Section 8
DO NOT make or break electrical circuits at the battery terminals;
a spark will occur when a live circuit is opened or made. Turn off all
components.
Use a voltmeter or hydrometer to check the battery charge
condition.
The battery cables should be removed from the battery when the
boat is placed in storage, on display or in transit. This will eliminate
the possibility of the engine accidentally starting without a supply of
cooling water and may damage the engine.
+ = red positive (A)
- = black negative (not shown)
To clean your battery, remove and wash down the battery case with
a diluted ammonia or baking soda/water solution to neutralize the
acid, then flush with fresh water. Keep the fill/vent caps tight so the
neutralizing solution does not get into the battery cells.
The electrolyte level should be checked every 30 days. Add only
distilled water to maintain the level between the top of the plates
and the bottom of the fill/vent cap. DO NOT overfill. Remember
batteries contain sulfuric acid which can cause severe burns.
