WARNING
Battery Storage and Transport:
Lithium batteries are a high energy power source and
can become a potential hazard if improperly handled.
Lindsay Manufacturing is not responsible for any battery failures due to operator misuse.
Lithium batteries are non-corrosive. However, extreme heat (contact with open flame or system shorting) will
cause the battery to rupture and cause severe injury and damage equipment. Observe the following when han-
dling or transporting batteries:
• When transporting, all packaging must have the proper warning labels clearly displayed on the outside of the
containers.
•
Do not transport or operate batteries at temperatures beyond their specified range.
• Do not crush, break, or disassemble the battery.
• Do not short circuit, recharge, overcharge, or connect the battery with reversed polarity.
• Do not weld or solder onto the battery casing or within close proximity to the battery.
•
Do not submerge the battery in water or apply any fluids onto the battery.
• If the battery is drained of power or damaged, consult Lindsay Manufacturing for replacement.
• Adhere to all local laws and regulations for disposal/recycling of lithium batteries.
CAUTION
Prepare for Emergencies:
Be prepared for any emergency that may occur.
