Mounting the Seat
Note: Mount the seat slides in the front set of mounting
holes to gain an additional 3 in. (7.6 cm) in the forward
adjustment, or in the rear mounting holes for an additional
3 in. (7.6 cm) in the rearward adjustment.
1. Remove the locknuts securing the seat slides to the
plywood shipping base. Discard the locknuts.
2. Connect the wire harness to the seat switch.
3. Secure the seat slides to the seat support with 4 locknuts
(5/16 in.) supplied in the loose parts (Fig. 3).

Activating and Charging the
Battery
Use only electrolyte (1.265 Specific Gravity) to fill battery
initially.
1. Remove the battery from the machine.
Important Do not add electrolyte while the battery is in
the machine. You could spill it, causing corrosion.
2. Clean the top of the battery and remove the vent caps
(Fig. 4).

3. Carefully fill each cell with electrolyte until the plates
are covered with about 1/4 inch (6 mm) of fluid.

4. Allow approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the
electrolyte to soak into the plates. Refill as necessary to
bring the electrolyte to within about 1/4 inch (6 mm) of
the bottom of the fill well (Fig. 5).
Charging the battery produces gasses that can
explode.
Never smoke near the battery and keep sparks and
flames away from battery.
Warning
5. Connect a 3 to 4 amp battery charger to the battery
posts. Charge the battery at a rate of 3 to 4 amps until
the specific gravity is 1.250 or higher and the
temperature is at least 60_F (16_C) with all sells
gassing freely.
6. When the battery is charged, disconnect the charger
from the electrical outlet and battery posts.
