• Check the battery fluid level daily, espe-
cially if the work platform is being used
in a warm, dry climate.
• If the electrolyte level is lower than 3/8
in. (10 mm) above the plates, add dis-
tilled water only. DO NOT use tap water
with high mineral content, as it will
shorten battery life.
• The battery and cables should be
inspected regularly for signs of cracks
in the case, electrolyte leakage and
corrosion of the terminals. Inspect
cables for worn spots or breaks in the
insulation and for broken cable termi-
nals. Keep terminals and tops of batter-
ies clean.
• Refer to the Service Manual to extend battery life and for complete service instructions.
