Lead Acid Batteries
Never add acid to the batteries, only distilled water.
Always keep the battery caps on, except when adding
water or taking hydrometer readings.
Check the electrolyte level in each battery cell before and
after charging, and after every 50 hours of operation. Do
not charge the batteries
unless the fluid is slightly
above the battery plates. If
needed, add just enough
distilled water to cover the
plates. Never add acid
to the batteries. Do not
overfill.
Measuring the specific gravity, using a hydrometer, is a
way to determine the charge level and condition of the
batteries. If one or more of the battery cells test lower
than the other battery cell (0.050 or more), the cell is
damaged, shorted, or is about to fail.
Sealed batteries no additional maintenance required.
CAUTION! When working with batteries, always wear eye
protection and protective clothing.
CAUTION! Batteries emit Hydrogen Gas. NO SMOKING!
CAUTION! Battery damage will occur if the electrolyte
level does not cover the battery plates.
15
CAUTION! Machine and/or battery damage can occur if
the electrolyte level is above the bottom of the tube in each
cell.
CAUTION! Never use tap water to fill battery cells. Tap
water contains contaminants that will damage the battery.
Only use distilled water to fill battery cells.
