- Cat 3699957 battery replacement
Typical warning signs on a mini excavator or similar is a starter motor that turns over more slowly than it used to, especially first thing on a cold morning. A battery that's on its way out will also struggle to hold charge overnight, leaving the machine needing a jump start even after a full day's run time keeping it topped up.
Being sealed and maintenance-free, there's no electrolyte to check or top up, but it's still worth giving the battery a full charge after a heavy day's work and putting it on a maintenance charger at least once a month during any spell the excavator sits idle, a flat battery left standing loses capacity far faster than one that's kept topped up, and a weak start is usually the first sign of it.
