To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow
these instructions and those published by the
battery manufacturer and the manufacturer of
any equipment you plan to use in the vicinity of
the battery. Review cautionary markings on the
products and the engine.
8. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS when working with
or near a lead acid battery:
a. Someone should be able to hear your voice or close
enough to aid you when working near a lead acid battery.
b. Have fresh water and soap nearby case battery acid
contact skin, clothing, or eyes. Wear complete eye protection
and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working
near battery.
c. If battery acid does contact skin or clothing, wash
immediately with soap and water. If acid entered the eye,
immediately flood the eye with running water for at least 10
minutes and get help immediately.
d. NEVER smoke or allow a spark of flame near battery or
engine.
e. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool
or auto part onto battery. It might spark or short circuit battery
or other electrical part that may cause an explosion.
f. 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.
g. Charger is designed to be used for
recharging lead acid batteries ONLY. Never use it
to power a low voltage electrical system, or for
attempting to recharge dry cell batteries that are
commonly used in house holds. These batteries
may explode and cause injury to persons and
damage property
