Battery Maintenance
Low temperatures will affect the performance of batteries so take particular care of it in winter.
For longterm storage of the tractor remove the battery and keep it in a cool dry room.
If it is on the tractor while stored, disconnect the negative terminal.
Batteries will self discharge if left for a period of without use time.
To keep them in good condition charge them once a month in summer and every second month in winter.
When replacing the original battery, ensure that the replacement battery is the same size.
Failure to do so can cause problems with the electrical circuit.
