glasses to shield your eyes and rubber gloves
to protect your hands.

available for flushing the skin.
2. Keep top of battery clean by washing periodically
with a brush dipped in ammonia or bicarbonate of
soda solution. Flush the top surface with water after
cleaning. Do not remove the fill cap while cleaning.

good electrical contact.
4. If corrosion occurs at terminals, remove battery
cover, disconnect cables, negative (–) cable first and
scrape clamps and terminals separately. Reconnect
cables, positive (+) cable first and coat terminals
with petroleum jelly.
5. Check the electrolyte level every 50 operating hours
or, if machine is in storage, every 30 days.
