2.3 TERMINAL CLEANING AND PROTECTION
All terminals should be cleaned before installation and then periodically as a regu-
lar maintenance. Use a metal bristle brush on the terminal until the dull metal shines
again, do the same to the cables. Install cable and hardware properly and then spray
down both with terminal protection spray. The protective coating will protect the termi-
nal from any electrolyte that escapes the battery.
