I have a belarus 562 with an electrical issue. Last year I had some wires that apparently shorted and melted together from the battery to the starter (3). I replaced 2 that were obvious where they went and a third wire that I believed went to a terminal just below the hood towards front of tractor. Tractor started and ran ok for several months.
This tractor doesn't get used very often and I went to start it this spring. batteries were low so had to recharge. When I went to start it, the battery on left side (looking from behind) exploded!! Never had that happen before, swapped the battery and started ok. Tractor sat for few weeks before using again and once again batteries were low. Recharged and went to start and the swapped battery exploded. Replaced the battery and started OK.
Now I'm apprehensive about even starting the tractor. Never have had a battery explode before, but to have two at the same location is kinda scary. Is that bad luck or what may be wrong. When you replace the battery it starts fine? Any help or advice. Thanks Ron
