Ditto! I've replaced 2 batteries and I've always had to wiggle them up and through the crossbrace opening leaving a lot of my skin with it. putting them in was easier as I had gravity's help. still, more skin. definitely gonna' try this procedure next time!
thanks rollamo!

Loosened the two bottom screws and took out the top screws on the side panel. Leaned the panel out and also took the two screws that hold the cruise unit and moved it out of the way. Loosened the screw holding the battery down, took off the terminals connections and the battery comes up and out on a angle. Under a hour to do when you add the beer breaks. Not very hard - though it depends on the duration of the beer breaks.
