EQUIPMENT & SAFE HANDLING PROCEDURE
• Goggles, rubber gloves & rubber boots
• Distilled water
• Baking soda, soda ash
To prevent injury, always wear acid-resistant clothing, PVC gloves, goggles and rubber
boots. Flooded batteries must always be maintained in an upright position. Always have
plenty of water and baking soda on hand in the event of an acid spill during transport.
INSPECTION
When receiving shipment of your batteries, it is important to thoroughly inspect each pallet,
battery and packaging. Before signing acceptance of the shipment, remove the shrink-
wrap from the pallet and inspect each battery for damage (i.e. cracks, dents, punctures,
deformations, acid leaks or other visible abnormalities).
Do not accept shipment if the batteries appear to have been damaged in any way.
Confirm that connection terminals are secure and clean. If the battery is dirty, or if any
minor amount of acid has spilled onto the case due to loose vent caps, refer to the cleaning
instructions in this manual to properly neutralize and clean as necessary. Wet pallets or
signs of acid leak on or around the batteries could indicate shipping damage or improperly
sealed battery casing. Perform a voltage check to confirm the battery polarity and marking
of the terminals are accurate.
In the event of a suspected leak or damage, do not accept the shipment.
Contact your battery retailer or Rolls Battery to determine whether the batter(ies) require
replacement.
Battery shipments which are known to be damaged, but accepted, will not
be replaced under the terms of Rolls Battery manufacturer warranty.
