Important Do not overfill the battery. Electrolyte will
overflow onto other parts of the machine and severe
corrosion and deterioration will result.
5. Install the positive cable (red) to the positive (+)
terminal and the negative cable (black) to the negative
(—) terminal of the battery (Fig. 16) and secure them
with capscrews and nuts. Slide the rubber boot over the
positive terminal to prevent a possible short from
occurring.
Warning
Incorrect battery cable routing could damage the
machine and cables causing sparks. Sparks can
cause the battery gasses to explode, resulting in
personal injury.
• Always disconnect the negative (black) battery
cable before disconnecting the positive (red)
cable.
• Always connect the positive (red) battery cable
before connecting the negative (black) cable.
