Cleaning
Keep the batteries clean and dry. Contamination and

in wet weather. Remove oxidation from the battery
poles and terminals, using a brass brush. Tighten the
terminals securely and grease them with terminal
grease or petroleum jelly.

above the cell plates in the battery. Top up with distilled
water as required.
After filling, the battery should be charged for at least
30 minutes by running the engine at idle.
