Safety Information
Batteries (Where Present)
Batteries present a risk if they become damaged by the possible leaking of
electrolyte. This electrolyte is an acid and can cause serious burn injuries. Care
should be taken when working on or near them. NOTE: the electrolyte may be in a
liquid or gel form.
Should you come in to contact with electrolyte you should;
• Remove all clothing contaminated with electrolyte. If you cannot remove then
saturate them in water.
• Get medical assistance as soon as possible.
You must advise the medical staff of the type of acid.
• Lead/acid battery = dilute sulphuric acid.
• Nickel/cadmium = potassium hydroxide alkali electrolyte.
• Use fresh running water to wash off excess electrolyte, continue this until medical
assistance arrives. Make sure that you do not wash the electrolyte to another part
of your body or face.
• If electrolyte comes in to contact with eyes the electrolyte needs to be
immediately washed away with large amounts of water. Make sure that you do
not wash the electrolyte to another part of your face or body.
• Gasses from charging batteries are highly flammable and great care should be
taken to charge in well ventilated areas.
• There is an explosion risk if the battery terminals are short circuited,
when connecting/disconnecting ALWAYS exercise great care so that
the terminals or battery leads are NOT allowed to touch and cause a
spark. ALWAYS use suitable insulated tools.
