CONNECTING BATTERy
See Figure 8.
The battery cables must be connected before the electric

then connect the black wire to the negative (−) terminal
using the bolts, nuts, and washers provided. Make sure
all connections are tight.
NOTE:
Be careful not to short across the terminals when
installing. Shorting the terminals together can cause
sparks, damage to the battery or generator, or even burns
or explosions.

Cover the terminals with the rubber covers.
When removing the battery for replacement:
remove the
nut and bolt first from the negative (black) post, then from
the positive (red) post, being careful not to short across the
terminals. Always abide by the safety warnings provided with
the battery. Remove the battery and dispose of according
to local and state regulations.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electrocution or explosion, do
not short circuit the battery terminals or charge in a
sealed container. Keep sparks and flame away.
WARNING:
Keep metal objects away from the battery terminals.
Metal objects can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
