Battery Hazards
The liquid in batteries contains acid, which is a POISON
and could cause SEVERE CHEMICAL BURNS.
Avoid injury:
• Wear a face shield to prevent contact with your eyes.
• Wear chemical-resistant gloves and clothing to keep
electrolyte off your skin and regular clothing.
WARNING!
Electrolyte will damage eyes or skin on
contact.
Always wear a face shield to avoid
electrolyte in eyes.
If liquid from the battery contacts your eyes, flush
immediately with clean water and get medical attention.
Wear chemical-resistant gloves and protective clothing
to keep liquid off your skin. If liquid contacts exposed
skin or clothing, wash off immediately with clean water.

Avoid Explosion
WARNING!
Avoid serious injury from explosion.
Lead-acid batteries produce extremely explosive gases
especially when being charged.
Keep arcs, sparks,
flames and lighted tobacco away.
•
Do not
smoke near batteries.
• Keep them away from arcs, sparks and open flames.
• Provide adequate ventilation.
Never
check the battery by placing a metal object
across the battery posts. The resulting spark could
cause an explosion.
WARNING!
Avoid serious injury from battery
explosion.
Do not charge a battery or jump-start the
engine if the battery is frozen.
Warm to 60°F (15.6°C) or the battery may explode and
could cause serious injury.
Safety rules during battery jump-starting:
• Follow the instructions for proper battery jump-
starting, as specified in the manufacturer’s manual(s).
• Be sure the machines are not touching.
• Adhere to the polarity of the batteries and
connections.
• Make the final cable connection to the engine or
the farthest ground point away from the battery.
Never make the final connection at the starter or
dead battery. Sparks may ignite the explosive gases
present at the battery.
• When disconnecting cables, remove the cables in
reverse order of connection (e.g., final connection first).
Avoid sparks
and open flames
near batteries
When
jump-starting,
observe polarity and
make final
connection at
ground point
