Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Batteries are heavy. Use proper
lifting techniques when moving
them. Always lift the battery with
a commercially available battery
lifting device. Do not tip batteries
when removing or installing
them; spilled electrolyte can
cause burns and damage.
The electrolyte in a storage battery is an acid
solution which can cause severe burns to the skin
and eyes. Treat all electrolyte spills to the body
and eyes with extended flushing with clear water.
Contact a physician immediately.
Always wear a safety shield or
approved safety goggles when add-
ing water or charging batteries.
Any electrolyte spills should be neutralized with a
solution of 1/4 cup (60 ml) sodium bicarbonate
(baking soda) dissolved in 1 1/2 gallons (6 liters)
of water and flushed with water.
Overfilling batteries may result in electrolyte
being expelled from the battery during the charge
cycle. Expelled electrolyte may cause damage to
the vehicle and storage facility.
Aerosol containers of battery terminal protectant
must be used with extreme care. Insulate metal
container to prevent can from contacting battery
terminals which could result in an explosion.
W r a p w r e n c h e s w i t h
vinyl tape to prevent the
possibility of a dropped
wrench from ‘shorting
out’ a battery, which could result in an explosion
and severe personal injury or death.
BATTERY
A battery is defined as two dissimilar metals immersed in
an acid. If the acid is absent or if the metals are not dis-
similar, a battery has not been created. The batteries
most commonly used in these vehicles are lead acid.
A battery does not store electricity, but is able to produce
electricity as the result of a chemical reaction which
releases stored chemical energy in the form of electrical
energy. The chemical reaction takes place faster in warm
conditions and slower in cold conditions. Temperature is
important when conducting tests on a battery and test

Unless otherwise noted in text, tighten all hardware in accordance with this chart.
This chart specifies 'lubricated' torque figures. Fasteners that are plated or lubricated when
installed are considered 'wet' and require approximately 80% of the torque required for 'dry' fasteners.
