CHAPTER

THREE

6. Slide

the battery out of

the

frame.

7.

Wipe

offany of the

highly corrosive

residue that

may have dripped

from the battery during

removal.

WARNING

Protect

your

eyes, skin and clothing.

If

electrolyte

gets

into

your

eyes,

flush

your

eyes thoroughly

with

clean

water

and

get prompt

medical attention.

CAUTION

Be

careful

not to spill battery electrolyte

on

painted

or

polished

surfaces.

The

liquid contains

sulfuric acid

that is

hishly

corrosive and

will

damage

the

finish.

If

it is spilled,

wash

it off

immediately

with

soapy

water

and

rinse

thoroughly

with

clean

water.

8.

Remove

the

caps

from

the battery

cells and add

distilled

water

to correct

the

fluid level. Never add

electrolyte

(acid)

to correct the

level.

NOTE

If distilled

water

has been added,

reinstall the battery

caps and

gently

shake the battery

for

several minutes

to

mix the existing electrolyte

with

the

new

water.

9. After the

fluid

level has

been corrected

and the

battery allowed to stand

a

few minutes, remove the

battery caps and

check the specific

gravity

of the

electrolyte

in

each

cell

with

a

hydrometer

(Figure

6). See

Battery

Testing in

this chapter.

10.

After

the

battery

has been

refilled,

recharged

or

replaced,

install

it

by

reversing these

removal

steps.

CAUTION

If

you

removed the

breather

tube

from

the

frame,

be sure

to

route it so

that

residue

will

not drain

onto

any

part

of

the

bike's

frame.

The tube

must be

free

of bends

or

twists

as any

restriction

may

pressurize

the

battery

and damage

it.

Testing

Hydrometer

testing

is the best

way to check

battery

condition.

Use

a

hydrometer

with

numbered

graduations

from

1.100 to

1.300

rather

than

one

with

just

color-coded

bands.

To use the

hydrometer, squeeze

the rubber

ball,

insert the

tip

into the cell and

release the

pressure

on the

ball.

Draw enough

electrolyte

to

float

the

weighted

float

inside

the

hydrometer.

Note the

number

in line

with

the surface

of

the electrolyte;

this

is

the

specific

gravity

for

this

cell. Squeezethe

rubber

ball

Take

reading at

eye level

Do not suck

in too much

electrolyte
