Although the individual batteries are sealed and require minimal maintenance only, the
batteries should be given a periodic inspection and electrical check every six months.
Battery Service Agreements are available through OnLine Power Customer Service and
Support at 1-800-PWR-SRVC (800-797-7782).
In order to qualify for battery warranty replacement, you will need to show records of the
battery maintenance history including battery numbers, battery voltages (individual cells),
terminal torque measurements and dates of maintenance.
9.4.5 Power Connections

Check for corrosion and connection integrity. Visually inspect wiring for discolored or
cracked insulation. Clean and / or re-torque as required.

All Battery terminal connections must be tighten with proper torque value set in
accordance with the table or instructions provided by battery manufacturer.

Use the correct torque tool to tighten the terminal bolts as indicated in table below and
use all hardware's provided with batteries.
