Electrical System

• Always stop the engine and remove the ignition key when servicing the
electrical system.
• Shock hazard. Do not handle the electrical components with wet hands.

Battery

• Never charge a battery when the fluid level is below the "lower level" line.
Charging a battery with insufficient fluid may shorten the battery life or cause
an explosion.
• Battery fluid (diluted sulfic acid) is corrosive and causes severe burns. Be
extremely cautious when handling battery fluid. If battery fluid is spilt on
clothes, immediately rinse with plenty of water. If spilt on skin or in an eye,
immediately rinse with plenty of water and promptly consult a physician.
• Explosion hazard. Keep open flame or spark away from the battery. Hydrogen
gas generated during charging is extremely explosive.
• Never fill battery fluid beyond "upper level" line. Battery fluid may spill and
cause damage to the machine or injury to person.
• Always disconnect the (-) terminal first, and connect the (+) terminal first.
When connecting, connect the (+) terminal first, then connect the (-) terminal.
Disconnecting or connecting in the wrong order may cause a short circuit.
• When installing a battery, make certain to connect the (+) and (-) terminals
to their original positions. Avoid contact between the terminals and other
surrounding parts.
• Use wet cloth to clean battery. Dry cloth may generate static electricity, which
may cause explosion.
