3.6. Individual Operations of Maintenance
Use protective gloves and eye protec-
tion equipment when working with the
battery.
Wear suitable dress to protect your skin
against staining with electrolyte.
In case of an eye injured by electrolyte
immediately wash the eye with owing
water for couple of minutes. Then seek
medical advice.
In case of ingestion of electrolyte drink
maximum possible amount of milk, wa-
ter or mixture of magnesium oxide with
water.
In case of staining your skin with elec-
trolyte take o your clothes and shoes,
wash injured spots with soap water or
with solution of soda and water as soon
as possible. Then seek medical advice.
Do not eat, drink and smoke during
operation!
Wash your hands and face carefully with
soap and water after nishing you work!
Do not test whether wires are alive by
touching the frame of the machine.
In case of contact of both poles of the
battery the short-circuit may cause ex-
plosion of the battery.
Keep the batteries dry and clean.
Close batteries after checking.
Rell battery with distilled water only -
never with acid.
Rell distilled water immediately before
working with the machine or before re-
charging the battery.
Recharge insuciently charged battery.
Recharge batteries dismantled from the
machine.
Open the plugs before recharging.
Do not disconnect the battery under run-
ning engine.
Always follow the instructions of the
manufacturer, when working with the
battery.
Disconnect the battery to avoid short-
circuit when repairing it or manipulating
with wires and electric equipment in the
circuit of electric system.
Disconnect the minus pole wire rst
when disconnecting the battery. Connect
the plus pole wire rst when connecting
the battery.
Do not turn batteries upside down to
avoid draining of electrolyte from vent-
ing of the battery.
In case of spilling electrolyte wash such
a place with water and neutralise with
lime.
Dispose of old damaged batteries.
! NOTE !
If a maintenance-free battery is installed on the
machine, it is not necessary to check the electro-
lyte level and the electrolyte is not lled up for the
whole service life of the battery. Other tasks pre-
scribed above must be performed. Consult the bat-
tery discharge condition – the lowest permissible
voltage level (measures on the battery terminals)
under which the battery could be damaged and the
charging procedure with the manufacturer.
