Description of Change: Battery cable routing has been changed to prevent possible interference with the throttle cable. This should reduce the chances of a short circuit occurring.
Adaptable To: The new routing of the 8W-3630 Battery Cable on machines with standard batteries, or the 115-9457 Battery Cable on machines with the 7I-5013 Heavy Duty Battery Group, is effective with 12H (4XM1272, 8MN450, 2LR295, 2WR512, 4ER409, 2GS310), 140H (2ZK1947, 5HM870, 8JM261, 8KM369, 9TN178, 9ZN120, 3FR131, 3AS391), and 160H (6WM334, 9EJ452, 2FM350, 3GM36, 3HR21, 2HS338) Motor Graders. The new routing of the 108-3570 Battery Cable, used on AWD machines, is effective with 143H (1AL164), and 163H (5AK131) Motor Graders. Refer to the chart, procedures (and illustration) below to adapt the new cable routing to earlier machines.
