The fuse mounting is fragile.
IMPORTANT
Poor contact due to poor tightening may lead to
problems at ignition or charging, create sparks,
expose the battery and lead to acid spillages.

much, as the tray may deform or break.
Insufficient tightening of the battery clamp allows
movement, and the battery tray may wear from
friction or break from an impact and cause acid
spillages.
