Can anyone help? We need a snapshot on safely optimizing a start-battery's physical location in a diesel-powered excavator. Our concerns are out-gassing, shorting due to dirt and/or debris build-ups, normal maintenance/replacement issues, et cetera. Are there OSHA, IEC, ANSI, IOS standards that apply or is this another of the ambiguous (gray) areas?

Thank you in advance for your help .... RLH457
