Demounting and mounting the battery *
The battery does not need to be demounted unless the motorcycle is being
immobilized.
To demount the battery, remove the screws
1
and fold the underride pro-
tection
2
down. Remove the screws
3
and tilt the battery cover
4
to the
front. First disconnect the negative pole and then the positive pole. Remove
the battery cover and remove the battery together with the battery case.
Recharge the battery before and after storage. Storage temperature:
0 - 35°C (32 - 95°F).
To mount, place the battery and battery case in the battery compartment
and mount the battery cover. First connect the positive pole, then the nega-
tive pole to the battery to avoid a short circuit. Fold the battery cover up
and fasten with 2 screws. Fold the underride protection up, apply Loctite
243 (screw retainer) to both screws, mount the screws and tighten to
25 Nm (19 ft.lbs).

Charging the battery
NOTE: a battery charger, item no. 58429074000, is available from your
KTM dealer. You can also use the battery charger to test the off load vol-
tage, startability of the battery and the generator capacity.
Fold the underride protection and the battery cover down and check the
batter's charging condition. Use a voltmeter to measure the voltage bet-
ween the battery poles (off-load voltage).
Accurate results can only be obtained if the battery has neither been char-
ged nor discharged during a period of 30 minutes preceding the measuring.
Recharging is not required if the voltage exceeds 12.4 V.
Recharge if the voltage is below 12.4 V.
CHARGING:
Connect the battery charger to the cables
5
leading to the battery cover.
These cables were mounted since the battery poles are hard to reach and
short circuits easily occur when handled.
Charge the battery for 5 to a max. of 10 hours with 1,4 amperes and a
max. of 14.4 volts.
For a quick charge, do not charge the battery longer than 1 hour with 4.5
amperes and a max. of 14.4 volts.

Connecting the battery jumper cable
Fold the underride protection and the battery cover down (see demounting
and mounting the battery). Connect the battery jumper cable to the cables
leading to the battery-cover. Connect the positive battery cable first.
!
CAUTION
!
– D
O NOT ALLOW THE BARE PARTS OF THE JUMPER CABLE TO COME INTO CONTACT
WITH EACH OTHER
. A
SHORT CIRCUIT CAN DAMAGE THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM OF BOTH
VEHICLES
.
