Instructions concerning specific components
Cables, bulbs and fuses
•
Defective components of the electrical system must always be replaced by authorized
technicians, except that bulbs and fuses may be changed by other persons
•
When carrying out maintenance work on the electrical system, pay particular attention
to ensuring good contact in connections and fuses
•
Blown fuses indicate overloading or short circuits. The electrical system must therefore
be checked before installing the new fuse
•
Only use fuses with the specified capacity (amperage) – see Electrical system on
page 7-5
Alternator
Always observe the following instructions:
•
Only test the engine with the battery connected
•
When connecting the battery, ensure that the poles are not reversed
•
Always disconnect the battery before carrying out welding work or connecting a quick
battery charger
•
Replace a defective charge warning light as quickly as possible
Battery
NOTE:
The battery is located in the engine compartment, on the left side.
Even so-called “maintenance-free” batteries must undergo maintenance, because
they too consume water.
Always follow the specific safety instructions!
☞
Observe the following instructions to ensure a long battery service life:
•
Keep the surface of the battery in clean and dry condition
•
Check the acid level at regular intervals and if necessary, fill up with demineralized or
distilled water. Never fill up with acid!
Check the regulator voltage of the machine in case of increased loss of water
•
Do not use so-called battery improving compounds
•
Check the battery charge condition by measuring the acid density.
(Exception: In the case of closed batteries by measuring the off-load voltage)
NOTE:
Recharge the disconnected battery if specific gravity is below 1.21. At this level the
battery will freeze only at temperatures below 5 °F ( –15 °C).
