Case IH 485XL Extra Battery Notes

Replacement note For the Case IH 485XL, match the replacement battery to the captured spec: 12 V, Group 31. Physical fit, terminal layout and hold-down fit still matter
Battery location The battery on the Case IH 485XL tractor is located under the seat. This design allows for easier access compared to some other tractor models
Battery replacement steps To replace the battery on a Case IH 485XL tractor, locate and open the battery compartment, usually near the engine. Disconnect the negative (black) terminal first, then the positive (red) terminal, remove the old battery, insert the new battery, and reconnect the terminals in the reverse order
Safe removal note Disconnect the negative cable first, then disconnect the positive cable. Install the new battery, connect the positive cable first, then reconnect the negative cable last. That reduces the chance of shorting a tool against the frame
Official information note

Mistakes do happen. Battery specs can change by year, engine, market, terminal layout and installed options. Check the old battery label, operator manual, parts book and official caseih.com website before ordering a replacement battery.
