4.2.2 Install battery
The battery that is to be installed in the truck must be of the right size. A 
battery that is too small in terms of size and weight can seriously affect 
the truck's braking ability and stability when lifting. See the truck's data 
plate for correct information about the battery.
1. Lift the battery into place using an approved lifting device and a 
suitable battery yoke or lifting straps.
DANGER!
The battery may fall when the lifting device is loosened if it has not 
been secured with an axle stand or other similar suspension gear of 
the right height. Check the height of your suspension gear before 
loosening the lifting yoke.
2. Check the electrolyte level in the battery. This should normally be 
10-15 mm above the cell plates.
3. Connect the battery cables/battery sleeve.
DANGER!
Always check that you have the right polarity when connecting the 
battery cables. Compare the markings on the cables with the 
markings on the battery terminals. A wrongly connected battery may 
cause a short circuit.
4. Close the battery lid.
5. Put the battery connector back.
6. Check or enter the parameters for the battery and battery charger. 
See the section Adjusting battery and battery charger parameters 
in this chapter.
7. Function test the truck before using it.
