Specific safety instructions
•
The battery contains sulfuric acid! This acid must not be allowed to come into contact
with the skin, the eyes, clothing or the machine.
Therefore when recharging or working near the battery:
☞
Always wear goggles and protective clothing with long sleeves
If acid is spilled:
☞
Thoroughly rinse all affected surfaces immediately with plenty of water
☞
Thoroughly wash any part of the body touched by the acid immediately with plenty of
water and seek medical attention at once!
•
During charging in particular, but also during normal battery operation, an oxygen/
hydrogen mixture is formed in the battery cells which has a risk of explosion!
•
Do not attempt to jump-start the machine if the battery is frozen or if the acid level is
low. The battery may rupture or explode!
•
Avoid sparks and unprotected light sources, and refrain from smoking in the vicinity of
opened battery cells, because the gas produced during normal battery operation may
ignite!
•
Use only 12 V power sources. Higher voltages will damage the electrical components
•
When connecting the battery, ensure that the poles are not reversed, because sensitive
electrical components will be damaged
•
Do not interrupt voltage-carrying circuits at the battery terminals, because of the danger
of sparking!
•
Never place tools or other metal items on the battery, because of the risk of short
circuit!
•
Disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting repair work on the electrical
system
•
Dispose of used batteries properly
