14. BATTERY
DANGER:
• The battery generates very explosive
gases, so avoid smoking and keep sparks
and open flames away from the battery.
Charging the battery should be done in
a place well ventilated to disperse explo-
sive gases as quickly as possible.
• Battery electrolyte is very corrosive and
will cause burns, so if it splashes on skin
or clothes, wash it off immediately. If acid
contacts eyes, flush immediately with
clean water and get medical attention.
• When using booster cables, take suffi-
cient safety measures (Refer to page 19,
20 and 21).
■
INSPECTION OF ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
The battery is installed on the rear of the radiator of
the lawn mower. Check to see if the electrolyte level
is between the upper and lower limits. When the level
is near to the lower limit or below, raise the level with
distilled water to the upper limit.
