Maintaining the Batteries

CALIFORNIA
Proposition 65 Warning
Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.
WARNING
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 machine.
• Do not allow metal tools to short between
the battery terminals and metal parts of the
machine.
• Always keep the battery retainers in place to
protect and secure the batteries.
Cleaning the Batteries
Service Interval: Every 25 hours
1. Ensure that all of the battery caps are tight.
2. Use a paper towel to clean the batteries.
3. If the battery terminals are corroded, clean them with
a solution of 4 parts water and one part baking soda.
Also, clean the posts and cable clamps with a post and
clamp cleaner.
Note: The posts and clamps should have a bright
metallic shine.
4. Apply a light coating of Toro battery-terminal
protector.
