‹› Using the (VAS 6410), service work can be performed in the area of the contact sensor on the threaded connection wiring harnesses in the high

current circuit (starter and charging current).

‹› The gray sanding pads are for slight contamination and suitable for "soft surfaces". The red sanding pads are for heavy contamination and suitable

for "hard surfaces".

Wiring Eyelets, Servicing

‹› Do not use rust remover, contact spray or grease because the lack of friction will cause the torque to be exceeded when installing and this will lead

to the threaded connection breaking.

CAUTION!
Risk of injury.

‹› Observe warning notes and safety precautions. Refer to => [ Lead Acid Battery Warnings and Safety Precautions ] See: Starting and
