Battery

• Never charge battery when the fluid level is below "lower level" line. Charging
battery with insufficient fluid may shorten battery life or cause an explosion.
• Battery fluid (diluted sulfic acid) is corrosive and causes severe burns. Be
extremeley 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 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 machine or injury to person.

or connecting in the opposite order may cause a short circuit.
• When installing battery, make certain to connect (+) and (-) terminals to their
original positions. Avoid contact between terminals and other surrounding
parts.
• Use wet cloth to clean battery. Dry cloth may generate static electricity, which
may cause explosion.
