Lawn & Garden batteries
can come in two terminal configurations. The
Positive (+) and Negative (-) terminals can be
oriented so that they are +/- or -/+. In the
unlikely event that the battery terminals are
unmarked, we recommend that you return the
battery to the retailer for exchange for a prop-
erly marked battery or let an authorized service
center install the battery for you. Failure to
connect the battery properly can possibly
cause bodily injury. In addition, extensive
engine electrical damage not be covered under
warranty can result.
To Prevent sparks connect
the red (positive) cable to the positive (+)
terminal before connecting the black negative
cable.
