72VDC the battery system can still present a risk of electrical
shock. These batteries produce sufficient current to burn wire or
tools very rapidly, producing molten metal. Observe these pre-
cautions when replacing the batteries:
1. Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
2. Use hand tools with insulated handles.
3. Wear protective eye gear (goggles), rubber gloves and boots.
4. Do not lay tools or other metal parts on top of batteries.
5. Disconnect the charging source prior to connecting or discon-
necting the battery terminals.
6. Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If the batt-
ery is, remove the source of the grounding. Contact with any
part of a grounded battery can result in an electrical shock.
The likelihood of such shock will be reduced, if such grounds
are removed during installation and maintenance.
