Case IH 255 Extra Battery Notes
| Replacement note | For the Case IH 255, match the replacement battery to the captured spec: 12 V, Group 31, 500 CCA. Physical fit, terminal layout and hold-down fit still matter |
|---|---|
| Battery location | The battery on the Case IH 255 tractor is located underneath a large, cylindrical air cleaner that sits horizontally on top of the battery. Accessing it may require removing the air cleaner and dealing with a complex electrical system |
| 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
