Safety
WARNING: For reasons of safety, always follow these safety precautions

Starting with booster cables

ALWAYS wear safety glasses or goggles when starting the
machine with booster cables.
When starting from another machine, do not allow the two
machines to touch.
Be sure to connect the positive (+) cable first when installing
the booster cables. Disconnect the ground or negative (-)
cable first when removing them.
If any tool touches between the positive (+) terminal and the
chassis, it will cause sparks. This is dangerous, so be sure
to work carefully.
Connect the batteries in parallel between the two machines:
positive to positive and negative to negative.
When connecting the ground cable to the frame of the
machine to be started, be sure to connect it as far away as
possible from the battery.
Starting with booster cables, see "Discharged battery
(3-171)".
