Battery Inspection
Always recycle batteries in accordance with local laws
and regulations. Contact your local solid waste collection
site or recycling facility to obtain information on local
recycling processes. For more information on battery
recycling, visit the Battery Council International website
at:
http://batterycouncil.org
NOTE: Remove the 5 amp controller fuse from control
panel.
An authorized operator should inspect the engine battery
monthly. At this time, the battery fluid level should be
checked using a load tester and distilled water added if
needed. Battery cables and connections should also be
inspected for cleanliness and corrosion.
A GMP ASD should inspect the battery system once
every six months. At this time, the battery condition and
state of charge should be checked using a load test bat-
tery. Recharge or replace the battery as required.
Battery service is to be performed or supervised by per-
sonnel knowledgeable of batteries and the required pre-
cautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away.
Observe the following precautions when working on bat-
teries:
• Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
• Use tools with insulated handles.
• Wear rubber gloves and boots.
• Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of battery.
• Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or
disconnecting battery terminals.
NOTE: Wash spilled electrolyte down with an acid neu-
tralizing agent. A common practice is to use a solution of
1 lb (454 g) bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) to 1 gal
(3.8 L) of water. Add the bicarbonate of soda solution
until the evidence of reaction (foaming) has ceased.
Flush the resulting liquid with water.
NOTE: Discharge static electricity before touching the
battery by first touching a grounded metal surface.
Battery Installation and Replacement
When required, the battery must be replaced with one of
equivalent size, voltage, and CCA (cold crank amp
capacity). Contact a GMP ASD for correct battery size. A
new battery must be filled with the proper electrolyte and
be fully charged before install.
Battery cables are connected to the unit at the factory.
Proceed as follows to connect cables to battery posts.
