Caution: This generator must have a battery installed for operation. The battery is used during starting and during operation. If engine operation is attempted while the battery is removed, damage to the engine’s electrical components may result.

Battery Connections AE8, AE10, AE11, and AE25. The generator is shipped with no battery installed.

WARNING: Installation and servicing of batteries is to be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries.

WARNING: Do not dispose of battery or batteries in a fire. The battery is capable of exploding. If the battery explodes, electrolyte solution will be released in all directions. Battery electrolyte solution is caustic and can cause severe burns and blindness. If electrolyte contacts skin or eyes, immediately flush the area with water and seek medical attention quickly.

WARNING: Do not mutilate the battery . The battery contains electrolyte solution which is caustic and can cause severe burns and blindness. If electrolyte contacts skin or eyes, immediately flush the area with water and seek medical attention quickly.

WARNING: A battery presents a risk of electrical shock hazard and high short circuit current. The following precautions are to be followed when working on batteries:

1.Remove watches, rings, necklaces and all other metal objects.

2.Use tools with insulated handles.

3.Wear rubber gloves and boots.

WARNING: The battery electrolyte is a dilute sulfuric acid that is harmful to the skin and eyes. It is electrically conductive and corrosive.

The following precautions are to be followed when working on batteries:

1.Wear full eye protection (safety glasses or goggles) and protective clothing.

2.Where electrolyte contacts the skin, flush the area immediately with water and wash it off using soap and water.

3.Where electrolyte contacts the eyes, immediately flush the eye thoroughly with water and seek medical attention quickly.

4.Spilled electrolyte is to be washed down with an acid neutralizing agent. A common practice is to use a solution of one pound (500 grams) bicarbonate of soda to one gallon (four liters) of water. The bicarbonate solution is to be added until evidence of reaction (foaming) has ceased. The resulting liquid is to be flushed with water and the area dried.

WARNING: A battery presents a risk of fire because they generate hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is extremely explosive. Never jump start a battery, smoke in the area around the battery or cause any spark to occur in the area around the battery.

The following precautions are to be followed when working on batteries:

1.Do not smoke when near batteries.

2.Do not cause flame or spark in battery area.

3.Discharge static electricity from body before touching batteries by first touching a grounded metal surface.

WARNING: Disconnect the battery’s ground terminal before working in the vicinity of the battery or battery wires. Contact with the battery can result in electrical shock when a tool accidently touches the positive battery terminal or wire. The risk of such shock is reduced when the ground lead is removed during installation and maintenance.

Procedure: The correct type battery must be installed in the battery compartment provided, see Table 3-5. Installation and servicing of batteries is to be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions.

Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries.

1.Open access doors and locate battery tray.

2.Place the correct battery (see Table 3-5) on the tray.

3.Install the Battery Hold Down Bar and Rods as shown in Figure 3-12.

a.Place the bent end of the Battery Hold Down Rod through the hole in the Battery Tray.

b.Place the threaded end of the Battery Hold Down Rod through the hole in the Battery Hold Down Bar and secure with flat washer, lock washer and nut.

c.Repeat steps 3a and 3b for the other Battery Hold Down Rod.
