1. Battery Maintenance and Boosting
Inspect the batteries on a regular basis for damage such as
a cracked or broken case or cover which would allow
electrolyte loss.
Check the battery cables for tightness and corrosion.
Remove any acid corrosion from the battery and cables
with a baking soda and water solution. Coat the terminal
connections with di-electric grease.
If it is necessary to use a booster battery to start the engine,
BE CAREFUL! There must be one person in the operators
seat and one person to connect and disconnect the battery
cables.
BOOSTING PROCEDURES
The ignition must be in the OFF position. The booster
battery to be used must be 12 volt. Connect the end of the
first cable to the positive (+) terminal of the booster battery.
Connect the other end of the same cable to the loader
battery positive (+) terminal, or to the boosting lug. (See
Fig 4.11A). Connect the end of the second cable to the
negative (–) terminal of the booster battery. Connect the
other end of the same cable to a ground. Keep cables away
from moving parts. Start the engine. After the engine has
started, disconnect the end of the second cable from the
negative (–) terminal of the booster battery. Disconnect the
other end of the same cable from the ground. Disconnect
the end of the first cable from the positive (+) terminal of
the booster battery. Disconnect the other end of the same
cable from the loader battery positive (+) terminal, or
boosting lug (See Fig 4.11A).
