Install the Battery

Parts needed for this procedure:
A/R Petroleum jelly (not supplied)
Procedure
1. Slide the battery into the battery box with the
terminals to the rear.
Battery terminals or metal tools could short
against metal processor 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
try terminals and metal parts of the tractor.
2. Attach the negative cable (black cable) to the negative
(-) terminal of the battery.
Incorrect battery cable routing could damage
the processor and cables causing sparks.
Sparks can cause the battery gasses to explode,
resulting in personal injury.
• Always disconnect the negative (black)
battery cable before disconnecting the
positive (red) cable.
• Always connect the positive (red) battery
cable before connecting the negative (black)
cable.
3. Attach the positive cable (red cable) to the positive
(+) terminal.
4. Coat the terminals and mounting fasteners with
petroleum jelly to prevent corrosion.
5. Install the battery cover and secure with the strap.
