CORRECT BATTERY POSTS. The black cable should be connected to the
negative (-) post and the red cable to the (+) post. The polarity of your tow
vehicle must also be negative (-) ground since it must always match the
trailer. Most tow vehicles are negative grounded, but always check your vehicle
owner’s manual to be sure.
ADD WATER TO CELLS AS NECESSARY. Check the electrolyte level at least
once a month. When you are traveling steadily and for an extended period of
time, or if you are in climates above 90 degrees F, check the electrolyte level
about every two weeks.
DangEr:
When checking or filling the electrolyte level in the
batteries, do not allow battery electrolyte to contact skin, eyes, fabric, or
painted surfaces. The electrolyte is a sulfuric acid solution, which could
cause serious personal injury or damage to the trailer. Wear complete
splash proof goggles and clothing protection when working with batter-
ies. Avoid touching your eyes while working near batteries.
NOTE: Do not fill battery above the split ring in filler opening. DO NOT MEASURE
SPECIFIC GRAVITY IMMEDIATELY after adding water. The water must mix with
the electrolyte by charging or by driving a few miles.
Some situations, which may indicate a need for battery replacement, are:
1. Loss of more water in one cell than others.
2. Continuous loss of water in all cells-perhaps accompanied by overheating or
extreme gassing and bubbling.
3. A marked difference in the specific gravity reading between cells.
DangEr
: The gases generated within a storage battery cell may
be ignited by an open flame or spark in the vicinity of the battery. Do not
use a match or flame to provide light for checking the level of the water.
During the winter the battery should be removed from the trailer and stored in
a cool, dry place, where there is no danger of freezing. It should be kept full of
water, cleaned and charged monthly. A battery that is allowed to completely
lose its charge will never regain its original power or a full charge.
Remove the battery from its container.
For battery service or replacement, go to any service station or dealer who sells
and services the make battery installed in your trailer.
