7. Work on the electrical
system
Batteries generate explosive gases.
Keep them away from naked flame and
sparks which could cause them to ignite.
Do not smoke.
Protect eyes, skin and clothes against the
corrosive battery acid. Pour clear water over
acid splashes immediately.
In case of emergency call a doctor.
Do not place any tools on top of the battery.
Always disconnect the negative (–) terminal
of the battery before working on the electrical
system.
– Do not confuse the positive (+) and
negative (–) terminals of the battery.
– When fitting the battery, first connect the
positive lead, then the negative lead.
Negative terminal to ground = engine case.
– When removing, first disconnect the negative
lead, then the positive lead.
– Always take care to avoid short-circuits and
earth (ground) contact of live cables.
– If malfunctions occur, first of all check that
cable connections make good contact.
– Replace a failed pilot lamp without delay.
– Do not remove the starter key while the
engine is running.
– Do not disconnect the battery while the en-
gine is running. Electric voltage peaks can
cause damage to electronic components.
– Do not splash electrical system with water jet
or pressure jet during engine cleaning.
– When carrying out welding work on the en-
gine or equipment, fit the ground terminal of
the welding equipment as close to the welding
point as possible and disconnect the battery.
The connecting plug for the voltage regulator
must be removed.
The relevant circuit diagrams are enclosed with
the engine if it is equipped with an electrical
system. Additional circuit diagrams can be
supplied to order.
HATZ assumes no liability for electrical systems
which have not been carried out acc. to HATZ
circuit diagrams.
8. Storage out of use
The new engine can normally be stored dry for
up to one year.
In very humid climates or coastal regions, the
protective treatment is sufficient for up to about
6 months.
For longer periods of storage, please contact
your nearest HATZ service station.
