Installing The Steering Wheel - Toro 04356 Operator's Manual

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
the battery terminals and metal parts of the
tractor.
2. Connect the positive battery cable (red) from the
starter solenoid to the positive post (+) of the battery
(Figure 6). 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.
