4. CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
CAUTION
• To avoid accidental short circuit, be sure to attach the positive cable to the positive terminal before the
negative cable is attached to the negative terminal.
• Never remove the battery cap while the engine is running.
• Keep electrolyte away from eyes, hands and clothes. If you are spattered with it, wash it away completely
with water immediately.
• Keep open sparks and flames away from the battery at all times. Hydrogen gas mixed with oxygen
becomes very explosive.
IMPORTANT
• If the machine is to be operated for a short time without battery (using a slave battery for starting), use
additional current (lights) while engine is running and insulate terminal of battery. If this advice is
disregarded, damage to alternator and regulator may result.

2. Connect the COM (−) lead of the voltmeter to the battery's
negative terminal post and the (+) lead to the positive terminal
post, and measure the battery voltage.
3. If the battery voltage is less than the factory specification, check
the battery specific gravity and recharge the battery.
