5. Remove the negative terminal from the battery.

6. Take the red cover off the positive terminal.
7. Unscrew the bolt to remove the positive terminal.
8. Loosening the screws of the terminal can be difficult. In the first picture, I used pliers to help loosen up the screw holding the terminal tight.

9. Disconnect the battery's terminals from the battery, and remove the old battery.
