Installing the Battery (continued)
1. Ensure that the key switch and all accessories are in the O
FF
position.
2. Ensure that the battery tray is clean and install the battery and retainer.
3. Ensure that all the battery terminals, battery cables and battery hold down
components are in good condition.
4. Connect the positive (+) cable connector onto the positive (+) battery terminal.
5. Connect a digital multimeter (set to A) between the negative (-) battery post
and the negative (-) cable connector. Ensure that the reading is less than
0.1 A. A reading of more than 0.1 A usually indicates a damaged switch, a
shorted circuit, or grounded wire. Identify and repair the electrical faults
before returning the machine to service.
6. Connect the negative (-) cable connector to the negative (-) battery terminal.
7. After you make the connections, apply battery terminal protector Toro Part
No. 107-0392 or a light layer of petroleum jelly to the battery terminals and
cable connectors to reduce corrosion.
8. Make sure that rubber boot is properly placed over positive cable end and
positive battery post.
9. Install the side cover.
