2. PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSIVE
GASES. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY
MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK
NEAR THE BATTERY:
2.1 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame
in the vicinity of a battery or engine.
2.2 Remove personal metal items such as
rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches
when working with a lead-acid battery.
A lead-acid battery can produce a
short-circuit current high enough to weld
a ring or the like to metal, causing a
severe burn.
