Husqvarna TE 630 2011 I.E. Manual page 107

BATTERY
The sealed battery does not require any maintenance.
When electrolyte leaks, or other failure of the electrical
system is detected, apply to the HUSQVARNA Dealer.
If the vehicle remains unused for long periods, it is rec-
ommended to disconnect the battery from the electrical
system and store it in a dry place.
- After an intensive use of the battery, it is advisable to
carry out a standard slow charging cycle (12V-14Ah
battery: 1.4A for 10 hours).
- Quick charging is advised only in situations of extreme
necessity since the life of lead elements is drastically
reduced by such cycle (12V-14Ah battery: 2.5A for 2
hours).
BATTERY CHARGER
To gain access to the battery (2):
- Insert the key in latch (1) then turn clockwise to release
the saddle lock; remove the saddle.
- Release the elastic strap (3) holding the battery;
- first remove the BLACK or BLUE negative cable, then the
RED positive cable (when reassembling, first connect
the RED positive cable, then the BLACK or BLUE nega-
tive cable);
- remove the battery (2) from its housing.
Check, using a voltmeter, that battery voltage is not less
than 12.5 V.
If it is not so, the battery needs to be charged.
Using a battery charger with a constant voltage, first con-
nect the RED positive cable to the battery positive termi-
nal then the BLACK or BLUE negative cable to the battery
negative terminal.
The voltage reaches a constant value only after a few
hours, therefore it is suggested NOT to measure it imme-
diately after having charged or discharged the battery.
Always check the battery charge before reinstalling it on
the vehicle.
The battery should be kept clean and the terminals
coated with grease.

WARNING*: The battery contains sulphu-
ric acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or
clothing.
Antidote:
EXTERNAL - Flush with water.

ter or milk. After milk, take magnesia,
beaten eggs or vegetable oil. Immedi-
ately call a doctor.
Eyes: Flush with water for no less than
15 minutes and get prompt medical at-
tention.
WARNING*: If the battery is left unused,
it has to be in any case recharged with
slow cycle (12V-14Ah battery: 1.4A for
10 hours) at least every 3 weeks.
WARNING*: Batteries produce explosive
gas, ventilate when charging or using
indoors. When using a battery charger,
always connect the battery before turn-
ing on the charger. This procedure pre-
vents sparks at the battery terminals
which could ignite any battery gases.
