BATTERY 5.6 Removal and Inspection Check and clean 10 Inspect the battery case for cracks that may allow electrolyte to leak into the environment. Inspect the batteries on a regular basis for damage such as cracks or a broken case. Inspect the battery cables for tightness and corrosion. Remove any corrosion and coat the terminals with a dielectric grease. Check the battery hold downs to be sure they are properly retaining the battery in the compartment. (fig. C3585) C3585 Boosting In the event the loader has failed to start and requires boosting, a boosting lug or post is located in the engine compartment. (fig. C4223) 1 Open the rear door and raise the engine compartment cover.
2 Remove the red rubber protective cover from the boosting lug. (fig. C1029) 3 The ignition must be in the off position. 4 Connect the positive cable from the 12 volt boosting supply to the boosting lug on the loader. 5 Connect the negative ground cable to the boosting supply first, and then to a clean ground on the loader engine. Keep the cables away from any moving parts. 6 Start the engine. 7 Remove the negative ground cable from the engine first and then the boosting supply. Remove the positive cable from the boosting lug. Boosting lug location 5 C4223 Boosting lug Circuit Breaker The circuit breaker is located in the engine harness, right hand side of engine. (fig.
C3587) The circuit breaker is covered by loom and is not immediately visible to the eye. 1 Disconnect the battery grounds before testing or replacing the circuit breaker. 2 Strip the loom covering back to access the circuit breaker. 3 Remove the 2 nuts retaining the wires to the circuit breaker. 4 Using an ohmmeter, connect a lead to each of the stud terminals and take a reading. Low resistance is normal. High resistance means the circuit breaker is defective and must be replaced. C1029 Starter Circuit breaker location C2067 5-15
