10. WARNING - RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.
a. WORKING IN VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID
BATTERY IS DANGEROUS. BATTERIES
GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING
NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS
REASON, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE
THAT YOU FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
EACH TIME YOU USE THE POWER PACK.
b. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow
these instructions and those published by
battery manufacturer and manufacturer of
any equipment you intend to use in vicinity
of battery. Review cautionary marking
on these products and on engine.
11. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
a. Consider having someone close
enough by to come to your aid when
you work near a lead-acid battery.
b. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in
case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
c. Wear complete eye protection and clothing.
Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.
d. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing,
wash immediately with soap and water. If
acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with
running cold water for at least 10 minutes
and get medical attention immediately.
e. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame
in vicinity of battery or engine.
f. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping
a metal tool onto battery. It might spark
or short-circuit battery or other electrical
part that may cause explosion.
g. Remove personal metal items such as rings,
bracelets, necklaces, and watches when
working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-
acid battery can produce a short-circuit
current high enough to weld a ring or the
like to metal, causing a severe burn.
12. When charging the internal battery,
work in a well ventilated area and do
not restrict ventilation in any way.
13. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
14. Do not expose a power pack to fire or excessive
temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 104°F may cause explosion.
15. Have servicing performed by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the product is maintained.
