DANGER! TRUCK BATTERIES CAN BE DANGEROUS: Your truck battery produces a gas that can explode. It also contains acid that could burn or disfigure you. Do not try to install, remove, charge or service a truck battery unless you are trained and authorized. Never smoke or use an open flame around batteries. Your company should provide an area where it is safe to work on batteries. Use that area for all battery work. Use protective equipment such as gloves, eye shields, aprons, etc.
