17. BATTERY
Battery electrolyte replenishment
1. Remove the left side cover and check each battery cell for
correct electrolyte level.
2. If the level is low, add distilled water up to the upper level
mark after removing the filler caps.
Battery charging
1. Using a hydrometer, check each cell for correct specific
gravity. When the reading taken is below 1.200 at 20°C or
68°F, recharge the battery. When reading the hydrometer,
hold the gauge vertically as shown.
Specified specific gravity:
1.260—1.280 at 20°C (68°F)
18. HEADLIGHT
Headlight aiming
1. Headlight case mounting bolts provide vertical adjustment.
2. To change horizontal adjustment, turn the adjusting screw
in or out at the rim.
19. STOP LIGHT SWITCH
. Set the main switch in the "ON" position.
2. Turn the adjusting nut in or out so that the light will go
on when the brake pedal is depressed. Turning the nut
clockwise (in direction '"A'') causes the light to go on
earlier, and vice versa (in direction ""B'').
3. Check to see if the stop light goes on when the front brake
pedal is applied.
