manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Remember to review warning marks on all products and on
engines.
1.1 PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
Use in a well ventilated area
.
Ensure there is another person within hearing range, or close enough to come to your aid should a problem arise, when working near a
lead-acid battery.
Have fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or eyes.
Wear safety eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching eyes while working with a battery.
Wash immediately with soap and water if battery acid contacts skin or clothing. If acid enters eye, flush eye immediately with cool, clean
running water for at least 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.
Remove personal metallic items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current
high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, which may cause severe burns.
