Hazard of explosive gas mixture. Keep sparks,
flame, and smoking material away from batter-
ies.
Always wear safety glasses when working with
batteries.
Battery fluid is highly corrosive. Thoroughly
rinse away any spilled fluid with clean water.
Battery Inspection & Cleaning
Check battery fluid level daily, especially if work plat-
form is being used in a warm, dry climate. If required,
add distilled water ONLY. Use of tap water with high
mineral content will shorten battery life.
The battery and cables should be inspected regularly
for signs of cracks in the case, electrolyte leakage
and corrosion of the terminals. Inspect cables for
worn spots or breaks in the insulation and for broken
cable terminals.
Clean the battery when it shows signs of corrosion at
the terminals or when electrolyte has overflowed dur-
ing charging. Use a baking soda solution to clean the
battery, taking care not to get the solution inside the
cells. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Clean bat-
tery and cable contact surfaces to a bright metal fin-
ish whenever a cable is removed.
