INITIAL BATTERY ACTIVATION
WARNING
Battery electrolyte is poisonous.
It contains
sulfuric acid. Serious burns can result from con-
tact with skin, eyes or clothing. Antidote:
External:
Flush with water.
Internal:
Drink large quantities of water or milk.
Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or
vegetable oil. Call physician immediately.
Eyes:
Flush with water for 15 minutes and get
prompt medical attention.
Batteries produce explosive gases.
Keep
sparks, flame, cigarettes, etc. away. Ventilate
when charging or using in an enclosed space.
Always shield eyes when working near batter-
ies. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
WARNING:
The gases given off by a battery are
explosive. Any spark or open flame near a battery can
cause an explosion which will spray battery acid on
anyone close to it. If battery acid gets on anyone,
wash the affected area with large quantities of cool
water and seek immediate medical attention.
To ensure maximum service life and performance
from a new battery, perform the following steps.
NOTE:
Do not service the battery unless it will be put
into regular service within 30 days.
After initial
service,
add only distilled water
to the battery.
Never add electrolyte after a battery has been in
service.
NOTE: New Battery:
Battery must be fully charged
before use or battery life will be significantly reduced
10-30% of the battery’s full potential.
To activate a new battery:
1.
Remove vent plug from vent fitting. Remove cell
caps.
2.
Fill battery with electrolyte to upper level marks on
case.
3.
Set battery aside to allow for acid absorption and
stabilization for 30 minutes.
4.
Add electrolyte to bring level back to upper level
mark on case.
NOTE:
This is the last time that
electrolyte should be added. If the level becomes
low after this point, add only distilled water.
5.
Charge battery at 1/10 of its amp/hour rating.
Examples: 1/10 of 9 amp battery = .9 amp; 1/10
of 14 amp battery = 1.4 amp; 1/10 of 18 amp
battery = 1.8 amp (recommended charging
rates).
6.
Check specific gravity of each cell with a
hydrometer to assure each has a reading of 1.270
or higher.
