BATTERY SERVICE
Check the battery electrolyte level once each week or
every 25 hours of operation. Check it monthly if the tractor
is idle or is in storage. Add distilled water to bring the level to
the bottom of the split ring in the filler tube of each ceil.
Each spring and fall clean the battery and terminals with
ammonia or bicarbonate of soda solution followed by flushing
with clean water. Keeping the battery clean will prolong
battery life. After cleaning, apply a light coat of grease to the
terminal and cable ends.
Keep cable clamps securely tightened to terminals and
keep battery hold-down clamps tight to prevent vibration but
do not overtighten as this could warp the case.
