5.10.2. AUTOMATIC RESET CIRCUIT BREAKER
Electric circuits are protected by automatic reset circuit breakers mounted on the underside of the
instrument panel. In the event of a short circuit or ground, the circuit breaker will open and close
until trouble clears or is corrected. The circuit breaker will then return and stay in its normal closed
position.
5.10.3. BATTERIES
General
Batteries can only be charged using receptacle located close to the engine on the left hand side of
the machine. The receptacle can also be used to connect additional source of supply, e.g. for
engine starting. This receptacle can also be used to connect additional source of power to start the
engine under extreme conditions.
Fig. 5.11. Location of Batteries
A machine is equipped with two 12-volt battery. They are located in L.H. fender. Access is
provided upon removal of three bolts and lifting the cover.
Never allow a battery to stand on concrete, ground or a metal support unless proper insulation is
provided. A wooden platform or board is a sufficient insulation. Be sure the battery in a machine is
fastened securely to avoid damage from vibration.
WARNING! A battery gives off highly flammable gas. Never allow sparks, open
flame or lighted smoking material near the battery. Avoid spilling any electrolyte
on hands or clothing. Always wear safety glasses when working on
a battery.
WARNING! Never check a battery charge by placing a metal object across the
terminals. The sparks could cause a battery explosion. Use a voltmeter or
hydrometer to measure the charge.
WARNING! Be sure the electric system master switch is off when connecting or
disconnecting a battery to minimize the chance of sparks and explosion.
