BATTERY
The battery for the machine is a low maintenance
battery. Do not add water to the battery or remove
the battery vent plugs.
After the first 50 hours of operation, and every
800 hours after that, clean and tighten the battery
connections.

avoid contact with battery acid.
BELTS AND CHAINS
ENGINE FAN BELT
The engine fan belt is driven by the engine
crankshaft pulley and drives the engine fan and
alternator pulleys. Proper belt tension is obtained
when the belt deflects 7 to 9 mm (0.28 to 0.35 in)
from a force of 10 kg (22 lb) applied at the
mid-point of the longest span.
Check and adjust the belt tension every 100 hours
of operation.
WARNING: Moving belt and fan. Keep
away.
STATIC DRAG CHAIN
A static drag chain prevents the buildup of static
electricity in the machine. The chain is attached to
the machine by a rear main brush skirt retaining
bolt.
Make sure the chain is touching the floor at all
times.
