BATTERY INFORMATION
A WARNING
A. Battery acid must be handled with great care as
contact with it can burn and blister the skin. It is
also advisable to wear protective clothing (gog¬
gles, rubber gloves and apron) when working with
it.*
B. Should battery acid accidentally splatter into the
eyes or onto the face, rinse the affected area
immediately with clean cold water. If there is any
further discomfort, seek prompt medical attention.
C. If acid spills on clothing, first dilute it with clean
water, then neutralize with a solution of
ammonia/water or baking soda/water.
D. Since battery acid is corrosive, do not pour it into
any sink or drain. Before discarding empty elec¬
trolyte containers, rinse them with a neutralizing
solution.
E. NEVER connect or disconnect charger clips to
battery while charger is turned on as it can cause
sparks.
F. Keep all lighted materials (cigarettes, matches,
lighters) away from the battery as the hydrogen
gas generated during charging can be combusti¬
ble.
G. As a further precaution, only charge the battery in
a well-ventilated area.
* Always shield eyes and protect skin and
clothing when working near batteries.
A DANGER
BATTERIES CONTAIN SULFURIC ACID
AND MAY CONTAIN EXPLOSIVE GASES
(when electrolyte has been added).
KEEP BATTERIES OUT OF THE REACH
OF CHILDREN.
MAINTENANCE OF BATTERY
1. Check electrolyte level periodically (at least every
two weeks). Keep the level to the split rings. Use
only distilled water or a good quality drinking
water. Never add acid or any other chemicals to
the battery after initial activation.
2. The battery should be checked with a hydrometer
after every 25 hours of operation. If the specific
gravity is less than 1.225, the battery should be
recharged. Maximum charge rate 5 amps.
3. Coat the terminals and exposed wire with a thin
coat of grease or petroleum jelly for longer serv¬
ice and protection against corrosion.
4. The battery should be kept clean. Any deposits
of acid should be neutralized with baking soda
and water. Be careful not to get this solution in
the cells.
5. Avoid tipping the battery. Even a "sealed" battery
will leak electrolyte when tipped.
STORAGE OF THE BATTERY
1. When storing battery for extended periods,
disconnect battery cables. Removing battery
from unit is recommended.
