EQUIPMENT & SAFE HANDLING PROCEDURE
Goggles, rubber gloves & rubber boots
Distilled water
Baking soda, soda ash
To prevent injury, always wear acid-resistant clothing, PVC gloves, goggles and
rubber boots. Flooded batteries must be maintained in an upright position at all times.
Always have plenty of water and baking soda on hand in the event of an acid spill
during transport.
INSPECTION
When receiving shipment of your batteries, it is important to thoroughly inspect each
pallet, battery and packaging. Before signing acceptance of the shipment, remove the
shrink-wrap from the pallet and inspect each battery for damage (i.e. cracks, dents,
punctures, deformations, acid leaks or other visible abnormalities).
Do not accept shipment if the batteries appear to have been damaged in any way.
Confirm that connection terminals are secure and clean. If the battery is dirty, or if
any minor amount of acid has spilled onto the case due to loose bayonets, refer to the
cleaning instructions in this manual to properly neutralize and clean as necessary. Wet
pallets or signs of acid leak on or around the batteries could indicate shipping damage
or improperly sealed battery casing. Perform a voltage check to confirm the battery
polarity and marking of the terminals are accurate.
In the event of a suspected leak or damage, do not accept the shipment.
Contact your battery retailer or Rolls Battery to determine whether the batter(ies)
require replacement.
Battery shipments which are known to be damaged, but accepted, will not
be replaced under the terms of Rolls Battery manufacturer warranty.
