A scanned service manual page titled 'How to Handle Battery (Cont'd)' from the BATTERY/EL section, showing a line drawing of a battery with labeled cell plug, blind plug, and MAX/MIN electrolyte levels, plus a text section on sulphation with a charging voltage/current graph. Page numbered EL-8.
r lcl o If the electrolyte level is low, remove the cell plug using a suitable tool 0 Add distilled water up to the MAX level. Cell plug _ "MAX" level MIN" level alma plug SELZSSG How to Handle Battery (Cont'd) SULPHATION When a battery has been left unattended for a long period of time and has a speclflc gravity of less than 1100, it Will be completely discharged, result ing in sulphatlon on the cell plates. Compared With a battery discharged under normal conditions, the current flow in a "sulphated" bat terv is not as smooth although lts voltage is high during the initial stage of charging, as shown in the following figure.
