than two months, check the specif-
ic gravity of the electrolyte at least
once a month and fully charge the
battery whenever necessary.
3. Fully charge the battery before in-

the battery leads are properly con-
nected to the battery terminals and
that the breather hose is properly

breather hose is positioned in
such a way that the frame is ex-
posed to electrolyte or gas ex-pelled from the battery, the
frame could suffer structural
and external damages.
