Battery Service

 

 

Raise front mower body up for battery access (refer to Front Body Latch Release in Operating Instruc­ tions). Check the battery for electrolyte level and charge. The electrolyte level should be at the bot- tom of the vent wells [1/4 to 1/2 in. (6 to 13 mm) above plates]. If the specific gravity is less than 1.225, the battery needs charging. If the battery has been shipped dry, or is wet but needs service, refer to the following instructions.

IMPORTANT: Make sure battery is securely mount- ed in the frame. A loose battery may cause damage to the case resulting in acid leakage and severe dam- age to the machine. A hazard may be created by damage to critical working parts and safety systems.

Wet Battery Service

If the battery has been shipped wet, but the electro- lyte level is low or the battery needs to be charged then:

1.Fill each battery cell with distilled water to the bottom of the vent wells.

2.Charge battery. Refer to Battery Charging in this section.

Dry Battery Service

DANGER

Activating a battery can be dangerous. The battery should be taken to a reliable service station, battery store, or power equipment dealer where a trained techni- cian can activate the battery safely. DO NOT attempt to activate the battery unless you are experienced in battery service work. The following activation and charg- ing instructions are provided for use by a trained battery technician.

DANGER

Battery electrolyte is a poisonous and cor- rosive sulfuric acid solution.

Avoid spillage and contact with skin, eyes, and clothing - causes severe burns.

To prevent accidents, wear safety gog- gles and rubber gloves when working with electrolyte.

Neutralize acid spills with baking soda and water solution.

To fill (activate) battery with electrolyte (if battery has been shipped dry):

1.Remove the battery protector plate, disconnect the battery cables and lift the battery out of the tray.

IMPORTANT: Battery must be removed from the mower before filling with electrolyte.

IMPORTANT: Obtain and use only battery grade sulfuric acid electrolyte with a 1.265 spe- cific gravity to activate the battery. DO NOT use water or any other liquid during initial activation.

2.Remove the filler caps and carefully fill each cell until the electrolyte is just above the plates.

3.After the battery is filled with electrolyte, replace the filler caps and charge the battery. Refer to
