AILED MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Your AMERICAN IRONHORSE battery is a heavy duty model to provide the adequate power needed to
start your high horsepower engine. Replacement batteries should always be the same as original equipment
as indicated in “AMERICAN IRONHORSE Consumable Table.”
WARNING:
• DO NOT TIP BATTERY; OVERFLOW MAY DAMAGE OTHER VEHICLE PARTS AND POSSIBLY CREATE
PERSONAL INJURY RISKS.
• ENSURE THAT BATTERY CONNECTIONS ARE TIGHT, CLEAN AND COATED WITH A LIGHT COVERING OF
PETROLEUM JELLY TO RETARD CORROSION.
Batteries exhibit certain characteristics of note.
• If a battery sits for long periods of time, it will gradually lose its charge. If this condition persists, a battery
may be permanently damaged and be unable to ever properly hold a charge and function properly again. A
similar situation can occur if the internal battery plates remain uncovered by electrolyte for extended
periods.
• If long-term storage is required, it is recommended that the battery be in a fully charged condition, removed
from the vehicle and stored in a cool dry place. The battery should be recharged before reinserting it into
the vehicle after periods of idle storage. Owners who store their motorcycles for long periods and/or store
the motorcycle in cold areas should consider battery maintenance devices such as “tenders”.
• A properly changed battery will display in excess of 13VDC.
• Battery fluids can freeze at low temperatures. This can result in lowered battery life or failure. Always
ensure that your battery is protected from freezing temperatures. Batteries in a low charge condition are
more susceptible to freezing.
