6 Maintenance

Battery, cables and connections

Every 100 operating hours.

Warning notes and safety regulations for
working with batteries

Wear eye protection.

Keep children away from acid and bat-
teries.

Explosion hazard:
A highly-explosive oxyhydrogen gas
mixture occurs when charging batter-
ies, therefore:

Fires, sparks, naked flames and smok-
ing are prohibited:

• Avoid causing sparks when dealing

with cables and electrical equip-
ment, and beware of electrostatic
discharges.

• Avoid short-circuits.

Corrosive hazard:

Battery acid is highly corrosive, there-
fore:

• Wear protective gloves and eye pro-

tection.

• Do not tilt battery, acid can escape

from the degassing openings or
vents.

First aid:

• Rinse off acid splashed in the eyes

immediately for several minutes
with fresh water. Then consult a
doctor immediately.

• Neutralize acid splash on skin or

clothes immediately with acid neu-
tralizer (soda) or soap suds and
rinse with plenty of water.

• If acid is consumed, consult a doc-

tor immediately.

Warning note:

• Do not place batteries in direct day-

light without protection.

• Discharged batteries can freeze up,

therefore store in an area free from
frost.

Disposal:
Hand in old batteries at a collection
point.
Keep the batteries upright and do not
tip during transport and storage to
prevent acid leaking out.
Never dispose of old batteries as do-
mestic waste.

Careful! Metal parts of the battery will
are always live so never lay objects or
tools on the battery.
