BATTERY SYSTEM
Stud Terminal
The stud terminal is typically used on heavy duty batter-
ies. The terminals have a stainless steel threaded stud
embedded in them that the connections are made to.
Combination Terminal
The combination terminals come in a few different
configurations. The two most common configurations
are the “side by side” and the stacked. In the side by
side there is a tapered top terminal with a stud terminal
right next to it. In the stacked configuration the stain-
less steel stud is embedded into the taper top terminal.
The combination terminals make it possible to use the
battery with a variety of equipment without having to
change the cables on it. CAUTION: The “stacked type”
combination battery terminals are very tall in compari-
son to all other configurations. Make sure to check all
clearances before trying to close a cover or a tank on
top of these types of batteries.
The “L” Terminal
The “L” type terminal is used on many special applica-
tion batteries.
