Troubleshooting, Adjustment & Service
6. Charge the battery until fully charged (until the
specific gravity of the electrolyte is 1.250 or higher
and the electrolyte temperature is at least 60° F).
The best method of making certain a battery is
fully charged, but not over charged, is to measure
the specific gravity of a cell once per hour. The
battery is fully charged when the cells are gassing
freely at low charging rate and less than 0.003
change in specific gravity occurs over a three hour
period.

Jump Starting With Auxiliary (Booster) Battery
Jump starting is not recommended. However, if it
must be done, follow these directions. Both booster
and dis-charged batteries should be treated carefully
when using jumper cables. Follow the steps below
EXACTLY, being careful not to cause sparks. Refer to
Figure 55.

Figure 55.
1. Both batteries must be of the same voltage.
2. Position the vehicle with the booster battery
adjacent to the vehicle with the discharged battery
so that booster cables can be connected easily
to the batteries in both vehicles. Make certain
vehicles do not touch each other.

from batteries at all times. Be sure vent caps are
tight. Place damp cloth over vent caps on both
batteries.

4. Connect positive (+) cable to positive post of
discharged battery (wired to starter or solenoid).
5. Connect the other end of same cable to same post
marked positive (+) on booster battery.
6. Connect the second cable negative (-) to other
post of booster battery.
7. Make final connection on engine block of stalled
vehicle away from battery. Do not lean over
batteries.

seconds, STOP PROCEDURE. More than thirty
seconds seldom starts the engine unless some
mechanical adjustment is made.

WARNING
Any procedure other than the preceding could
result in:
result in:
(1) personal injury caused by electrolyte
squirting out the battery vents,
(2) personal injury or property damage due
to battery explosion,
(3) damage to the charging system of the
booster vehicle or of the immobilized
vehicle.
vehicle.
Do not attempt to jump start a vehicle having a
frozen battery because the battery may rupture
or explode. If a frozen battery is suspected,
examine all fill vents on the battery. If ice
can be seen or if the electrolyte fluid cannot
be seen, do not attempt to start with jumper
cables as long as the battery remains frozen.
