10. HANDLING BATTERY
When handling batteries, always do as follows.
• Before working with the battery, stop the engine and turn the key in
the starting switch to the OFF position.
• When working with the battery, always wear safety glasses.
• Batteries generate hydrogen gas, so there is danger of explosion.
Do not smoke, use a lighter, or create any spark near the battery.
• Battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid. If you get acid on
yourself, immediately flush the area with large amounts of water. If
acid gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with large amounts
of fresh water, then go to a doctor for treatment.
• When removing the battery, first disconnect the negative (-) terminal
of the cable from the ground.
When installing, install the positive (+) terminal first.
• If a tool touches the cable connecting the positive terminal and the
chassis, there is danger that it will cause sparks. Do not carry tools
in your breast pocket.
• Defective contact caused by loose battery terminals can generate
sparks and lead to an explosion.
Tighten the battery terminals securely.
10.1 PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING BATTERY
• Always be careful not to let the battery become discharged.
Do not wait for the battery to become discharged before recharging it; measure the specific gravity of the battery electrolyte
beforehand and charge the battery if necessary.
Always keeping the battery in good condition will extend the life of the battery.
• When operating the machine in high temperatures, check the level of the battery electrolyte at shorter intervals than specified
for periodic inspection and maintenance.
• When working in low temperatures, the capacity of the battery will drop considerably, so maintain the battery charge as close
as possible to 100%, and insulate it against cold temperatures so that the machine can be started easily the next morning.
When adding distilled water, to prevent the electrolyte from freezing, always add the distilled water immediately before starting
operations on the following morning.
