Battery Charging
1. Charge the battery at 15 amps for 10 minutes.
DO NOT exceed 20 amps maximum recom-
mended charging rate. Charge until specific
gravity is at least 1.250. Total charging time
should not exceed one (1) hour.
2. After charging the battery, adjust the electrolyte
level to the bottom of the vent wells [1/4 to 1/2 in.
(6 to 13 mm) above the plates].
IMPORTANT: DO NOT overfill the battery.
Electrolyte will overflow through the vented caps
onto parts of the machine and WILL result in
severe corrosion.
3. Install battery.

DANGER
BATTERIES PRODUCE EXPLOSIVE GASES
• Charge the battery in a well-ventilated
area, so that gases produced while charg-
ing can dissipate.
• Keep sparks, flames, and smoking mate-
rials away from the battery at all times.
• Make sure the battery cap vents are open
after the battery is filled with acid (check
manifold vent on each cap).
• Make sure the battery charger is unplug-
ged before connecting or disconnecting
cables to the battery.
WARNING
DO NOT operate the machine without the
grass deflector chute attached and in the
