How to install GTS HCK60-LI(2X) High Capacity Battery

Before starting, power down all devices and remove them from any charging docks to avoid power surges or data loss. Have a clean, dry workspace and handle components with care to prevent damage to sensitive contacts.

Step 1: Remove the device cover or back panel following the manufacturer’s guidelines for your CK60/CK61 unit or the associated IER680/PB printer model. Ensure the power switch is off and there are no external power connections.

Step 2: Locate the battery compartment and identify the battery connector. If you see any locking clips or screws securing the battery cover, release them carefully and set aside.

Step 3: Gently disconnect the existing battery connector from the device. Do not pull on any wires; grasp the connector housing and detach with a straight, steady motion to avoid bending pins or causing a micro-short.

Step 4: Remove the old battery from its cavity, taking care not to damage adjacent components or ports. Check the contact areas for corrosion or debris and clean if necessary using a dry, lint-free cloth.

Step 5: Align the GTS HCK60-LI(2X) battery with the contact points and seat it firmly in the cavity. Reconnect the battery connector, ensuring a secure, snug fit that prevents any looseness during use.

Step 6: Reinstall the back cover or battery compartment latch. Reconnect the device to power and allow the battery to initiate a full charge. For best results, charge to full the first time and then complete calibration cycles as recommended by your device’s user manual.

Step 7: Power on the device and perform a brief test to verify battery level reporting, runtime expectations, and proper operation of scanning and printing functions. If you notice any abnormal heat, swelling, or performance issues, discontinue use and consult technical support. Finally, dispose of the old battery in accordance with local regulations and recycling guidelines for Li-ion cells.
