MAINTENANCE
Before working on the battery, ALWAYS disconnect the battery cut‐out swi‐
tch.
In the case of AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) the battery not require any maintenan‐
ce.
In the case of lead acid battery maintenance is reduced and in most cases not ne‐
cessary. However, if the electrolyte, with the machine on a level surface, is below
the minimum allowed level (MIN.), it is possible to top up by removing the sea‐
ling caps and adding distilled water without exceeding the maximum level
(MAX.).
If the machine is going to remain unused for more than one month, it is ad‐
visable to insulate the battery.
When the battery cannot accumulate electric energy any longer, replace it with a
new one having the same characteristics. See the specifications table on the bat‐
tery. Follow the steps below to replace:
• With the machine off and engine key in the OFF position disconnect the bat‐
tery switch;
• Disconnect the battery terminals, always starting from the negative pole (‐).
• Remove the battery and install the new one;
• Reconnect the cables, always starting from the positive pole (+).
The batteries must be disposed of in compliance with the specific regulations
in force.
