Battery Maintenance (FS 520 / FS 524):

This engine starting battery (RR) is a sealed unit and will never require the addition of water. Keep the top of the battery and the cable connections clean and free of corrosion. Coat the connections with a high tempera- ture grease or petroleum jelly. Periodically check the battery by measuring its voltage with a DC voltmeter. A fully charged battery will be 12.8 volts. It is recom- mended that voltage checking and charging be done at the battery cable on the starter motor at the front of the saw.

Charge battery at least once a month. Charging can be done by running engine for at lease 30 minutes or connect battery to a trickle charger (2 amps or less) for 8 hours. If battery will not start engine, it is recom- mended that battery be replaced or charged with a trickle charger (2 amp rating or less).

NOTICE

A fully charged battery will be 12.8 volts.

Jump starting this equipment from a larger battery or boost charger is not recommended. Doing so could cause permanent damage to the internal battery.
