2.11.1RESTARtiNG
If trying to restartthe enginewithin 10 seconds after it shutsdown,
the engine may NOT start. The system needs5 to 10 secondsto
reset.
If the engine is restarted after such a shutdown and the low oil
pressure has not been corrected, the engine will run for about 10
seconds as describedabove and then stop.
2.12 CHARGING THEBATTERY (XG700OE
&XGBOOOE)
Do not permit smoking, open flame, sparks or
any other source of heat around a battery. Wear
protective goggles, rubber apron and rubber
gloves when working
around a battery. Battery
electrolyte fluid is an extremely corrosive
sulfuric acid solution that can cause severe
burns. If spill occurs flush area with clear water
immediately.
Storage batteries
give off explosive
hydrogen
gas while recharging. An explosive mixture will
remain around the battery for a long time after
it has been charged. The slightest spark can
ignite the hydrogen and cause an explosion.
Such an explosion
can shatter the battery and
cause blindness
or other serious injury.
Use batterycharger plug to keepthe battery chargedand ready
for use. Batterycharging should be done in a dry location.
