CAUTION
• If battery wire terminals are damaged or corroded, replace or clean them as necessary. Failure to do
so may cause them to overheat during operation and could result in a fire, property damage, or
personal injury.
2. The battery should be kept clean and dry to prevent self-discharge. Any dirt, grime or acid spillage should be
removed. Wash the battery with a bristle brush using water and bicarbonate of soda (1 cup (237 mL) baking
soda per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water). Rinse with water. Do not allow solution to enter battery through the vent cap
holes.
See Self-Discharge on page 13-37.
3. Maintain proper water level. See Water Level on page 13-37.
4. Check battery periodically to see that it is in a full state of charge. See Charging the Battery on page 13-39.
5. Keep battery hold-down clamp tight. See Vibration Damage on page 13-38.
SELF-DISCHARGE
Dirt and battery acid can provide a path for a small current draw that slowly discharges the battery. To prevent
self-discharge, the battery should always be kept clean.
Hot weather also has an effect on a battery’s self-discharge rate. The higher the temperature, the quicker a battery will
discharge. In hotter climates, therefore, the battery should be checked more often. When storing the battery, keep in
a cool place.
See Battery Storage on page 13-40.
WATER LEVEL
The water level should be checked semi-annually to be sure water is at its proper level (Figure 13-33, Page 13-37) .
Never allow the water level to fall below the tops of the plates because this will cause the exposed part of the plate to
become permanently inactive. Check the water level more frequently in hot weather or when the battery becomes old.
