2. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES. A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE THE
RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:
2.1 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery or
engine.
2.2 Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and
watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery
can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring to
metal, causing a severe burn.
2.3 Be extra cautious, to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto the
battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery or other electrical
part that may cause an explosion.
2.4 Do not permit the internal battery of the unit to freeze. Never charge a
frozen battery.
