Always
wear splashproof safety
goggles, rubber gloves, and boots
when servicing the battery.
Do not
open a sealed battery or mutilate the
battery case. If battery acid splashes in
the eyes or on the skin, immediately
flush the affected area for 15 minutes
with large quantities of clean water.
Seek immediate medical aid in the case
of eye contact. Never add acid to a

avoid sparks, do not disturb the battery
charger connections while the battery
is charging. Always turn the battery
charger off before disconnecting the
battery connections.
Ventilate the
compartments containing batteries to
prevent accumulation of explosive
gases.
