Battery Installation
Warning
Make sure the motorcycle is stabilised
and adequately supported.
A correctly supported motorcycle will
help prevent it from falling.
An unstable motorcycle may fall,
causing injury to the operator or
damage to the motorcycle.
Warning
Make sure the battery busbar, positive
and negative terminals do not come
into contact with each other.
Do not reverse the positive (+) or
negative (-) terminals.
Shorting the positive and negative
terminals, may cause the battery to
vent gas at a very high temperature.
Venting high temperature gas will
cause irreparable damage to the
motorcycle and or serious personal
injury or death.
To install the battery:
▼
Fit the battery into the battery case.
▼ Refit the battery strap.
