Battery Charging
The battery is charged by the alternator whenever
the engine is running and should not require any
other charging. If the machine has not been in ser-
vice or if for some other reason the battery has been
discharged, perform the following:
Check the battery fluid level. If the electrolyte level is
lower than 10 mm (3/8 in.) above the plates, add
clean, distilled water only.
Battery Specific Gravity
After charging, if necessary, the specific gravity of all
cells should be checked with a hydrometer. The tem-
perature corrected specific gravity should be 1.260. If
the battery contains any cells with corrected readings
below 1.230, the battery should be replaced.
Do not check the specific gravity in a cell to which
water has just been added. If there is not enough
electrolyte in a fully charged cell to obtain a sample
for the hydrometer, add water and continue charging
for 1 to 2 hours to adequately mix the water and elec-
trolyte.

UBRICATION
Refer to Table 3-1 for lubrication intervals and
Figure 3-2 for location of items that require lubrica-
tion service. Refer to the appropriate sections for
lubrication information on the hydraulic tank and filter.

Grease Fittings
Wipe each grease fitting before and after greasing.
Using multipurpose grease in a grease gun, pump
the grease into the fitting until grease just begins to
appear at the edges of the pivot, wipe off any excess
grease.
Linkage Gears
1. Raise platform fully.
2. Using another work platform or ladder, get up
high enough to comfortably reach gears.
3. Use a long handled brush to apply multipurpose
grease to the face of the gears.
4. Lower the platform after greasing.
Steering Linkage
Apply one or two drops of motor oil to each pivot and
king pin bearing.
