MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.
Batteries are heavy. Use proper lifting techniques when
moving them. Always lift the battery with a commercially
available battery lifting device. Use care not to tip batteries
when removing or installing them; spilled electrolyte can
cause burns and damage.
The electrolyte in a battery is an acid solution which can
cause severe burns to the skin and eyes. Treat all electro-
lyte spills to the body and eyes with extended flushing
with clear water. Contact a physician immediately.
Always wear a safety shield or approved safety goggles when
adding water or charging batteries.
Any electrolyte spills should be neutralized with a solution of 2
teaspoons (10 ml) sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) dissolved
in 1 quart (1 liter) of water and flushed with water.
Overfilling batteries may result in electrolyte being spilled from
the battery during the charge cycle. Expelled electrolyte may
cause damage to the vehicle and storage facility.
