WARNING! 

Observe the following when working with Lead Acid Batteries.

•

Batteries contain very corrosive diluted Sulphuric Acid as electrolyte. Precautions should 
be taken to prevent contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wear eye protection.

•

Batteries generate Hydrogen and Oxygen during charging resulting in evolution of ex-
plosive gas mixture. Care should be taken to ventilate the battery area and follow the 
battery manufacturer’s recommendations. 

•

Never smoke or allow a spark or flame near the batteries. 

•

Use caution to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool on the battery. It could spark or 
short circuit the battery or other electrical parts and could cause an explosion. Always 
use insulated tools.
