Battery Safety
Burn Hazards
Batteries contain acid.
Always wear protective
clothing and eye wear
when working with
batteries.
Avoid spilling or contacting
battery acid. Neutralize
battery acid spills with
baking soda and water.
Do not expose the batteries or the charger to water
or rain during charging.
Explosion Hazards
Keep sparks, flames and
lighted tobacco away from
batteries. Batteries emit an
explosive gas.
The battery tray should
remain open during the
entire charging cycle.
Do not contact the battery
terminals or the cable
clamps with tools that may
cause sparks.
Component Damage Hazard
Do not use any battery charger greater than 24V to
charge the batteries.
Electrocution/Burn Hazards
Connect the battery
charger to a grounded, AC
3-wire electrical outlet only.
Inspect daily for damaged
cords, cables and wires.
Replace damaged items
before operating.
Avoid electrical shock/
burns from contact with
battery terminals. Remove
all rings, watches and other
jewelry.
Tip-over Hazard
Do not use batteries that weigh less than the
original equipment. Batteries are used as
counterweight and are critical to machine stability.
Each battery must weigh 28 kg.

Use the appropriate number of people and proper
lifting techniques when lifting batteries.
