Batteries
Page 5
Explosive mixtures of Hydrogen gas are
present within battery cells at all times. Do
not work with or charge battery in an area
where open flames (including gas furnace
or water heater pilots), sparks, cigarettes,
or any other sources of combustion are
present. Always provide ample ventilation
in rooms where batteries are being
charged. Failure to do so may result in
severe bodily injury and/or property
damage.
Battery electrolyte will stain and corrode
most surfaces. Immediately and
thoroughly clean any surface outside of the
battery that the battery electrolyte comes
in contact with. Failure to clean may result
in property damage.
1. Make sure the key-switch is in the “OFF”
position, then remove the key.
2. Place the forward-reverse switch in the
center “OFF” position.
3. Set the park brake.
4. Place blocks under the front wheels to
prevent vehicle movement.
5. Disconnect the main positive and
negative cables at the batteries.
A battery is a live electrical source. It
cannot be disconnected or neutralized. Do
not drop any tool or conductive object onto
the battery. A conductive object that comes
in contact with the battery terminals will
initiate a short circuit of the battery. This
could cause the battery to explode
resulting in severe bodily injury and/or
property damage.
Battery electrolyte is poisonous and
dangerous. It contains sulfuric acid. Avoid
contact with skin eyes or clothing. Wear
rubber gloves and safety glasses while
servicing batteries. DO NOT INGEST! This
may result in severe bodily injury.
Do not overfill the batteries. Over filling the
batteries may cause the battery electrolyte
to boil out of the battery and result in
severe bodily injury or property damage.
WATERING
NOTE: The electrolyte level in a battery rises while
charging and will be close to its highest level
after the end of a charging cycle. It is
recommended to fill the batteries at the end
of a charging cycle. If the electrolyte is below
the top of the battery plates then fill just
enough to cover the plates and then top off
when the charging cycle is complete.
6. Clean the batteries. Refer to
Cleaning the
Batteries
section for information on cleaning the
batteries.
7. Check the electrolyte level in all battery cells. If
low, fill to the correct level with distilled water using
part number
77-201-00
battery filler, never add
additional battery electrolyte to the batteries.
8. Reconnect the batteries, remove the blocks from
the wheels and test drive.
