I went to use the tractor after maybe 2 months since I last
needed it. I had left it plugged in using a Landis
controller. My guess from watching the fuel gauge was
it was doing a 5 minute charge every other day. I had not
heard it charging that much. When I went to hook up a trailer, I notice a huge pile of dried
battery acid on the trailer hitch extender (little metal bar to move the
trailer hitch out from under the tractor). I checked the batteries and 3 cells in 3 different batteries
were a little low, the plates were just beginning to clear the
water. I added a little more water. I know I put
a little too much water in a few cells the last time I filled it. Is this leakage common? Anything I can do
about it? |
