Caring for the Battery
WARNING
•
Wear safety goggles and rubber gloves when working with
electrolyte.
•
Charge battery in a well ventilated place so gasses produced
while charging can dissipate.
•
Since the gases are explosive, keep open flames and electrical
sparks away from the battery; do not smoke.
•
Nausea may result if the gases are inhaled.
•
Unplug charger from electrical outlet before connecting or
disconnecting charger leads to or from battery posts.
1. When using a maintainable battery, the battery-electrolyte must be kept at
the proper level.
2. The top of the battery must be kept clean.
3. If the machine is stored in a location where the temperatures are extremely
high, the battery will discharge more rapidly than if the machine is stored in a
location where the temperatures are cool.
4. Check battery condition weekly or after every 50 hours of operation. Keep
terminals and entire battery case clean because a dirty battery will discharge
slowly.
IMPORTANT
Do not remove fill caps while cleaning.
A. Clean battery by washing entire case with a solution of baking soda and
water. Rinse with clear water.
B. Coat battery posts and cable connectors with Toro Part No. 107-0392
battery terminal protector or petroleum jelly to prevent corrosion.
WARNING
Connecting the cables to the wrong battery post could result in
personal injury and/or damage to the electrical system.
Ensure that the cables are properly connected to the correct battery
posts before operating the machine.
5. Tighten the battery cables on the battery terminals to provide a good
electrical contact.
6. If corrosion occurs at the battery terminals, disconnect the battery cables.
Always disconnect the negative (-) cable first. Clean the cable clamps and
terminals separately. Connect the battery cables. Always connect the
positive (+) cable first. Apply a coating of Toro Part No. 107-0392 battery
