Important Notes

• Verify compatibility with your specific Homelite equipment model, UT number, manufacturing number, serial number, battery configuration, and production revision before ordering.
• Homelite identifies S542903-017 as a Battery Bracket.
• Match part number S542903-017 directly with the number shown in your equipment's illustrated parts diagram or OEM documentation.
• This component is a battery mounting bracket and should not be confused with the battery itself, battery tray, battery cover, terminal bracket, hold-down strap, or complete battery assembly.
• Do not assume that the battery, tray, cables, terminals, bolts, nuts, washers, spacers, or other mounting hardware are included unless explicitly specified.
• Do not substitute a universal battery bracket based solely on approximate dimensions or appearance.
• Battery brackets can differ in length, width, shape, mounting-hole locations, material, finish, battery clearance, and retention method.
• Inspect the battery tray, chassis mounting points, fasteners, battery cables, terminals, connectors, and surrounding components when replacing the bracket.
• If the original bracket is heavily corroded, inspect the battery and surrounding area for signs of electrolyte leakage, moisture exposure, or corrosion.
• Replace cracked, leaking, swollen, physically damaged, or otherwise unsafe batteries according to the equipment and battery manufacturer's procedures.
• If the original bracket was bent or broken due to excessive battery movement, inspect all associated retaining hardware before installing the replacement.
• Clean dirt, corrosion, and debris from the battery mounting area before installation.
• Install S542903-017 in the same factory location and orientation as the original component.
• Make sure the battery is correctly positioned before securing the bracket.
• The bracket should retain the battery securely without crushing, puncturing, or otherwise damaging the battery case.
• Verify that battery terminals and cables maintain adequate clearance from metal brackets, chassis components, and other potential short-circuit points.
• Route battery cables in their original factory positions and keep them away from sharp edges, hot surfaces, and moving components.
• Ensure all associated mounting hardware is securely installed according to manufacturer specifications.
• When servicing the battery system, prevent tools or conductive objects from bridging the battery terminals.
• Follow the equipment manufacturer's specified battery-disconnection and reconnection sequence during service.
• After installation, verify that the battery is securely retained and does not shift excessively during normal equipment movement.
• This listing is for one Homelite S542903-017 Battery Bracket only unless otherwise specified. Batteries, trays, cables, terminals, covers, straps, bolts, nuts, washers, and other electrical or mounting components are sold separately.
• Match part number S542903-017 with your equipment's illustrated parts diagram or OEM documentation before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
