NO"MIX FOR BATTERY CELLS
Stop here a minute if you're about
to request replacement cells Fr the
BB-693/U battery used with your
Vulcan ADA rig.
±irst o², new cells are in the supply
systeM, sO you no longer order the
BB³600/ A ceLL ±SN 6140³842-0433
(Gulton); ±SN 6´40-881³6889
±SN 6´40µ

¶·¸¹ ,º» •¼
Instead, you order ±SN 6´40-408"4937 Fr aLL batteries manu¶ctured
by GeneraL ELectric, and ±SN 6´40-408·4936 for batteries made by
Sonotone. THe Sonotone cells may be marked either witH ¸Sonotone¹
or º»arathon¼½
And tHere, of course, ¾s the rub. You cannot and should not put
GE ceLLs in a Sonotone battery .
.. or Sonotone/»arathon celLs in a GE
ba¿tery. THe new ceLLs are identicaL to those in the original batteriesÀ
So, Know whicH battery you need the ceLls Fr, and order just enough

ceLLs to reÄuiLd the battery. SuppLy is tight.
