Lawn & Garden batteries can
come in two terminal
configurations. The Positive (+) and Negative (-)
terminals can be oriented so that they are +/-
or -/+. See Figure. In the unlikely event that the
battery terminals are unmarked, we
recommend that you return the battery to the
retailer for exchange for a properly 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 covered under warranty can result.
