Inspection of the battery
To ensure safe use of the battery, inspect it at
least once a month.
Before inspecting the battery, be sure to stop
the engine and remove the key.
Danger Danger
Do not allow anyone to handle the battery who
does not fully understand the correct battery
handling procedures and relevant dangers.
When handling the battery, wear protective
glasses and rubber gloves, etc. The
electrolyte may cause blindness or burns.
Never use an open flame when inspecting the
battery.
Do not connect the positive and negative
battery terminals to each other using a
metallic tool etc.
Doing so could cause a fire or explosion.
Always keep the electrolyte level above the
LOWER (minimum level line) limit.
Failure to do so could cause the battery life to
be shortened or cause explosion.
Loose connections between cable and
terminal, or corroded terminals could cause a
fire or explosion.
Warning
Before handling the battery such as for
purposes of inspection etc, touch a metal part
of the machine body with your bare hand in
order to remove static electricity.
Static electricity could cause a fire.
When cleaning the battery, do not use dry
cloth or tissue paper, etc.
Static electricity could cause a fire.
When adding distilled water, keep the
electrolyte level below the UPPER (maximum
level line) limit.
Failure to do so could cause the electrolyte to
leak.
Caution
If the electrolyte overflows from the battery,
wipe it with a wet cloth.
Failure to do so could cause damage to the
instruments.
When cleaning the battery, do not use organic
solvents such as benzene, thinner or gasoline
and refrain from using cleaner, or chemical
cloth.
Doing so could damage the battery case,
resulting in electrolyte leaks.
Do not add anything but distilled water to the
battery.
Adding anything other than distilled water
could cause the battery to become extremely
hot or generate toxic gases due to impurities.
Do not add sulfuric acid to the battery.
Doing so could cause the specific gravity of
the electrolyte to exceed the specified value,
causing the battery life to be shortened.
After adding distilled water to the battery,
firmly tighten the vent plug.
When inspecting the battery, inspect the
following items:
Visual inspection
Visually inspect the battery case for cracks,
chips and deformation, and check that
there are no electrolyte leaks.
If any of the above are found, investigate
what has caused them and replace the
battery.
Cleaning of the exterior
When cleaning the battery, use cloth that
has been dampened with water.
Inspect the vent plug or vent hole on the
side.
If the plug or hole is clogged with mud etc.,
wash it with water.
A clogged vent hole could cause the
internal pressure to increase due to gases
generated inside the battery, causing the
battery to burst.
Inspection of the mounting bracket
Ensure that the battery is firmly secured by
the mounting bracket. 1.
