Danger!
Battery acid is highly caustic!
Caustic injury hazard!
Therefore when recharging and/or working near the battery:
☞ Always wear safety glasses and protective clothing with long sleeves
If acid is spilled:
☞ immediately flush all contaminated surfaces with plenty of water
☞ Thoroughly wash any part of the body touched by the acid immediately with
plenty of water and seek medical attention at once!
Especially when charging batteries, as well as during normal operation of
batteries, an oxyhydrogen mixture is formed in the battery cells –
Explosion hazard!
☞ Avoid open lights and sparks near the battery and do not smoke!
☞ Do not attempt to jump-start the machine if the battery is frozen or if the
acid level is low. The battery can burst or explode!
• Replace the battery immediately
☞ Always disconnect the negative terminal (–) from the battery before starting
repair work on the electrical system!
Battery A is located under the cover. The battery is “maintenance-free”. However, have
the battery checked at regular intervals to ensure that the electrolyte level is between the
MIN and MAX marks.
Checking the battery requires it to be removed and must be performed by a Wacker Neu-
son service center.
Always follow the specific battery safety instructions!
Notice!
Do not disconnect the battery while the engine is running!
