Fig. 5-106
• Wear goggles and rubber gloves when
starting the engine with the booster cable.
• Do not let the normal machine and machine
in failure come into contact with the other.
Because the battery produces hydrogen gas,
sparks around the battery can cause
explosion.
• Do not make mistakes in connecting the
booster cable. Note that there will be some
sparks when making the last connection.
Make this connection at the location as far
as possible from the battery.
• Do not let the booster cable clips contact the
other or machine when disconnecting the
booster cable.
CAUTION:
• Use booster cable and clips of appropriate
size for the battery size.
• The battery in the normal machine and
machine in failure should be of the same
capacity.
• Check that the cable and clips have no
breakage and corrosion.
• Connect the clips securely.
• Verify that the operation levers are at the
"Neutral" position.
