Handling
To prevent damage to the cells and personal injury when moving/handling the batteries, follow
the procedures in this section. For ease of explanation, lifting/handling instructions are grouped
into three categories depending on the size of the units:
See Section 6.3.1 — small cell handling (C)
See Section 6.3.2 — medium cell handling (E and F)
See Section 6.3.3 — large cell handling (D and G)
DO NOT lift any cell by the terminal posts
as this will
void the warranty
. When lifting large
cells/units with crane, hoist or similar device, use the lifting belt(s) and protective styrofoam
shipping cover(s) provided.
DO NOT tamper with the seal nuts
on the cell posts as this will
void the warranty
.
