2 Make sure the key switch is in the OFF position.
3 Install the battery cables as shown in fi gure B, with the terminals marked
“P” on the positive battery posts and the terminals marked “N” on the
negative battery posts. Position the cables so that the caps can be
easily removed when it is necessary to add water to the batteries.
4 Tighten the nut on each battery terminal just enough to keep the terminal
from being turned on the battery post. Then tighten the nut one more
full turn.
5 Coat all the terminals and posts with grease, petroleum jelly or spray-on
battery coating (available at most auto parts stores).
6 Put on the black rubber “boots” over each of the terminals and use the
plastic tie straps to hold them in place.
7 Join the connector from the battery pack to the connector on the control
panel.
8 Reassemble machine.
NOTE: Charge the batteries before using the machine.
