Battery Care
How to Get Maximum Battery Life
1. Follow normal battery maintenance procedures, re-charging be-
fore 80% discharged and with periodic equalizing charges.
2. Don’t add acid to a battery. Only a person trained and qualifi ed
to do battery maintenance should determine if this is necessary.
3. Lift battery only with a correctly-constructed lifting device that will
not put pressure on the battery case.
4. Keep
open
fl ames, tools, and metal objects away from the top of
battery to prevent short circuits and explosions.
5. Do not overcharge.
6. Check the battery electrolyte level after each charging. Add water
if the top of the separator or plates are visible. Do not overfi ll!
7. Keep the battery clean and dry. Wash down as needed.
8. Keep battery service records.
Battery Installation
1. Use only a lead-acid battery with the voltage and ampere-hour
rating specifi ed for the truck.
2. When changing batteries on battery electric trucks, replacement
batteries must be of the service weight that falls within the mini-
mum/ maximum range specifi ed on truck nameplate.
3. Handle battery only with approved lifting device.
4. Install the battery correctly in the truck and secure it in position.
IMPORTANT
Some trucks are equipped with battery stops or blocks. Oth-
ers do not require them. If the truck being serviced has bat-
tery stops or blocks, be sure none are missing or damaged.
Replace them as necessary. If they are an adjustable type, be
sure they are correctly adjusted and tightened.
