Maintenance Battery Battery Installation Always install a fully charged battery. Using a new battery that has not been fully charged can damage the battery and result in a shorter life. It can also hinder vehicle performance. If recharging is necessary, use a .5 amp battery charger. 1. Place the fully charged battery in the mounting bracket. Reinstall the battery plate and tighten the two nuts securely to retain the battery in the mounting bracket. 2. Coat the terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly. 3. Install the terminal covers over the positive and negative battery terminals. 4. Connect and tighten the red (+) cable first. Connect and tighten the black (-) cable last. Torque the battery terminal bolts to 3.5 ft. lbs. (4.7 Nm). 5. Install the mounting bracket with battery to the vehicle. Tighten the three bolts. 6. Verify that battery cables are properly routed. 146
