10.4 STARTING ENGINE WITH BOOSTER CABLE
If the battery is discharged and booster cables are used to start the engine, do
as follows
• Be careful not to let the normal machine and problem machine
contact each other.
• When connecting the cables, never let the positive (+) and negative
(-) terminals contact each other.
• Make sure that there is no mistake in the booster cable connection.
When the final connection is made to the negative (-) terminal,
sparks will be generated, so do not connect to the negative (-)
terminal of the battery on the problem machine. Connect to the
engine block.
• When starting the engine with a booster cable, always wear safety
glasses.
NOTICE
• The size of the booster cable and clip should be suitable for the battery capacity. Check that they are not
corroded or damaged.
• The battery on the normal machine must be the same capacity as that on the problem machine.
