7.7 Battery

WARNING

Lead-acid batteries produce flammable and explosive gases. To avoid personal injury when checking, testing or charging batteries, DO NOT use smoking materials near batteries. Keep arcs, sparks and flames away from batteries. Provide proper ventilation and wear safety glasses.

WARNING

Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

A. Charging the Battery

Refer to the battery charger’s manual for specific instructions.

Under normal conditions the engine’s alternator will have no problem keeping a charge on the battery. If the battery has been completely discharged for a long period of time, the alternator may not be able to recharge the battery, and a battery charger will be required.

DO NOT charge a frozen battery. It may explode and cause injury. Let the battery warm before attaching a charger.

Whenever possible, remove the battery from the mower before charging and make sure the electrolyte covers the plates in all cells.

WARNING

BATTERIES PRODUCE EXPLOSIVE GASES. Charge the battery in a well ventilated space so gases produced while charging can dissipate.

WARNING

Electric storage battery fluid contains sulfuric acid which is POISON and can cause SEVERE CHEMICAL BURNS. Avoid contact of fluid with eyes, skin, or clothing. Use proper protective gear when handling batteries. DO NOT tip any battery beyond 45° angle in any direction. If fluid contact does occur, follow first aid suggestions below.

BATTERY ELECTROLYTE FIRST AID

External Contact — Flush with water.

Eyes — Flush with water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention immediately.

Internal — Drink large quantities of water. Follow with Milk Of Magnesia, beaten egg, or vegetable oil. Get medical attention immediately. In case of internal contact, DO NOT give fluids that would induce vomiting.

Charging rates between 3 and 50 amperes are satisfactory if excessive gassing or spewing of electrolyte does not occur or the battery does not feel excessively hot (over 125°F). If spewing or gassing occurs or the temperature exceeds 125°F, the charging rate must be reduced or temporarily stopped to permit cooling.

B. Jump Starting

1.The booster battery must be a 12 volt type. If a vehicle is used for jump starting, it must have a negative ground system.

2.When connecting the jumper cables, connect the positive cable to the positive battery post, then connect the negative cable to the negative battery post.
