If battery appears weak, have it charged by a trained technician. The battery should never be left discharged
any longer than absolutely necessary (do not leave discharged overnight).

should be checked monthly. Vehicle should be on a level surface when checking oil (Figure 31). Do not over-
fill with oil.
