Battery
Danger!
Battery acid is highly caustic!
Danger of caustic injury!
Therefore when recharging and/or working near the battery:
☞ Always wear goggles and protective clothing with long sleeves
If acid is spilt:
☞ Thoroughly rinse all affected surfaces immediately with plenty of water
☞ Thoroughly wash any part of the body touched by the acid immediately with
plenty of water and seek medical attention at once!
Especially when charging batteries, as well as during normal operation of
batteries, an oxyhydrogen mixture is formed in the battery cells –
Danger of explosion!
The battery contains sulphuric acid! This acid must not be allowed to come into
contact with the skin, the eyes, clothing or the machine.
☞ Avoid naked lights and sparks in the vicinity of the battery and do not
smoke!
☞ Do not attempt to jump-start the machine if the battery is frozen or if the
acid level is low. The battery can rupture or explode!
• Replace the battery immediately
☞ Always disconnect the negative terminal (–) from the battery before starting
repair work on the electrical system!
Battery A is located on the right in the engine compartment. The battery is “maintenance-
free”. However check the battery at regular intervals to ensure that the electrolyte level is
between the MIN and MAX marks.
The battery must be removed before it can be checked.
Always follow the specific battery safety instructions!
Notice!
• Use only 12 V power sources. Higher voltages will damage the electric compo-
nents.
• When connecting the battery leads, ensure that the poles +/– are not inverted,
otherwise sensitive electric components will be damaged.
• Do not interrupt voltage-carrying circuits at the battery terminals because of the
danger of sparking!
• Never place tools or other conductive articles on the battery – danger of short
circuit!
• Dispose of used batteries properly.
Danger!
Do not disconnect the battery while the engine is running!
