PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
2.1 Consider having someone close enough by to come to your aid when you work
near a lead-acid battery.
2.2 Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin,
clothing, or eyes.
2.3 Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while
working near battery.
2.4 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.
2.5 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
2.6 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.
2.7 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 the like to metal, causing a severe burn.
2.8 Use the charger for charging only 6 and 12V LEAD-ACID (STD, AGM or deep-
cycle) rechargeable batteries with recommended rated capacities of 12Ah (6V) and
7-33Ah (12V). 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.
2.9 NEVER charge a frozen battery.
