Battery terminals or metal tools could short
against metal components, causing sparks.
Sparks can cause the battery gasses to
explode, resulting in personal injury.
• When removing or installing the battery,
do not allow the battery terminals to
touch any metal parts of the traction unit.
• Do not allow metal tools to short between
the battery terminals and metal parts of
the traction unit.
1. Park the traction unit on a level surface, raise
the loader arms, and install the cylinder locks.
2. Stop the engine and remove the key.
3. Connect a charger to the battery (Figure 4) and
charge it for a minimum of 1 hour at 6 to 10
amps. Do not overcharge the battery.
