Important Safety Information
Think Safety
Most accidents that involve product operation,
maintenance, and repair are caused by failure
to observe basic safety rules or precautions.
An accident can often be avoided by
recognizing potentially hazardous situations
before an accident occurs. A person must be
alert to potential hazards. This person should
also have the necessary training, skills, and
tools to perform these functions properly.
Improper operation, lubrication,
maintenance, or repair of this product can
be dangerous and could result in injury or
death.
Do not operate or perform any lubrication,
maintenance, or repair on this product until
you have read and understood the
operation, lubrication, maintenance, and
repair information.
Safety precautions and warnings are provided
in this manual and on the product. If these
hazard warnings are not heeded, bodily injury
or death could occur to you or to other
persons.
The hazards are identified by the “Safety Alert
Symbol” and followed by a “Signal Word” such
as “DANGER”, “WARNING”, or “CAUTION”.
The Safety Alert “WARNING” label is shown
below.
WARNING
The meaning of this safety alert symbol is as
follows:
Attention! Become Alert! Your Safety is
Involved.
2
The message that appears under the warning
explains the hazard and can be either written
or pictorially presented.
Operations that may cause product damage
are identified by “NOTICE” labels on the
product and in this publication.
Caterpillar cannot anticipate every possible
circumstance that might involve a potential
hazard. The warnings in this publication
and on the product are, therefore, not
all-inclusive. If a tool, procedure, work
method, or operating technique that is not
specifically recommended by Caterpillar is
used, you must satisfy yourself that it is
safe for you and for others. You should
also ensure that the product will not be
damaged or be made unsafe by the
operation, lubrication, maintenance or
repair procedures that you choose.
The information, specifications, and illustrations
in this publication are on the basis of
information that was available at the time that
the publication was written. The specifications,
torques, pressures, measurements,
adjustments, illustrations, and other items can
change at any time. These changes can affect
the service that is given to the product. Obtain
the complete and most current information
before you start any job.
WARNING
When replacement parts are required for this
product, Caterpillar recommends using
Caterpillar replacement parts or parts with
equivalent specifications including, but not
limited to, physical dimensions, type,
strength, and material.
Failure to heed this warning can lead to
premature failures, product damage,
personal injury, or death.

5.. Continue with the appropriate test steps, as
explained in the following sections.
1.. Check the following:
a.. If the battery being tested is frozen, let
it warm up before testing.
b.. Make sure the terminals of the battery
being tested are clean and dry; brush
and clean gently, if necessary.
c.. Before testing, let the battery stabilize
for three minutes after being removed
from a battery charger or an operating
machine. Otherwise, let the battery
stabilize one minute before testing.
d. If testing a battery installed in a
machine, make sure the connection
between the battery terminals and
cables is not oxidized or loose. This
condition could cause cranking and
charging problems and may provide
false test results.

Understanding Test Results
This section includes descriptions for test
results and tips for solving problems.
Battery Test Results
Bat. Good: the battery is in good condition
and can hold a charge. This also indicates
that the charging system, cranking system,
and diode test will be unaffected by the
battery condition.
Bat. Good/Low Charge: the battery is in
good condition but needs to be charged.
(The battery charge is above 15%, but not
close to the full nominal capacity.)
Bat. Charge & Retest: the battery is almost
fully discharged and the battery condition
cannot be determined. (The battery charge
is below 15% of the nominal capacity.)
Charge the battery and repeat the test.
Bat. Bad: the battery is in bad condition and
most likely will not hold enough of a charge
for reliable engine starting. Replace the
battery.
NOTE: A bad battery can mask other
charging system problems that will be caught
when tested with a good battery. For example,
a bad battery could make the diodes test bad.
23
System Test Results
Charge Battery and Retest System:
indicates the battery either has a low charge
or is almost fully discharged and must be
charged before running any tests.
Service Batteries as Required and Retest
System: indicates battery is bad and must
be replaced before running any tests.
Diodes Good: indicates the rectifier diodes
are good.
Diodes Bad: indicates the diode pack or
alternator needs to be replaced.
NOTE: To prevent an erroneous diode test,
the tester should not be used to test diodes
unless the battery condition is good.
Charging System Good: indicates the
charging system is in good condition.
Charging Volts Too Low/High Charging
System Needs Repair: indicates the
charging system voltages are too low/high.
The charging system is faulty. If the no load
voltage is too low, the battery test result may
be Good/Low Charge.
Cranking Good: indicates the starting
system is in good condition.
No Start Condition: indicates the battery is
bad or needs recharging. This result may
also appear if the battery is too small for the
machine, if the starter motor is defective, or if
the cranking resistance is excessive. Make
sure the battery size is correct and there are
no starter or engine problems.
