BATTERY
Keep cables and terminals clean. Apply a light coat of
petroleum jelly or oil for protection. Check battery bracket
for corrosion and clean.
The battery terminal boot supplied on the positive battery
cable
must
be installed over the battery terminal after the
cable is secured to the positive battery post. This is to
prevent accidental shorting. See Figure 14. ALWAYS
POSITION CABLE TERMINALS AS SHOWN IN FIGURE
14.
ELECTRIC STORAGE BATTERIES GIVE
OFF HIGHLY FLAMMABLE HYDROGEN
GAS WHEN CHARGING, AND CONTINUE
TO DO SO FOR SOME TIME AFTER
RECEIVING A STE ADY CHARGE. DO NOT UNDER
ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ALLOW AN ELECTRIC SPARK
OR AN OPEN FLAME NEAR THE BATTERY. DO NOT
LAY TOOLS ACROSS BATTERY TERMINALS AS THIS
MAY RESULT IN A SPARK OR SHORT CIRCUIT
WHICH MAY CAUSE AN EXPLOSION. BE CAREFUL TO
AVOID SPILLING ANY ELECTROLYTE ON HANDS OR
CLOTHING.
Figure 14
NOTE: WHEN SERVICING THE BATTERY, BE SURE
BATTERY CABLES ARE DISCONNECTED BE-
FORE ATTEMPTING REMOVAL OF THE BAT-
TERY FROM THE TRACTOR. ALWAYS DIS-
CONNECT NEGATIVE (-) CABLES FIRST.
WHEN INSTALLING THE BATTERY, ALWAYS
CHECK THE POLARITY OF THE BATTERY
TERMINALS TO BE SURE THE BATTERY IS
NOT REVERSED. THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL
(-) IS GROUND. ALWAYS CONNECT THE
NEGATIVE TERMINAL (-) LAST. SHOULD IT
BECOME NECESSARY TO REMOVE THE BAT-
TERY, WHEN REINSTALLING IT: (1) PLACE
HOLD DOWN RODS IN PLACE. (2) TIGHTEN
WING-NUTS FINGER TIGHT ONLY, TO AVOID
POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO BATTERY CASE.
The electrolyte (acid and water) in each cell should be at
triangle level at all times to prevent battery failure. When
the electrolyte is below this level,
add pure, distilled water.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ADD ANY SPECIAL
BATTERY "DOPES," SOLUTIONS OR POWDERS OR
EXOTIC ADDITIVES: THIS VOIDS WARRANTY.
PNEUMATIC TIRES
Keep both front and rear tires inflated evenly. Under no
circumstances should tire inflation be less than 8 pounds,
nor more than 12 pounds. Check air pressure regularly with
a low pressure gauge. Operating with incorrect pressures
may damage tires.
See Trouble Shooting Guide on page 17 for additional
information.
