Owner's Manual and Service Guide
To reduce the possibility of causing an elec-
trical arc, which could result in a battery
explosion, turn off all electrical loads from
the battery before removing battery wires.
Wrap wrenches with vinyl
tape to reduce the possi-
bility of a dropped wrench
'shorting out' a battery, which could result in
an explosion.
Reduce the possibility of accidental starting
by removing and grounding spark plug
wires and disconnecting battery at negative
terminal before servicing.
The electrolyte in a battery is an acid solu-
tion which can cause severe burns to the
skin and eyes. Treat all electrolyte spills to the body and eyes with extended flushing
with clear water. Contact a physician imme-
diately.
Any electrolyte spills should be neutralized
with a solution of 2 teaspoons (10 ml) sodi-
um bicarbonate (baking soda) dissolved in 1
quart (1 liters) of water and flushed with
water.
Aerosol containers of battery terminal pro-
tectant must be used with extreme care.
Insulate metal container to reduce the pos-
sibility of can contacting battery terminals
which could result in an explosion.
