
NOTE: At this point if the meter
reads as specified, the battery may
be returned to service (see step 9).
6. If the meter reads less than specified
voltage, charge the battery using the
following guidelines.
A. When using an automatic battery
charger, always follow the char-
ger manufacturer’s instructions.
B. When using a constant-current
battery charger, use the follow-
ing Battery Charging Chart.

NOTE: If the battery voltage is 11.5
DC Volts or less, some chargers may
“cut off” and fail to charge. If this
occurs, connect a fully charged
booster battery in parallel (positive to
positive and negative to negative) for
a short period of time with the charger
connected. After 10-15 minutes, dis-
connect the booster battery leaving
the charger connected and the char-
ger should continue to charge. If the
charger “cuts off,” replace the battery.
7. After charging the battery for the
specified time, remove the battery
charger and allow the battery to sit
for 1-2 hours.
8. Connect the multimeter and test the
battery voltage. The meter should
read no less than 12.5 DC Volts. If
the voltage is as specified, the bat-
tery is ready for service.

NOTE: If voltage in step 8 is below
specifications, charge the battery an
additional 1-5 hours; then retest. The
battery is ready for service.
9. Place the battery into position in the
snowmobile; then coat the battery
posts and cable ends with a light
coat of multi-purpose grease.
10. Secure the red positive cable to the
positive terminal on the battery
using a cap screw, lock washer, and
a flat washer. Tighten securely.
11. Secure the main black negative
cable and the small black negative
cable to the battery using a cap
screw, lock washer, and a flat
washer. Tighten securely.

NOTE: Assure the harness wires and
cables are routed properly as noted
during removing battery procedure.
