Battery — Disconnect Electrical Circuit - On Tractors with Horizontal Exhaust System

CAUTION: Danger of injury, danger of explosion! Observe the safety precautions, "Handling Batteries Safely" in Section 05.

CAUTION:

DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT:
Disconnect the ground cable at the negative terminal and protect against contact with the connection points or battery terminals, e.g. by insulating with suitable insulating tape.

BEFORE REMOVING THE BATTERY:
Disconnect all battery terminals. Always disconnect the negative terminal (—) first for that and then the positive terminals (+). The wrong sequence could seriously damage the electrical system.

IMPORTANT: Wait at least 4 minutes after switching off the engine before disconnecting the electrical circuit. The DEF system needs this time to flush the leads. To ensure trouble-free operation of the DEF system, it is important to not interrupt this procedure by disconnecting the electrical circuit.

Disconnect electrical circuit:

  1. Remove attaching screws (B) and (C).
