PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
1. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work near a
lead-acid battery.
2. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or eyes.
3. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.
4. 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.
5. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
6. 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.
7. 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 other
jewelry to metal, causing a severe burn.
8. Use charger for charging LEAD-ACID batteries only. It is not intended to supply power to a low voltage
electrical system other than in a starter-motor application. Do not use battery charger for charging dry-cell
batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause injury to
persons and damage to property.
9. NEVER charge a frozen battery, as battery explosion can result.
