5. Remove all metal items, like rings, bracelets, and watches when
working with lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid batteries produce a short
circuit current high enough to weld metal to skin, causing a severe
burn.
6. Have someone within range of your voice or close enough to come to
your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.
7. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid
contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
8. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid
touching your eyes while working near batteries.
9. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap
and water. If acid enters your eye, immediately flood it with running
cold water for at least twenty minutes and get medical attention
immediately.
10. If you need to remove a battery, always remove the ground terminal
from the battery first. Make sure all accessories ar off so you don’t
cause a spark.
Precautions for Using Rechargeable Appliances
Most rechargeable battery-operated equipment uses a separate charger or
transformer that is plugged into an AC receptacle and produces a low
voltage charging output.
Some chargers for small rechargeable batteries can be damaged if
connected to the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus. Do not use the following
with the XPower Inverter 3000 Plus:
•
Small battery-operated appliances like flashlights, razors, and night
lights that can be plugged directly into an AC receptacle to recharge.
•
Some chargers for battery packs used in power hand tools. These
affected chargers display a warning label stating that dangerous
voltages are present at the battery terminals.
