Battery
Your mower is equipped with a maintenance free battery and
does not need servicing. However, periodic charging of the
battery with an automotive type battery charger will extend its
life.
• Keep battery and terminals clean.
• Keep battery bolts tight.
• See chart for charging times.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Do not attempt to open
or remove caps or covers. Adding or checking level of
electrolyte is not necessary.
Always use two wrenches for the terminal screws.
WARNING! Do not short battery terminals by
allowing a wrench or any other object to contact both
terminals at the same time. Before connecting battery,
remove metal bracelets, wristwatch bands, rings, etc.
Positive terminal must be connected first to prevent sparks
from accidental grounding.
