The batteries are of the sealed lead acid type. Please read the following
information before use.
Warning!
Risk of fire. The batteries are capable of producing very high currents for a
considerable time. Never place the batteries in a position which might allow
the terminals to be shorted by a conducting material.
Warning!
Risk of personal injury. The batteries contain lead and a gel which contains
sulphuric acid. Never use a battery with a damaged case.
Caution!
A damaged battery must be treated with care. Handle only with protective
clothing. Dispose of in accordance with local laws.
Caution!
The battery vents must not be removed for any reason. The battery is
maintenance free and water must not be added. Removal of the vents or the
addition of water to the cells will invalidate the warranty.
Always treat a battery with respect. Not only is it expensive, it is vital to the
correct operation and therefore profitability of the equipment. It should be
considered as an energy store and like any concentration of energy it is only
safe when used correctly. A battery should only be used for its intended
purpose. It should never be used as a doorstop or support block etc. Staff
should be given training to recognise and deal with a damaged battery.
