Battery
your mower is equipped with a maintenance free
battery and does not need servicing. However,
periodic charging of the battery with an automotive
type battery charger will extend its life.
• Keep battery and terminals clean.
• Keep battery bolts tight.
• See chart for charging times.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Do not attempt to open or remove caps or
covers. Adding or checking level of electrolyte
is not necessary.
Always use two wrenches for the terminal
screws.
WARNING!
Do not short battery terminals by
allowing a wrench or any other object to
contact both terminals at the same time.
Before connecting battery, remove metal
bracelets, wristwatch bands, rings, etc.
Positive terminal must be connected
first to prevent sparks from accidental
grounding.
