How to Install a Battery on a John Deere Perego

For years, John Deere and Peg Perego have teamed up to produce a series of battery-operated, ride-on utility vehicles for children. The line includes replica mowers and trailers, farm tractors, a power-lift Gator and construction equipment with working front-loader scoops. Regardless of the model, the process to install a battery on a John Deere Peg Perego remains similar. The 12-volt battery is fastened into place, safely away from the little fingers of young children.

On other models this means fastening the battery with a brace held on by two screws; use a screwdriver to tighten these screws. Consult your owner's manual for specific procedures for your model.
