Thus, such equipment should notbe used in areas where there are inflammable materials or gases requiring ignition protected equipment.These areas may include spaces containing gasoline powered machinery, fuel tanks, battery compartments.Precautions when working with batteries• Batteries contain very corrosive diluted sulphuric acid as electrolyte. Precautions should be takento prevent contact with skin, eyes or clothing.• Batteries generate hydrogen and oxygen during charging resulting in evolution of explosive gas mixture.Care should be taken to ventilate the battery area and follow the battery manufacturer’srecommendations.• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame near the batteries.• Use caution to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool on the battery. It could spark or short circuitthe battery or other electrical parts and could cause an explosion.• Remove metal items like rings, bracelets and watches when working with batteries. The batteries canproduce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal and thus cause a severeburn.• If you need to remove a battery, always remove the ground terminal from the battery first. Make surethat all the accessories are off so that you do not cause a spark.• Use properly insulated tools only when making battery connections.Precautions when working with solar panelsWith the incidence of sunlight or other light sources on all solar panels, a voltage appears at the outputterminals of the solar panel turning it into a source of electricity.
