1/4 - 20 70 – 75
(8.0 - 8.5)
60 – 65
(7.0 - 7.5)
5/16 - 18 120 – 125

Make sure that all bolted battery connections are torqued to
the recommended values. The increased resistance of a loose
connection can generate heat and become a fire hazard.
6. Apply a light coat of heated NO-OX-ID grease to the bolted connection with a small
paintbrush in the area of the terminal post only.
