Activating and Installing the
Battery
Bulk electrolyte with 1.265 specific gravity must be
purchased from a local battery supply outlet.

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
