3-4  Receiving & Installation

MN2403

Battery Connections

  The generator is shipped with no battery installed.

WARNING: Installation and servicing of batteries is to be performed or supervised by personnel

knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions.  Keep unauthorized personnel away

from batteries.

WARNING: Disconnect the battery’s ground terminal before working in the vicinity of the battery or

battery wires.   Contact with the battery can result in electrical shock when a tool accidently

touches the positive battery terminal or wire.  The risk of such shock is reduced when the

ground lead is removed during installation and maintenance.

WARNING: Do not mutilate the battery or dispose of a battery in a fire.  The battery is capable of

exploding.  If the battery explodes, electrolyte solution will be released in all directions.

Battery electrolyte solution is caustic and can cause severe burns and blindness.  If

electrolyte contacts skin or eyes, immediately flush the area with water and seek medical

attention quickly.

WARNING: A battery presents a risk of electrical shock hazard and high short circuit current.  Electrical

shock can cause serious or fatal injury.  Never wear jewelry, watch or any metal objects when

in the area around the battery.

The following precautions are to be followed when working on batteries:

1.

Remove watches, rings, necklaces and all other metal objects.

2.

Use tools with insulated handles.

3.

Wear rubber gloves and boots.

WARNING: The battery electrolyte is a dilute sulfuric acid that is harmful to the skin and eyes.  It is

electrically conductive and corrosive.  If electrolyte contacts the skin, flush the area

immediately with water and wash it off using soap and water.  If electrolyte contacts the eyes,

immediately flush the eye thoroughly with water and seek medical attention quickly.

The following precautions are to be followed when working on batteries:

1.

Wear full eye protection (safety glasses or goggles) and protective clothing.

2.

Where electrolyte contacts the skin, flush the area immediately with water and wash it

off using soap and water.

3.

Where electrolyte contacts the eyes, immediately flush the eye thoroughly with water

and seek medical attention quickly.

4.

Spilled electrolyte is to be washed down with an acid neutralizing agent.  A common

practice is to use a solution of one pound (500 grams) bicarbonate of soda to one

gallon (four liters) of water. The bicarbonate solution is to be added until evidence of

reaction (foaming) has ceased.  The resulting liquid is to be flushed with water and the

area dried.

WARNING: A battery presents a risk of fire and explosion because they generate hydrogen gas.

Hydrogen gas is extremely explosive.  Never jump start a battery, smoke in the area around

the battery or cause any spark to occur in the area around the battery.

The following precautions are to be followed when working on batteries:

1.

Do not smoke when near batteries.

2.

Do not cause flame or spark in battery area.

3.

Discharge static electricity from body before touching batteries by first touching a

grounded metal surface.

WARNING: Disconnect the battery’s ground terminal before working in the vicinity of the battery or

battery wires.   Contact with the battery can result in electrical shock when a tool accidently

touches the positive battery terminal or wire.  The risk of such shock is reduced when the

ground lead is removed during installation and maintenance.

Procedure:

The correct type battery must be installed in the battery compartment provided, see Table 3-1.

Installation and servicing of batteries is to be performed or supervised by personnel

knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions. 

Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries.

1.

Verify that the engine’s starter key is in the “STOP” position.

2.

Connect the positive lead to the positive (+) battery terminal as shown in Figure 3-3.

3.

Connect the negative lead to the negative (

) battery terminal as shown in Figure 3-3.

4.

Place the battery (see Table 3-1) on the Battery Base as shown in Figure 3-3 (with

terminals facing inwards) and push the battery all the way inward.
