Using it day to day: practical tips
Harvest week, the combine has stood since last year and the starter barely turns. Torque the terminal nuts to the maker's figure. Corroded lugs and a loose earth strap can mimic a dead battery.
What lead-acid means for you
Plates made of lead and lead dioxide react with the acid. Fleet vehicles often use flooded batteries for value. Avoid deep discharges, which encourage sulphation.
Check before ordering
- ✓ Diesel engine? Its starting demand is high, so check that 1200A covers what the maker recommends.
- ✓ Technology to match: lead-acid. Moving to a different chemistry may need settings changed in your system.
- ✓ Dimensions to compare: 513 × 223 × 223 mm. Do not forget the base ledge, which the hold-down clamp grips on many vehicles.
