REPLACING
THE
BATTERY
(QUALIFIED
SERVICE
PERSONNEL
ONLY)
CAUTION!
Read
and
follow
the
IMPORTANT
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
before
servicing
the
battery.
Service
the
battery
under
the
supervision
of
Qualified
Service
Personnel
knowledgeable
of
batteries
and
their
precautions.
CAUTION!
Use
only
the
specified
type
of
battery.
See
your
dealer
for
replacement
batteries.
CAUTION!
The
battery
may
present
risk
of
electrical
shock.
Do
not
dispose
of
batteries
in
a
fire
as
it
may
explode.
Follow
all
local
ordinances
regarding
proper
disposal
of
batteries.
CAUTION!
Do
not
open
or
mutilate
the
batteries.
Released
electrolyte
is
harmful
to
skin
and
eyes
and
may
be
toxic.
CAUTION!
Although
the
battery
system
voltage
is
only
12VDC
and
24VDC,
the
battery
can
present
a
high
risk
of
short
circuit
current
and
electrical
shock.
The
short
circuit
current
capability
of
the
battery
is
sufficient
to
burn
wire
or
tools
very
rapidly,
producing
molten
metal.
Observe
these
precautions
when
replacing
the
battery:
1.
Remove
all
watches,
rings
or
other
metal
objects.
2.
Only
use
tools
with
insulated
handles.
3.
Do
not
lay
tools
or
metal
parts
on
top
of
battery
or
any
terminals.
4.
Wear
protective
eye
wear
(goggles),
rubber
gloves
and
boots.
5.
Disconnect
the
charging
source
before
connecting
or
disconnecting
the
battery
terminals.
6.
Determine
if
the
battery
is
inadvertently
grounded.
If
inadvertently
grounded,
remove
the
source
of
the
ground.
Contact
with
a
grounded
battery
can
result
in
electrical
shock!
The
likelihood
of
such
shock
will
be
reduced
if
such
grounds
are
removed
during
installation
and
maintenance
(applicable
to
a
UPS
and
a
remote
battery
supply
not
having
a
grounded
circuit).
