SlideSmart uses sealed, state-of-the-art Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) batteries and highly recommends replacing
used batteries with new AGM-type batteries.
&$87,21
The batteries used with the SlideSmart gate operator contain materials that are considered haz-
ardous to the environment. Proper disposal of the battery is required by federal law. Refer to
federal guidelines found in
Hazardous Waste Regulations
.
To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons:
•
Observe the polarity between the batteries and charging circuit.
•
Never mix battery sizes, types, or brands. The charging circuit on HySecurity DC operators is designed for
AGM-type batteries, not lead acid-type batteries. HySecurity strongly recommends that only sealed AGM
style batteries be used.
•
Exercise care in handling batteries. Be aware that the metal found in rings, bracelets, and keys can conduct
electricity, short the batteries, and cause potential injury.
•
Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Battery cells contain corrosive materials which may cause burns and
other injuries. The material within batteries is toxic.
•
Always dispose of batteries properly. Do NOT place batteries in fire. The battery cells may explode. Follow
federal guidelines for proper disposal of hazardous waste.
•
Replace batteries according to the instructions found in DC Battery Replacement.
