1. Make sure the key-switch is in the “OFF” position, then remove
the key.
2. Place the forward-reverse switch in the center “OFF” position.
3. Set the park brake.
4. Place blocks under the front wheels to prevent vehicle movement.
5. Disconnect the main positive and negative cables at the batteries.
Do not operate or charge a vehicle equipped with moist charged
batteries until the batteries have been filled with electrolyte and
charged. Operating or charging moist charged batteries before filling
and charging will damage the batteries resulting in premature failure
of the batteries.
Explosive mixtures of Hydrogen gas are present within battery cells
at all times. Do not work with or charge battery in an area where
open flames (including gas furnace or water heater pilots), sparks,
cigarettes, or any other sources of combustion are present. Always
provide ample ventilation in rooms where batteries are being charged.
Failure to do so may result in severe property damage and or serious
A battery is a live electrical source. It cannot be disconnected or
neutralized. Do not drop any tool or conductive object onto the battery.
A conductive object that comes in contact with the battery terminals
will initiate a short circuit of the battery. This could cause the battery
to explode resulting in property damage and/or bodily injury.
Battery electrolyte is poisonous and dangerous. It contains sulfuric
acid. Avoid contact with skin eyes or clothing. Wear rubber gloves
and safety glasses while servicing batteries. DO NOT INGEST! This
may result in serious bodily injury.
Moist Charge Batteries
Moist charged batteries are shipped without battery electrolyte. This allows for a much greater shelf life
of the battery. Moist charged batteries must be filled with electrolyte and charged before putting into
service. Battery electrolyte is a solution of acid and water that is formulated to be used in wet lead acid
batteries and is available at most automotive parts distributors that carry batteries.
