All Machines With Batteries
Low maintenance high output batteries are now standard equipment on all machines shipped from the factory. The low maintenance high output (LMHO) batteries require less service than conventional batteries. The service interval for battery maintenance has been extended from 100 hours (conventional batteries) to 250 hours (low maintenance high output batteries). Low maintenance high output 12V dry batteries are available for parts service as shown in the chart.
