Battery Maintenance and Safety Practices

ENSURE THAT BATTERY ACID DOES NOT COME INTO CONTACT
WITH SKIN OR CLOTHING. WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND
EYEWEAR WHEN WORKING WITH BATTERIES. NEUTRALIZE ANY
BATTERY ACID SPILLS WITH BAKING SODA AND WATER.

TOBACCO PRODUCTS IN THE AREA WHILE CHARGING BATTER-
IES. CHARGE BATTERIES ONLY IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA.
ADD ONLY DISTILLED WATER TO BATTERIES. ADD WATER TO
BATTERIES AFTER CHARGING TO AVOID ELECTROLYTE OVER-
FLOW.
8-2
DO NOT REPLACE ITEMS CRITICAL TO STABILITY, SUCH AS
BATTERIES, WITH ITEMS OF DIFFERENT WEIGHT OR SPECIFI-
CATION. DO NOT MODIFY UNIT IN ANY WAY TO AFFECT STABIL-
ITY.
Electrolyte Level:
Check the electrolyte level of the batteries often and add
only distilled water when required:
1. Open access door to the battery compartment.
2. Check proper electrolyte level after charge using the
floats (1) in the center of each cell filling cap.
3. Fill the can (2) with distilled water.
4. Depress and hold the push button (3) to activate the
filling pump. Release the button when the flow indi-
cator (4) slows down.
5. Check for proper level in each cell (float on each
cell's cap). Actuate the filling pump again if some
cells show improper level.
Battery Cleaning:
• Regularly clean and dry battery top.
• Ensure all connections are clean and correctly tight.
• Coat terminals with a silicone dielectric compound.
