Note: The following page is for vehicles with battery’s containing separate
electrolyte pack.
Preparing the battery:
· Place battery on level surface. Remove cap
strip from top of battery. (see gure 20)
. Wear eye protection and rubber gloves for
this step. Once battery strip is removed,
locate electrolyte in bottle and place over the
six openings. Press rmly down on bottle
allowing the battery to pierce the six in-line
openings in bottle. Let electrolyte drain into
battery until bottle is completely empty. (see
gure 21)
· Discard empty electrolyte container in a waste
area that is inaccessible to children and
animals.
· After lling let battery stand for at least 30
minutes before charging. This allows the
electrolyte to penetrate plates for optimum
performance and ensures longer battery life.
· After 30 minutes the battery is ready for its
initial charge. Place caps loosely over battery
cell holes (see gure 22)
