BATTERY Figure 8 - Battery Maintenance Inspection cable clamps.  Other type terminals can be cleaned with a wire brush.  The cable terminals should then be cleaned with an acid neutralizing solution of baking soda and water.  Clean dirt from the battery top with a cloth moistened with baking soda and water.  Then wipe with a cloth moistened with clear water.  A wire brush can be used to remove dirt, corrosion or rust from the battery tray or hold down parts. After rust is removed, rinse with clear water, dry with air and repaint. After cleaning, reinstall battery and hold down parts as instructed under REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION.  Coat battery and cable terminals with terminal grease (IH part number 472121C1) and connect cables to battery terminals.  Connect ground cable last. 3. On low maintenance (conventional) batteries, check the electrolyte level.  If necessary, add distilled water to bring the liquid level to the level indicator.  If the battery does not have a level indicator, bring the level to 13 mm (1/2 inch) above the tops of the separators.  Do not overfill any cell.  When a cell is overfilled, the excess electrolyte may be forced from the cell by the gas formed In the battery.  This will cause excessive corrosion of adjacent metal parts, reduced performance and shorter life. Frequent need for refilling battery cells may indicate that battery is being over-charged.  Check charging system and readjust voltage regulator as needed. Maintenance free type batteries do not require addition of water under normal operating conditions. If loss of electrolyte is suspected, check electrolyte level as instructed under TESTING and determine cause for low level. EMERGENCY (JUMPER) STARTING The procedure outlined below should be followed exact- ly if it becomes necessary to use a booster battery to start a vehicle with a discharged battery. CAUTION - BOTH BOOSTER AND DISCHARGED BATTERIES MUST BE TREATED CAREFULLY WHEN USING JUMPER CABLES.  BE CAREFUL NOT TO CAUSE SPARKS.  OBSERVE ALL PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES LISTED UNDER PRECAUTIONS. WEAR GOGGLES TO SHIELD EYES. ANY PROCEDURE OTHER THAN THAT OUTLINED BELOW COULD RESULT IN (1) PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY ELECTROLYTE SQUIRTING OUT THE BATTERY VENT, (2) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROP- ERTY DAMAGE DUE TO BATTERY EXPLOSION, (3) DAMAGE TO THE CHARGING SYSTEM OF THE BOOSTER VEHICLE OR OF THE IMMOBILIZED VEHICLE. Make sure booster and discharged batteries are the same voltage (6-volt or 12-volt). Make certain the stalled vehicle and the one containing the booster battery do not touch.  If the two vehicles are in contact, a ground connection could be established which could cause sparking when jumper cables are attached. 1. On both vehicles: Set parking brake.  Place trans- mission in NEUTRAL or PARK.  Turn lights, heater and other electrical loads "OFF".  Make certain igni- tion key is turned "OFF". 2. Determine whether the discharged battery has the negative (-) or positive (+) terminal grounded.  The ground cable is connected to the engine block, vehicle frame or other good metallic ground.  The battery cable connected to the starter relay is the one which is NOT grounded. 3. Be sure vent caps are tight on both batteries.  Place a damp cloth over the vents of each battery.  Make certain cloth is clear of fan blades, belts and other moving parts. 4. On negative ground vehicles, attach one end of the jumper cable to the positive (+) terminal of the CTS-4111B - Page 8
