attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not
reduce this risk.
10. WARNING – RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES
a. WORKING IN VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS
DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES
DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON,
IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT YOU FOLLOW THE
INSTRUCTIONS EACH TIME YOU USE THE CHARGER.
b. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and
those published by manufacturer of any equipment you intend to
use in vicinity of battery. Review cautionary marking on these
products and on engine.
