b.
The batteries should be stored without un-
packing carton in a dark, dry, cool place
where the temperature is constant and does
not exceed l 20°F (49°CJ. (Fig.

Instruction before use
a.
When removing the battery from the card-
board carton, gently lift out the sealed
(Fig. 5. 43)
b.
Inspect the battery to make sure that the
seal (plastic bag is sticked to the battery), it
can be assumed to be in good condition.
c.
This battery will be
for use after filling
with electrolyte
gravity l .260~ 1.280
@ 68°F or 20°CJ.
(Fig. 5. 44)
However,
if
upon inspection, the seal is as
shown in Fig. 5.
45,
it can be assumed that
the seal had been broken and, therefore, the
battery should be charged in accordance with
Tobie 3 after filling with electrolyte.

Note:
l. The discharge capacity for full charge is token os

2.
Discharge capacity is for temperature of
25°C (77°FJ
3. For the dry charged battery, the discharged capacity
is r.1easured one hour stabilizing
period after
the
electrolyte
has been added.
The vacuum sealed
dry charged battery
is measured l O minutes after
the electrolyte
has
been
added.
d.
Upon completing the battery installation, the
initial starting should not be made with the
starting motor, but with the kick starter.
The
reason for this is to allow sufficient time for
the battery to build up to full charge, other-
w:se, the heavy current that the starting motor
would draw from the battery would impose
a rapid drain in the event that the battery is
not fully charged and would have c damaging
effect.
e.
In cold weather such as 30°F [ - 1 °Cl or
lower, the instant charging function can be
greatly improved
if
the electrolyte is wormed
to about 85°F
[30°0
before filling the battery.
