The Battery Loading Associate is accountable for producing a required number of batteries and energy block systems each day and week. Battery loaders will work under the guidance of the 200 Building Supervisors who will work with the Product Area Manager and the Plant Manager on the priority of what enclosures need to be prewired and loaded. Must perform all duties in the department in a safe manner and consistent with all company safety rules.

Responsibilities

• Visually inspect each battery before loading into the tray, look for the following: batteries are barcoded appropriately, cosmetic damage to the external shell of the battery and batteries are stamped by Quality Control.
• Affix wires and terminal protectors to each battery: positives and negatives must be verified for correct polarity, covers must be strung onto the wires correctly for proper alignment, terminal bolts must be properly threaded, torqued to the right settings, torque stripped, inspect trays before loading to ensure all wires are secured properly.
• Battery Loader and only the Battery Loader may operate the specially modified 10,000lb forklift to load battery trays in the enclosure.
• Battery Loader must ensure area is cleared of nonessential personnel
• Loader will approach the cart tray and align the tray loader with the machine
• Loader must visually confirm all personnel are clear and the activate the tray loader to drag the tray from the cart to the loader carrier.
