Maintenance free batteries also
need care. Maintenance free only
means that the fluid level does not
need to be checked.
Every battery has a self-discharge,
which may, if not checked occasion-
ally, even cause damage to the bat-
tery as a result of exhaustive dis-
charge.
Exhausted batteries (batteries with
formation of sulphate on the plates)
are not covered under warranty!
Protective equip-
ment:
1. Park the machine in secured condition
Ä Chapter 6.8 'Parking the machine in
secured condition' on page 133.
2. Remove the battery and clean the battery
compartment.
3. Clean the outside of the battery.
4. Clean battery poles and pole clamps and
grease them with pole grease (Vaseline).
5. Install the battery and check the battery
fastening.
6. On serviceable batteries check the acid
level, if necessary top up to the filling mark
with distilled water.
