SAFETY AND FLOODED BATTERIES

  • Always wear protective clothing, gloves, and goggles when handling batteries

  • If acid contacts your skin or eyes, flush with water immediately

  • Keep flames, sparks, and metal objects away from batteries

  • Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area

  • To avoid short circuits do not lay objects on top of battery

  • Check that all cable connections to the terminal are properly tightened; connections that are too tight or too loose could result in post breakage, meltdown

INSPECTING AND CLEANING FLOODED BATTERIES

  • Keep batteries clean and dry

  • Check that all vent caps are tight

  • Use a solution of baking soda and water to clean flooded lead acid batteries if there is acid residue or corrosion on the terminals

  • Protective spray or petroleum jelly should be applied to terminals to reduce corrosion

STORING FLOODED BATTERIES

  • Batteries should be fully charge prior to and during storage

  • Never store discharged batteries

  • Store batteries in a cool, dry place

  • Recharge batteries before putting them back into service

WATERING FLOODED BATTERIES

  • ADD WATER, NEVER ACID, TO CELLS (Distilled water recommended). DO NOT OVERWATER

  • Before charging the batteries, only add water if the plates are exposed

  • Add just enough water to cover the plates, then charge the batteries

  • Once fully charged, add water to the proper level as indicated below

  • For fully charged standard deep-cycle batteries, add water to level of 1/8" below bottom of vent well (see diagram A)

  • For full charged Plus Series batteries, add water to the maximum water level indicator (see diagram B)

  • After watering, secure vent caps back on batteries

  • For faster, easier and safer battery watering, explore Trojan's Hydrolink Watering System
