B - INSTALLING THE BATTERIES
Use extreme caution when working with batteries. Sulfuric acid
in batteries can cause severe injury if allowed to contact the skin
or eyes. Explosive hydrogen gas is vented from the batteries
through openings in the battery caps. This gas can be ignited by
any electrical arc, spark or flame.

WARNING!
Remove all jewelry
Do not smoke
Wear safety glasses
Work in a well-ventilated area
Do not allow tools to touch more than one battery terminal at a time
CAUTION!
Remove the batteries from their shipping crate and carefully inspect
them for cracks or other damage. If damage is evident, contact the
carrier that delivered them or the battery manufacturer to file a damage
claim.
Disconnect the Battery Connector / Charger Plug (17).
Remove the battery cables from inside the tank. Tip the Solution Tank
Cover (11) and Recovery Tank (9) forward.
Your machine comes from the factory with enough battery cables to
install two 12 volt, 105 amp hour batteries. Carefully lift the batteries into
the battery compartment and arrange them exactly as shown on page
2 (Figure B).
Install the battery terminal covers provided with the machine as shown.
Install the battery cables as shown, make sure that the red cable from
the charger plug is connected to the positive terminal and the black cable
connected to the negative terminal. Position the cables so the battery
caps can be easily removed for battery service.
Carefully tighten the wing nut on each battery terminal until the terminal
will not turn on the battery post. Do not over-tighten the terminals, or they
will be very difficult to remove for future service.
Coat the terminals and posts with grease, petroleum jelly, or spray-on
battery terminal coating (available at most auto parts stores).
Connect the Battery Connector / Charger Plug (17).
