WARNING
• To prevent electrolyte leakage from the battery vents, batteries must be kept in an upright
position. Tipping a battery beyond a 45° angle in any direction can allow a small amount of
electrolyte to leak out the vent hole. Do not exceed this 45° angle when lifting, carrying, or
installing batteries. Battery acid can cause severe personal injury to skin or eyes, and can
damage clothing.
1. Before removing batteries, note the orientation of the batteries and the connecting wires. Disconnect the
batteries and discharge the controller.
See Disconnecting The Batteries on page 10-3.
Remove
remaining wires and batteries.
See Wiring Diagrams, Section 11, Page 11-2.
2. Visually inspect the new batteries for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
3. If the battery cables are to be reused, inspect them for broken or frayed wires, damaged terminals, or
worn insulation. Remove any corrosion on the connectors. A solution of baking soda and water (1 cup
(237 mL) baking soda per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water) does an excellent job of neutralizing and removing
the corrosion. Be careful not to allow the baking soda solution to enter the battery.
