Introduction
Safety
While the risk of electrical shock is relatively low
when working on a 12 volt electrical system, care
must be taking when working on equipment elec-
trical systems.
Fumes from battery electrolyte are flammable.
Keep all sparks and fires away from the battery.
When charging the battery, explosive fumes are
produced more rapidly. Be sure the room or area
where batteries are being recharged is well venti-
lated.
Battery acid is harmful on contact with the skin
or most materials. If acid contacts the skin, rinse
the affected area with running water for 10 to 15
minutes. If acid contacts the eyes, force the eyelids
open and flush the eyes with running water for 10 to
Electricity plays an important role in modern turf
equipment. Modern 12 volt electrical systems are
used almost exclusively in turf equipment.
The demands on the electrical system include:
starting, lighting and ignition systems. Electrical
circuits control the operation of the machines and
monitor certain machine functions. They enhance
the overall operation and also improve the opera-
tors safety, through various safety circuits. New
methods to control the operation and the function of
the machine are made possible because of electri-
cal devices.
15
minutes. Then see a doctor at once.
To avoid injury from sparks or short circuit, Dis-
connect the negative battery ground cable when
working on any part of the electrical system.
Remove all Jewelry and watches when working
on live circuits.
Injury can result from high temperature caused
when jewelry, rings or watches come in contact with
powered circuits and ground circuits.
When removing batteries always disconnect the
negative battery cable first. When reconnecting the
battery wait until last to connect the negative ca-
ble.
Do not lay tools or parts across the battery, the
metal parts or tools can short across the battery
posts and a fire or explosion can result.
With the use of microprocessor based controls, the
potential of electrical and electronic circuits and
controls will greatly change the ease of operation
and the reliability of current and future equipment.
These new advances in electrical systems will re-
quire a better understanding of electricity and com-
plete electrical systems, to enable technicians to
diagnose and repair these systems.
