Precautions When Working With Batteries
IMPORTANT: Battery work and maintenance must be done by qualified
personnel knowledgeable about batteries to ensure compliance with battery
handling and maintenance safety precautions.
DANGER
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
• Determine if the battery is inadvertently earthed (grounded). If inadvertently
grounded, remove the source from ground.
• Avoid contact with any part of a grounded battery.
• Remove ground during installation and maintenance.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in moderate or minor injury.
WARNING
BURN AND FIRE HAZARD
• Always wear proper, non-absorbent gloves, complete eye protection, and
clothing protection.
• Remove all personal metal items, like rings, bracelets, and watches when
working with batteries. See CAUTION below.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame near batteries.
• Batteries can produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring or
metal bracelet or the like to the battery terminal, causing a severe burn.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
CHEMICAL, BURN, AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
• Never allow battery acid to drip when reading specific gravity or filling
battery.
• Make sure the area around the battery is well ventilated.
• Make sure the voltage of the batteries matches the output voltage of the
inverter/charger.
