Figure 22. Battery and Battery Box
The 7060 uses two positive battery cables and
two negative battery cables. One set is for engine
start, and the other is for the raise/lower pump
assembly. Make sure that both sets of cables are
connected to the battery. Also, LIMIT the cycling
of the raise/lower system on battery power only.
Frequent cycling will diminish the life of the battery.
