Each sixteen cell set of batteries is packed in two shipping crates.
One crate, which is stenciled "No. 1" contains:
- 8 Cells.
- 18 Bolt Connectors.
- 1 Hydrometer Syringe.
- 1 Instruction Book.
The other crate which is stenciled "No. 2" contains: 8 Cells
(NOTE:--If the batteries are re-shipped by the manufacturer or distributor, care must be exercised to see that they are sent out in sets.)
Unpacking
Remove the boards from the tops of the shipping crates and the excelsior which is above the cells.
To straighten the long top connector, grasp the strap firmly with the left hand close to the pillar post and raise the outer end of the strap until it is in an upright position. Do not make a short bend near the pillar post. Lift the cells from the case by grasping the glass jars. Do not attempt to lift them by means of the top connectors.
Clean the outside of the cells by wiping with a damp cloth.
