Installing the Battery

Parts needed for this procedure:
2 Bolt (1/4 x 5/8 inch)
2 Nut (1/4 inch)
Procedure
1. Mount the battery with the battery terminals toward
the front of the machine.
2. Connect the positive battery cable (red) from the
starter solenoid to the positive post (+) of the battery
(Figure 5). Secure it with a wrench and coat the
terminal with petroleum jelly. Make sure the cable will
clear the seat, in the rear-most position, which could
cause wear or damage to the cable.

Battery terminals or metal tools could short
against metal tractor components causing
sparks. Sparks can cause the battery gasses to
explode, resulting in personal injury.
• When removing or installing the battery,
do not allow the battery terminals to touch
any metal parts of the tractor.
• Do not allow metal tools to short between
