BATTERY CHARGING
A dead battery or one too weak to start the engine may
be the result of a defect in the charging system or other
electrical component. If there is any doubt about the
cause of the problem, see your dealer. If you need to
replace the battery, follow the steps under Cleaning the
Battery & Cables in the Regular Maintenance Section.
To charge the battery, follow the instructions provided by
the battery charger manufacturer, as well as, all warn-
ings included in the safety rules sections of this book.
Charge the battery until fully charged (until the specific
gravity of the electrolyte is 1.250 or higher and the elec-
trolyte temperature is at least 60° F). Do not charge at a
rate higher than 10 amps.
WARNING
Keep open flames and sparks away from the
battery; the gases coming from it are highly
explosive. Ventilate the battery well during
charging.
