GENERAL
Avoid battery hazards
• Batteries contain sulfuric acid which will damage
eyes or skin on contact.
• If acid contacts eyes, flush immediately with
clean water and get prompt medical attention.
• If acid is accidentally swallowed, drink large
quantities of water or milk and call a physician
immediately.
• If acid contacts skin or clothing, wash off im-
mediately with clean water.
• Wear safety glasses and gloves when working
with batteries.
• Batteries generate flammable and explosive gas-
es. Keep arcs, sparks, flames and lighted tobacco
away.
• Use a flashlight to check battery electrolyte lev-
el.
• Stop the engine and shut off electrical equipment
while inspecting or handling the battery.
• Do not short circuit the battery posts with metal
items.
• Always unfasten the negative (–) battery cable
first when disconnecting the battery cable. Al-
ways connect the negative (–) battery cable last
when fastening the battery cable.
• Loose battery terminals may result in sparks. Be
sure to fasten terminals tightly.
• Make sure the vent caps are tightened securely.
• Do not charge a battery or jump-start the engine if
the battery is frozen. Warm to 15°C (60°F) or the
battery may explode.
Have a service agent repair welding
cracks or other damage
Ask a service agent to repair any welding problems
which are detected. If not feasible, make sure the
welding is done by a qualified person in a properly
equipped workplace.
Safety signs
• Keep all safety signs clean and legible.
• Replace all missing, illegible or damaged safety
and warning signs.
Checks after maintenance
• Gradually raise the engine speed from a low idle
to maximum speed and check that no oil or air is
leaking from serviced parts.
• Move the controls and check that the machine is
operating properly.
Disposing of wastes
• Funnel spent fluids from the machine into con-
tainers. Disposing of fluids improperly destroys
the environment.
• Follow the prescribed regulations when disposing
of oil, fuel, engine coolant, refrigerant, solvents,
filters, batteries or other harmful substances.
