(Coninued)
USE THE
FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS
WHEN YOU
WORK
NEAR LEAD-ACID
BATTERIES:
1.
Have plenty
of
fresh water and soap nearby
in
case
battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
2.
Wear
complete
eye protection and protective
clothing. Avoid touching your eyes
while working near
a battery.
If
battery acid contacts your skin or clothing,
wash
immediately
with soap and water. If acid enters
an eye,
immediately flood the
eye with running
cold
water for at
least
ten
(1
0)
minutes and seek
medical
attention as soon as possible.
3.
Be extra cautious when handling metal tools
around a battery.
If you drop a
metal tool
near a
battery it might spark or create a short circuit between
the battery
terminals
and some other
metal part.
Either event may cause a dangerous
electrical shock
hazard, a fire, or
even
an
explosion, resulting
in
property damage,
personal
injury, or death.
4.
Never smoke or
allow an open spark or flame
in
the vicinity
of
the battery or engine.
IMPORTANT
1.
Consider having someone close enough by to come to
your aid when you work near a
lead-acid
battery.
2.
Remove personal metal items such as rings,
bracelets,necklaces, and watches when working with a
lead-acid
battery. A
lead-acid
battery can produce a
short-circuit current high enough to
weld
a ring or the
like
to
metal,causing a severe burn.
3.
Use charger for charging a
LEAD-ACID
battery
only. It
is not intended to
supply
power to a
low voltage electrical
system other than
in
a starter-motor
application.
4.
Do not use battery charger for charging
dry-cell
batteries that are
commonly
used with home
appliances.
These batteries may burst and cause injury
to persons and damage to property.
5.
NEVER
charge a frozen battery.
