Battery Installation

Using a new battery that has not been fully charged can damage the
battery and result in a shorter life. It can also hinder vehicle
performance. Follow the battery charging instructions on page 118
before installing the battery.
1. Ensure that the battery is fully charged.
2. Place the battery in the battery holder.
3. On conventional batteries, install the battery vent tube (sealed
batteries do not have a vent tube). The vent tube must be free of
obstructions and securely installed. Route the tube away from the
frame and vehicle body to prevent contact with electrolyte.
WARNING! Battery gases could accumulate in an improperly installed vent tube
and cause an explosion, resulting in serious injury or death. Always ensure that
the vent tube is free of obstructions and is securely installed as recommended.
4. Coat the terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly.
5. Connect and tighten the red (positive) cable first.
6. Connect and tighten the black (negative) cable last.
7. Verify that cables are properly routed.
8. Reinstall the driver's seat.
