Interesting that the Group 26 battery has the positive and negative poles reversed from the way it should be.
The group 24 battery has this same problem and has also been recommended for this cart.

When you install the battery with the positive pole toward the front of the cart, the battery cables must be crossed to connect correctly.

It works but makes it too easy to connect wrong.
Amazingly this cart will work with the poles reversed.
But I suspect the generator does not charge the battery all the way when reversed.

I speak from experience because I had the connections reversed for two years before I realized it was wrong (when I installed a new battery).

I have the 9 HP Vanguard engine.
