Do not let tools touch battery and truck or touch between battery terminals. Short circuit

will result which will make tools very hot and can cause arcing which may cause battery to

explode. Failure to observe these precautions could cause serious injury to personnel.

Do not smoke, use open flame, or allow sparks near batteries. The mixture of oxygen

and hydrogen gases released from batteries is highly flammable and can explode

causing serious injury or death.

To reduce the possibility of injury and damage to equipment, disconnect ground cable
