Servicing the Battery

Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
g014720
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Voltage: 12 v, 530 Cold Cranking Amps
The battery electrolyte level must be properly maintained and
the top of the battery kept clean. lf the machine is stored in a
location where temperatures are extremely high, the battery
will run down more rapidly than if the machine is stored in
a location where temperatures are cool.
Maintain the cell level with distilled or demineralized water.
Do not fill the cells above the bottom of the split ring inside
each cell.
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 rubber gloves to protect
your hands.
• Fill the battery where clean water is always
available for flushing the skin.
Keep the top of the battery clean by washing it periodically
with a brush dipped in ammonia or bicarbonate of soda
solution. Flush the top surface with water after cleaning it.
Do not remove the fill caps while cleaning the battery.
The battery cables must be tight on the terminals to provide
good electrical contact.
