Activating the Battery

Bulk electrolyte with 1.265 specific gravity must be
purchased from a local battery supply outlet.
Danger
Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid which is
a deadly poison and causes severe burns.
Do not drink electrolyte and avoid contact with
skin, eyes or clothing. Wear safety glasses to
shield your eyes and robber gloves to protect
your hands.
Fill the battery where clean water is always
available for flushing the skin.
Follow all instructions and comply with all
safety messages on the electrolyte container.
1. Remove the battery from the machine. Refer to
Removing the Battery on page 43.
2. Clean the top of the battery with a paper towel.
Note: Never fill the battery with electrolyte while the
battery is installed in the machine. Electrolyte could be
spilled on other parts and cause corrosion.
3. Remove the vent caps from the battery (Fig. 48).
