If the level is low, add distilled water only.
Once the battery has been initially serviced, NEVER
add diluted sulfuric acid, or you will damage the bat-
tery. Follow the battery manufacture’s instructions for
specific maintenance procedures.
BATTERY SOLUTION GRAVITY CHECK
Measure the gravity of battery solution using a hydrometer.
Battery solution gravity : 1.28 at 20°C
