SECTION 11—BATTERIES
WARNING
Before performing any maintenance, adjustment or service verify that On/Off
switch on the joystick is in the OFF position.
NEVER allow any of your tools and/or battery cable(s) to contact BOTH battery
terminal(s)/post(s) at the same time. An electrical short may occur and serious
personal injury or damage may occur.
The use of rubber gloves and chemical goggles and face shield is recommended
when working with batteries.
Always use a battery lifting strap when lifting a battery. It is the most convenient
method and assures that the battery acid will not spill. It also helps to prolong the
life of the battery.
DO NOT tip the batteries. Keep the batteries in an upright position.
Invacare strongly recommends that battery installation and battery replacement
always be done by a qualified technician.
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure all attaching
hardware is tightened securely - otherwise injury or damage may result.
Battery terminal configuration shown below MUST be used. Batteries that have the
reversed terminal configuration MUST NOT be used - otherwise serious injury or
damage may occur.
DO NOT remove fuse or mounting hardware from POSITIVE (+) RED battery
cable/mounting screw.
All battery terminal covers (two [2] on the front battery and two [2] on the rear
battery) MUST be installed prior to use.
