5. Battery:
The battery contains an electrolyte with sulphuric acid which can cause severe burns
and emit explosive gases. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes or clothing. Using it
internally is prohibited. It is necessary to follow the precautions stated below:
a. Do not use open fire when inspecting the battery acid. Keep sparks, flames and lit
cigarettes away from battery.
b. Prevent sparks from cable clamps when charging the battery or starting the motor
with a booster battery. (Be careful not to produce sparks with the cable terminal,
when charging the battery-or starting the motor with an auxiliary battery.)
c. When working near the battery, use protective eye wear.
d. When charging or using it in a closed space, ensure good ventilation.
e. Make sure the vent plugs are properly fastened and tightened.
If the electrolyte is ingested or exposed to skin or eyes, proceed as follows:
Skin: Rinse with cold water.
Eyes: Rinse with cold water. Seek medical attention immediately.
Internal ingestion: Seek medical attention immediately.
When welding on VPM 3400:
1) Always disconnect the positive cable (+) from the battery, and put the main switch
in the OFF position.
2) Always disconnect the plugs belonging to tools or other additional devices
(attachments).
6. Always remount the protective covers if they were removed for adjustment or
maintenance purposes. Always make sure all the nuts and bolts are tightened correctly
after carrying out adjustments, see section: Tightening torque/torque moment. Make
sure all the used tools are removed from the machine before remounting the protective
covers and running the machine.
7. Before running the machine, ensure that all persons are out of its reach and at a visible
distance for the machine operator.
