Battery Maintenance

CAUTION — Battery Hazards

Wear safety glasses or face mask, protective clothes, and rubber gloves when working with battery.

Mishandling of the battery shortens the service life of the battery and adds to maintenance cost. When handling the battery do the following:

Be careful not to let the battery electrolyte come in contact with your body or clothing.

ALWAYS wear eye protection and rubber gloves, since the battery contains sulfuric acid which burns skin and eats through clothing.

ALWAYS check the battery terminals periodically to ensure that they are in good condition.

Use wire brush or sand paper to clean the battery terminals.

ALWAYS check battery for cracks or any other damage. If white pattern appears inside the battery or paste has accumulated at the bottom, replace the battery.

If the pump will not be in operation for a long period of time, store in cool dry place and check the battery charge level every month to maintain the performance of the battery.

Check the battery regularly and make sure that each electrolyte level is to the bottom of the vent well (Figure 21). If necessary add only distilled water in a well-ventilated area.

ALWAYS place a small amount of battery terminal treatment compound around both battery terminals.This will ensure a good connection and will help prevent corrosion around the battery terminals.

Inadequate battery connections may cause poor starting of the generator, and create other malfunctions.

If the battery cables are connected incorrectly, electrical damage to the alternator, engine control box and other electrical componets may result. Pay close attention to the polarity of the battery when connecting the battery cables.
