BATTERIES CONTAIN ACID AND EXPLOSIVE
GAS. EXPLOSION CAN RESULT FROM
SPARKS, FLAMES, OR WRONG CABLE CON-
NECTIONS. TO CONNECT JUMPER CABLES
OR CHARGER, SEE MANUAL(S) FOR THE
CORRECT PROCEDURE. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS CAN
CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH.
Battery Cables and Terminals
The battery terminals must be kept
clean and tight. A good method to
clean terminals is to use Battery
Saver. If Saver is not available,
remove all corrosion with a wire
brush, then wash with a weak
solution of baking soda or ammonia.
Put some petroleum jelly or light
grease on terminals to prevent
corrosion.
Removal and Installation of Battery
To remove the battery disconnect the battery cables and remove the
battery bracket. When the battery is installed, make sure the cables are
installed on the correct terminals. This is a 12 volt, negative ground
electrical system and must be so connected.
NOTE:
When disconnecting the battery, remove the negative cable first
from the battery and reconnect it last for safety reasons.
IMPORTANT:
Do not start or operate the engine with the electrical
system not completely connected.
