PRECAUTION DURING OPERATION SAFETY
36 PW160-7H VEAM390100
WARNING: For reasons of safety, always follow these safety precautions.
BATTERY
BATTERY HAZARD PREVENTION
● Battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid and can quickly
burn the skin and eat holes in clothing. If you spill acid on
yourself, immediately flush the area with water.
● Battery acid could cause blindness if splashed into the eyes.
If acid gets into the eyes, flush them immediately with large
quantities of water and see a doctor at once.
● If you accidentally drink acid, drink a large quantity of water or
milk, beaten egg or vegetable oil. Call a doctor or poison pre-
vention centre immediately.
● When working with batteries. ALWAYS wear safety glasses or
goggles.
● Batteries generate hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is very
EXPLOSIVE, and is easily ignited with a small spark or flame.
● Before working with batteries, stop the engine and turn the
starting switch to the OFF position.
● Avoid short-circuiting the battery terminals through accidental
contact with metallic objects, such as tools, across the termi-
nals.
● When removing or installing, check which is the positive (+)
terminal and negative (-) terminal.
● Tighten the battery cap securely.
● Tighten the battery terminals securely. Loosened terminals
can generate sparks and lead to an explosion.
● When removing battery cap wear rubber groves to prevent
electrolyte contact with skin.
STARTING WITH BOOSTER CABLES
● ALWAYS wear safety glasses or goggles when starting the
machine with booster cables.
● When starting from another machine, do not allow the two
machines to touch.
● Be sure to connect the positive (+) cable first when installing
the booster cables. Disconnect the ground or negative (-)
cable first when removing them.
● If any tool touches between the positive (+) terminal and the
chassis, it will cause sparks. This is dangerous, so be sure to
work carefully.
● Connect the batteries in parallel: positive to positive and neg-
ative to negative.
