Battery Electrolyte Level Check (Canadian Model) - Honda HS1336iAS Owner's Manual

Battery Electrolyte Level Check (Canadian model)

1. Remove the rear cover (see page 96) and check whether the battery
electrolyte is between the upper and lower levels.
If the battery electrolyte is near or below the lower level, add the distilled
water to the upper level.
2. Remove the batteries (see page 96).
Remove the caps of the battery, and then fill the battery with distilled water to
the upper level line. Never overfill the battery.
• Use only distilled water in the battery. Tap water will shorten the service life of
the battery.
• Do not fill the battery beyond the UPPER LEVEL. If overfilled, electrolyte may
overflow and corrode snow blower components. Immediately wash off any
spilled electrolyte.
Any corrosion around the positive and
negative terminals should be washed off
with a solution of baking soda and warm
water.
Dry the terminals and retighten the
terminal bolts if necessary, and then coat
the terminals with grease.
3. After checking the electrolyte level,
reinstall the batteries (see page 98).
