3. If Battery is not filled with electrolyte or activated,
bulk electrolyte with 1.260 specific gravity must be
purchased from a local battery supply outlet and
added to battery.
4. Remove filler caps from battery and slowly fill each
cell until electrolyte is just above the plates.
5. Replace filler caps and connect a 3 to 4 amp
battery charger to the battery posts. Charge the battery
at a rate of 3 to 4 amperes for 4 to 8 hours.
Wear safety goggles and rubber gloves
when working with electrolyte. Charge the
battery in a well ventilated place so gasses
produced while charging can dissipate.
Since the gases are explosive, keep open
flames and electrical spark away from the
battery; do not smoke. Nausea may result
if the gases are inhaled. Unplug charger
from electrical outlet before connecting to
or disconnecting charger leads from bat
tery posts.
CAUTION
6. When battery is charged, disconnect charger from
electrical outlet and battery posts.
7. Remove filler caps. Slowly add electrolyte to each
cell until level is up to fill ring. Install filler caps.
IMPORTANT: Do not overfill battery. Electrolyte will
overflow onto other parts of the machine and
severe corrosion and deterioration will result.
8. Install the positive cable (red) to the positive (+)
terminal and the negative cable (black) to the negative
() terminal of the battery and secure with capscrews
and nuts. Make sure positive (+) terminal is all the way
onto post and cable is positioned snug to battery.
Cable must not contact battery cover. Slide the rubber
boot over the positive terminal to prevent possible
short-out from occurring.
WARNING
Connecting cables to the wrong post
could result in personal injury and/or
damage to the electrical system.
