Reflect on activity:

Correct remove and refitting battery. when refitting battery, turn the screws to tighten and correct position is very important, to avoid battery movement. Fit Positive first (Red one), because it reduces the chance of shorting the battery out which could cause the battery to explode.

Start by taking removing the negative:

Once the negative terminal has been slackened remove it and tuck it away so it can't touch the terminal again whilst you are loosening the positive.

Remove the positive terminal connector (red wire) on the other end.
