Operation Manual 49
Operation
Lead-acid batteries produce flammable and potentially ex-
plosive gases. To avoid death or serious injury when check-
ing, testing, or charging batteries:
• DO NOT use smoking materials near batteries.
• Keep arcs, sparks, and open flames away from batteries.
• Provide ventilation for flammable vapors.
• Wear proper personal protective equipment, including
safety glasses.
Fluid in electric storage batteries contains sulfuric acid,
which is poison and could cause severe chemical burns.
Avoid all contact of fluid with eyes, skin, or clothing. Use
protective gear when handling batteries. DO NOT tip a bat-
tery beyond a 45° angle in any direction. If contact does
occur, follow these First Aid suggestions:
• External contact - Flush with water.
• Eyes - Flush with water (including under the eyelids)
for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention
immediately. Flushing must begin immediately to
avoid permanent eye tissue damage.
• Internal contact - Drink large quantities of water or milk
to dilute stomach contents. Do not induce vomiting.
Get medical attention immediately.
IMPORTANT - In case of internal contact, DO NOT give fluids
that induce vomiting.
Warning
Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds, chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or
other reproductive harm. Wash hands after

Warning
Wear eye protection when starting a fork-
lift with jump start cables. Improper jump
start procedures could cause the battery to
explode, which could result in death or seri-
ous injury.
• Never jump start a frozen battery, as it can explode. Let
the battery thaw out before charging.
• NEVER jump start the forklift when travel select lever is
in gear, which can cause the forklift to lurch forward or
backward, and could result in death, serious injury, or
property damage.
• To avoid injury or death when jump starting with
another forklift, make sure the two (2) forklifts are not
touching.
• DO NOT allow jump start cable ends to contact each
other.
• Connect charged battery positive (+) to stalled battery
positive (+).
• Connect charged battery negative (–) to stalled forklift
ground. Make the connection to the stalled forklift
ground last.
• Connect jump start cable to stalled forklift ground a
safe distance from the battery to prevent sparks near
the battery.
• Jump start only with a power source with the same
voltage as the stalled forklift.
• Turn off all lights and accessories on the stalled forklift
to prevent them from operating when the power source
is connected.
• Electrolyte contains acid and could cause serious
personal injury if it contacts the skin or eyes.
Tires must have proper ballast. DO NOT
replace foam-filled tires with pneumatic tires.
Use of pneumatic tires will severely affect
forklift load capacity, which could result in
death, serious injury, or property damage.
