Batteries
Batteries contain a highly corrosive electrolyte. Pro-

handing batteries. Always use protective goggles and
gloves.
In case of splashes on the skin, wash with soap and
plenty of water. In case of splashes in the eyes, rinse
immediately with plenty of water and call a doctor.
Avoid burns and crushing or cutting!
At operating temperature, the engine coolant is hot
and under pressure. Steam can cause personal
injury. Check the coolant level only after the engine
has been stopped and the coolant filler cap has coo-
led enough to touch with your hand. Never adjust the
V-belts while the engine is running.
Service batteries carefully!
If you spill electrolyte on yourself, flush skin immedia-
tely with lots of water. Apply baking soda to help neu-
tralize the acid. If electrolyte gets in your eyes, rinse
immediately with large amounts of water then contact
a doctor at once.
Handle antifreeze carefully!
Antifreeze contains alkali. Avoid contact with skin
and eyes to prevent personal injury. Dispose of
drained antifreeze coolant according to local
regulations. For disposal, consult your dealer.

shoes, goggles, heavy gloves, ear protectors, etc. -
