Maintenance

4.Connect the other end of the positive cable to the positive terminal of the booster battery.

5.Connect the black negative (–) cable to the other terminal (negative) of the booster battery.

6.MAKE THE FINAL CONNECTION ON THE ENGINE BLOCK OF THE STALLED VEHICLE (NOT TO THE NEGATIVE POST) AWAY FROM THE BATTERY. STAND BACK.

7.Start the vehicle and remove the cables in the reverse order of connection (the engine block (black) connection is the first to disconnect).

Installing the Battery

1.Position the battery in the tray with the terminal posts toward the operating position (Figure 27).

2.Install the positive (red) battery cable to the positive (+) battery terminal using the fasteners removed previously.

3.Install the negative battery cable to the negative (-) battery terminal using the fasteners removed previously.

4.Slide the red terminal boot onto the positive (red) battery post.

5.Secure the battery with the strap (Figure 27).

Servicing the Fuses and Relay

The electrical system is protected by fuses. It requires no maintenance; however, if a fuse blows, check the component/circuit for a malfunction or short. There is also a replaceable relay/s next to the fuse. Refer to your Parts manual for correct replacement components.

Fuse Block:

Main fuse: 25 amp fuse, blade-type

Charge Circuit: 20 amp fuse, blade-type

Auxiliary circuit: 15 amp fuse, blade-type

Diode: TVS

1.Raise the seat to gain access to the fuse holder (Figure 29).

Drive System Maintenance

Checking the Tire Pressure

Service Interval: Every 25 hours/Monthly (whichever comes first)

Maintain the air pressure in the front and rear tires as specified. Uneven tire pressure can cause uneven cut. Check the pressure at the valve stem (Figure 30).

Check the tires when they are cold to get the most accurate pressure reading.

Rear Tires: 13 psi (90 kPa)

Front Tires (caster wheels):

Smooth: 13 psi (90 kPa)

Sawtooth: 20 psi (138 kPa)
