Care of Battery.
Fully charged batteries don't freeze
Therefore be gure to test regularly in
winter. Starting instructions—as al
rendy glven—are Important. Dark
days and long nights with constant
use of lights and overwork for start
er cause undercharging if not watched.
Keep battery clean and dry. Every
time it Is filled wipe off top with a
cloth, Never bring an open flame near
a battery. Never “short” a battery
with a screwdriver or a pair of pliers,
It is very had for the battery, draws
out excessive current and does not
