Activating the Battery
Bulk electrolyte with 1.260 specific gravity must be
purchased from a local battery supply outlet.
1. If already installed, remove the battery from the
holder.
Danger
Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid which is
a deadly poison and causes severe burns.
•
Do not drink electrolyte and avoid contact with
skin, eyes or clothing. Wear safety glasses to
shield your eyes and robber gloves to protect
your hands.
•
Fill the battery where clean water is always
available for flushing the skin.
•
Follow all instructions and comply with all
safety messages on the electrolyte container.
2. Remove filler caps from the battery. Slowly pour
electrolyte into each cell until the electrolyte level is
