UNIT, DIRECT SUPPORT AND GENERAL SUPPORT MAINTENANCE MANUAL



WARNING
LEAD-ACID BATTERIES CONTAIN SULFURIC ACID WHICH CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear safety goggles, face shield, and gloves.
If battery electrolyte is spilled, take immediate action to stop its corrosive (burning) effects:
EXTERNAL: Flush with cold water to remove all acid.
EYES: Flush with cold water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention at once.
INTERNAL: Drink large amounts of water or milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or
vegetable oil. Get medical attention at once.
CLOTHING OR VEHICLE: Wash at once with cold water. Neutralize with baking soda or
household ammonia solution.
WARNING
Lead-acid battery gases can explode. Do not smoke, have open flames, other ignition sources, or
make sparks around a battery, especially if the caps are off. If a battery is gassing, it can explode and
cause injury to you.
WARNING
Nickel-cadmium batteries (vented or sealed) will not be permitted in a lead-acid battery shop. They
will not be transported or stored with lead-acid batteries.
WARNING
Electrolyte and battery corrosion (Greenish/White) can cause injury to you. Wear safety goggles, face
shield, and gloves. If for any reason electrolyte or battery corrosion (greenish/White) contacts the eyes,
skin, or clothing, flush immediately with large amounts of cold water. In case of eye or skin contact, see
a doctor immediately.
WARNING
Do not use metal or galvanized equipment when draining electrolyte from lead-acid batteries,
electrolyte will damage equipment.
For the best performance do use the standard electrolyte used in the 6TL battery in the 6TLFP, use
only the overpacked electrolyte.
WARNING
Do not use open and sealed lead-acid batteries together in one set of batteries. May cause an
explosion and result in injury to personnel. Also, do not charge sealed and lead-acid batteries together.
