Connecting the Battery Cables
Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and
lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
When attaching battery cables, always connect the POSITIVE (Red)
wire to its terminal first, followed by the NEGATIVE (Black) wire.
For shipping reasons, both battery cables on your equipment may
have been left disconnected from the terminals at the factory. To
connect the battery cables, proceed as follows:
NOTE: The positive battery terminal is marked Pos. (+). The negative
battery terminal is marked Neg. (–).
NOTE: If the positive battery cable is already attached, skip ahead to
step 2.
