Recommended Battery
Be careful not to connect the battery in reverse polarity, as this will
short circuit the battery charging system. Always connect the
positive (+) battery cable to the battery terminal before connecting
the negative (–) battery cable, so your tools cannot cause a short
circuit if they touch a grounded part while tightening the positive
(+) battery cable end.
• Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and
lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.
1. Connect the battery positive (+) cable to the starter solenoid
terminal as shown.
2. Connect the battery negative (–) cable to an engine mounting
bolt, frame bolt, or other good engine ground connection.
3. Connect the battery positive (+) cable to the battery positive
(+) terminal as shown.
4. Connect the battery negative (–) cable to the battery negative
(–) terminal as shown.
5. Coat the terminals and cable ends with grease.
