
•
ALARM – Red Led:
fixed light means that the battery is off charge.
o
blinking light means that the battery voltage is becoming low.
o
if after charging the battery and having operated ON-OFF the main switch the red
o
light is still blinking, this requires the technical assistance provided in your territory.
IMPORTANT:
In the most part of the cases the speed 1 is enough to harvest olives, therefore we advise the usage of
this speed. In the rare event, instead, you need greater energy during the harvesting, it is possible to use
speed 2 for a limited period of time. The usage of speed 1 allow you to save both from the energy point
of view and also for the autonomy of the battery.
