VIII. MAINTENANCE
53
WARNING: Never attempt to keep on using
or charging the battery with a electrolyte
level lower than the limit, or the battery may
explode or its service life be shortened due
to deterioration inside the casing.
(1) Battery
(3) Lower limit
(2) Upper limit
(4) Filler plug
IMPORTANT: The electrolyte level should always be
kept between the upper and lower limits.
A too high level will cause the electrolyte
to overflow and corrode other parts.

HANDLING OF THE BATTERY
WARNING:
• Be sure to connect the battery terminals
correctly.
• The wiring from the battery should be
kept clean and connectors tight. Dirty or
loose wiring may cause a fire.
• When disconnecting the battery, disconnect
the negative terminal first and vice versa
when connecting.
• When replacing the battery, use a battery
of the same capacity as that of the current
on (44B 19L).
a. As atmospheric temperature lowers, the performance
of the battery also lowers. Consequently the battery
should be serviced with special care in wintertime.
b. As the battery discharges even when it is not used, it
should be charged every or every other month at the
maximum.
c. When the lawn mower is not used for a long time, re-
move the battery from the lawn mower and store it in
a place dry and shaded from direct sunshine.
IMPORTANT: Quick charging should be avoided, for it
will shorten the service life of the battery.
Do not throw away the battery to the
garbage can. Recycle it with observing
the law of your community.
15. TIRE PRESSURE (INFLATION)
Improper tire pressure causes the tires to wear ab-
normally and affects the lawn mower performance.
Too high pressure causes the lawn mower to bounce
too much and too low pressure increases travelling
resistance,which leads to power loss.
Tire pressure should be checked everyday.

WARNING:
• Tire inflation should be set to the values
specified in this manual. Excessive inflation
may cause certain types to explode, which
may result in serious accidents.
• Never use a tire with a cut or crack which
reaches tire cords as such a tire may
explode.
• When a tire, tube, or rim is required for
replacement, ask your dealer. Such opera-
tion should be done by a mechanic trained
especially for tire handling.
16. INSPECTION OF STEERING WHEEL
Start the engine and turn the steering wheel lightly
in both directions to check to see the wheel turns
smoothly.
Make sure that the tire toe-in is properly set. Improper
toe-in causes unstable steering of the lawn mower: the
lawn mower has a tendency to turn in one direction,
right or left or the steering wheel turns unexpectedly.
Tire toe-in (b-a) : 1 to 5 mm (0.04 to 0.20 in.)
