Battery
Check the level of the battery fluid and see if the
terminals are tight. Add distilled water if the fluid
level is low.
cC
Do not leave or store the battery on its side.
When inspecting the battery, be sure the
breather hose is routed correctly. If it touch-
es the frame or exists in such a way as to
cause battery electrolyte or gas to exit onto
the frame, structural and cosmetic damage
to the machine can occur.

EXTERNAL: Flush with water.
INTERNAL: Drink large quantities of water or
milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten
egg or vegetable oil. Call a physician imme-
diately.
EYES: Flush with water for 15 minutes and
get prompt medical attention. Batteries pro-
duce explosive gases. Keep sparks, flame,
cigarettes or other sources of ignition away.
Ventilate when charging or using in an

Replenishing the battery fluid
A poorly maintained battery will corrode and dis-
charge quickly. The battery fluid should be
checked at least once a month.
1. The level should be between the maximum
and minimum level marks. Use only distilled
water if refilling is necessary.
2. Disconnect the negative (–) lead.
3. Disconnect the positive (+) lead, and then
remove the battery.
cC
Normal tap water contains minerals which
are harmful to a battery. Therefore, refill only
with distilled water.
