8. Operating Precautions
1-14
WARNING These instructions should be strictly followed for the safety of you, others and your machine.
• The battery electrolyte contains dilute sulfuric acid, which can severely burn the eyes or skin. Al-
ways wear safety goggles and protective clothing when servicing the battery. If contact with the
eyes or skin should occur, flush with a large amount of water and obtain prompt medical treatment.
• Because flammable hydrogen gas is produced by the battery, ignition and explosion may occur.
Keep flames and sparks away from the battery.
• If you swallow battery electrolyte by mistake, drink a large amount of water, milk, or fresh eggs,
and obtain medical treatment immediately.
• Before checking or handling the battery, be sure to stop the engine and turn the starter switch to
the "OFF" position.
• Be careful not to cause a short circuit by placing a tool across the terminals of the battery.
• If a terminal connection is loose, sparks may be generated due to contact failure, causing possible
ignition and explosion. Be sure to connect the terminals securely.
• Do not use the machine with the battery which is short of battery electrolyte. The shortage of bat-
tery electrolyte not only will reduce the life of the battery but also could cause an explosion.
• When you start the engine using booster cables, wear safety goggles.
• If you start the engine by taking electric power from another machine, do not allow your machine
to contact the other machine.
• To connect the booster cables, begin with the positive terminal, and to disconnect them, begin with
the negative terminal (ground side).
• If a tool simultaneously touches the positive terminal and the machine, potentially hazardous
sparks may be generated.
• Do not connect the booster cables to the terminals in reverse polarity. In other words, never con-
nect the negative terminal on one machine to the positive terminal on the other machine.
• As the last step, connect the negative booster cable terminal to the upper structure frame. At that
time, sparks will be generated. Consequently, connect the terminal to a point as far away from the
battery as possible.
For information about starting the engine using booster cables, refer to Section "17-3. If the
battery is overdischarged".
