Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.
cial attention should be paid to metal components adjacent to the batteries which should also be sprayed with the
solution.
Allow the solution to set for at
least three minutes; use a soft
bristle brush or cloth to wipe
the tops of the batteries in
order to remove any residue
that could cause the self-dis-
charge of the battery. Rinse the
entire area with low pressure
clear water. All of the items
required for complete battery
cleaning and watering are con-
tained in the Battery Mainte-
nance Kit (P/N 25587-G01).

Battery Replacement
Before any electrical service is performed, the Run-Tow/Maintenance switch must be placed in the 'Tow/Mainte-
nance' position.
If a power wire (battery, motor or controller) is disconnected for any reason, the Run-Tow/Maintenance switch must
be left in the 'Tow/Maintenance' position for at least 30 seconds after the circuit is restored.
Remove battery hold downs and cables. Lift out batteries with a commercially available lifting device.
If the batteries have been cleaned and any acid in the battery rack area neutralized as recommended, no corrosion
to the battery racks or surrounding area should be present. Any corrosion found should be immediately removed with
a putty knife and a wire brush. The area should be washed with a solution of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and
water and thoroughly dried before priming and painting with a corrosion resistant paint.
The batteries should be placed into the battery racks and the battery hold downs tightened to 45 - 55 in. lbs. (5 - 6
Nm) torque, to prevent movement but not tight enough to cause distortion of the battery cases.
Inspect all wires and terminals. Clean any corrosion from the battery terminals or the wire terminals with a solution of
sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and brush clean if required.
To prevent battery explosion that could result in severe personal injury or death, extreme care
must be used with aerosol containers of battery terminal protectant. Insulate the metal container
to prevent the metal can from contacting battery terminals which could result in an explosion.
