IMPORTANT BATTERY INFORMATION
Be certain that the area around the batteries is well ventilated. Before
servicing the batteries, blow away gasses by waving a piece of
cardboard near the batteries.
Dangerous hydrogen gas can be released
from batteries while charging. Sparks can
ignite the gas in an enclosed space. Wear safety goggles when
connecting batteries. Battery connections should be made in a well-
ventilated area.
Working in the vicinity of lead acid batteries
can be dangerous. Before making
connections or servicing the batteries, read and follow instructions
in all applicable instruction manuals. To reduce the risk of battery
explosion, follow the instructions in this manual and those published
by the battery manufacturer, as well as those of any other equipment
used in the surrounding area.
An assistant should be present or close enough to come to your aid in
the event of an emergency. Have a reliable source of fresh water and
soap nearby in case battery acid contacts clothing, skin or eyes.
Wear eye and clothing protection when working around lead acid
batteries.
Avoid touching your eyes when working around lead acid batteries.
If battery acid contacts your eye(s), flush
with cold running water for 20 minutes
and seek immediate medical attention. If acid contacts your skin or
clothing, wash immediately with soap and water.
Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in the
vicinity of the battery.
Avoid dropping metal tools on the battery
posts because they may spark or short-
circuit the system or battery, causing an explosion.
