Battery Replacement and Maintenance Tips:
• Check the batteries at least every six months
for low Voltage, leakage, etc.
• Always use the correct size and type of battery.
Replace old batteries with a new SP-30 Lawn
and Garden battery with 230 CCA and 290 CA
ratings.
• Do not install the battery cable to the wrong
terminal. Make sure the RED cable is connected
to the + (plus) terminal and the BLACK cable is
connected to the – (minus) terminal.
• Remove the batteries from the seed tender if
not expected to be in use for several months.
• Use recommended practices when recharging
a dead battery.
• Remove any corrosion from the battery post
using a wire brush terminal cleaner. Corrosion
can also be removed using a baking soda
paste and water to neutralize and remove the
acid from the battery terminals.
• Dispose of old batteries properly.
• Make sure the tie-down strap is connected
to the frame of the battery box and in good
condition (not cracked, cut, or damaged).
• The battery is not charged when the engine is
operating. If the battery is not charging using
an external charger, check the fuse. Replace
the fuse if necessary.
