Battery

Before servicing the battery or electrical

system, disconnect the negative battery cable

from the negative battery terminal and tie the cable away from the

negative battery terminal to prevent sparking and accidental re-con-

nection. Alternately, if the machine is equipped with the optional bat-

tery disconnect switch, turn the battery disconnect switch to the

“OFF” position.

Refer to “Electrical System” on page 38 for battery specifications. To access the

battery, tilt the platform. See “Tilting the Platform” on page 107.

The battery top must be kept clean. Clean it with an alkaline solution (ammonia

or baking soda and water). After foaming has stopped, wipe the battery top with a

damp towel. Clean corrosion from terminals and cable connection by discon-

necting the cables and cleaning the terminals and clamps with the same alkaline

solution. Thoroughly dry the battery and cables using a clean towel.

Explosive gas is produced while a battery is in

use or being charged. Keep flames or sparks

away from the battery area. ALWAYS charge the battery in a well-

ventilated area.

Never lay a metal object on top of a battery, because a short circuit

can result.

Battery acid is harmful to skin and fabrics. If acid spills, follow these

first-aid tips:

1. Immediately remove any clothing on which acid spill.

2. If acid contacts skin, rinse the affected area with running water

for 10 to 15 minutes.

3. If acid contacts eyes, flood eyes with running water for 10 to 15

minutes. See a doctor at once. Never use any medication or

eye drops unless prescribed by the doctor.

4. To neutralize battery acid spills, use one of the following

mixtures:

a. 0.5 kg (1 lbs.) of baking soda in 4 L (4 qts.) of water

b. 0.5 L (0.5 qts.) of household ammonia in 4 L (4 qts.) of

water

When removing the battery, disconnect the negative (-) battery cable

first and re-connect it last during installation.
