CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1025H TRACTOR
4.15 PREVENT ACID BURNS 4.16 SERVICE TRACTOR SAFELY
Sulfuric acid in battery electrolyte is poisonous. It is
strong enough to burn skin, cause holes in clothing
and cause blindness if found entry into eyes.
For adequate safety always;
1. Fill batteries in a well-ventilated area.
2. Wear eye protection and acid proof hand gloves.
3. Avoid breathing direct fumes when electrolyte is
added.
4. Do not add water to electrolyte as it may splash off
causing severe burns.
If you spill acid on yourself;
1. Flush your skin with water.
2. Flush your eyes with water for 10-15 minutes.
Get medical attention immediately.
Do not wear a necktie, scarf or loose clothing when
you work near moving parts. If these items were to get
caught, severe injury could result.
Remove rings and other jewelry to prevent electrical
shorts and entanglement in moving parts.
4.17 WORK IN VENTILATED AREA
Do not start the tractor in an enclosed building unless
the doors & windows are open for proper ventilation,
as tractor fumes can cause sickness or death. If it
is necessary to run an engine in an enclosed area
remove the exhaust fumes by connecting exhaust
pipe extension.
