BATTERY CONNECTION Battery Requirement for SLX 47: 650 cranking amps Batteries contain sulfuric acid; avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Batteries also produce explosive hydrogen gases while charging. To prevent explosion or fire, charge batteries in a well-ventilated area only. Keep sparks, open flames, and any other sources of ignition away from batteries at all times.
Cleaning effectiveness and equipment life is increased when water softeners are used in hard water areas. The low cost of water softeners is more than made up for by the increased life of machine parts and cleaning efficiency. Cleanco requires that all machines operating in “hard water” areas (3.0 grains or more per gallon) be fitted with a water softening system.
