Lead-acid batteries contain hazardous materials and must be handled,
transported, and recycled or scrapped in accordance with federal, state,
and local regulations. Since lead is a toxic substance, lead-acid batteries
should be recycled rather than scrapped.
A battery can present a risk of electrical short and high short circuit
current. The following precautions should be observed when working on
or around batteries:
● Remove watches, rings, necklaces, or other metal objects.
● Use only tools with insulated handles.
● Wear rubber insulating gloves and boots.
● Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
● Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or
disconnecting battery terminals.
● Verify that battery cabinets are properly grounded.
Lead-acid batteries can present a risk of fire because they generate
hydrogen gas. The following safety procedures must be followed:
● DO NOT SMOKE when near batteries.
● DO NOT cause flame or sparks in battery areas.
● Discharge static electricity from your body before touching
batteries by first touching a grounded metal surface.
When replacing batteries, use with the same number of batteries, and
same manufacturer, type, and model that was supplied with the unit. To
avoid system failure, replace all batteries if one or more batteries fail to
perform to specifications.
