Typhon Terror XVII with cab.

   / Typhon Terror XVII with cab. #51  
Edit 6/29: Well it is worse than I thought. 3 6mm Allen screws and some prying and the plate comes off but the battery is behind welded bars. It seems the left side panel (blue) would also need to come off and to do that it looks like the cab has to be pulled off first. At some point in the future I expect to modify the left side panel so that access to battery would be possible without lifting cab off first. Likely cut off the metal portion next to the fuel sight gauge and maybe hinge it for opening.
Thanks very much MattB4 for posting your experience with this mini ex. I bought the same model about the same time as you but have still used it very little. The battery position is incredibly dumb. I asked Typhon Machinery how to remove the battery and they sent instructions for the open model. When I pointed out that their instructions didn't work for the cab model, they admitted that the cab had to be lifted to remove the side panel to get to the battery. They sent a video link. Hopefully it works on this forum (a Google drive download): 3453_1761635669.mp4.zip
It skips over what to do with the wiring. However, I think the cab only needs to be lifted a few inches to get to the side panel bolts so it may not be necessary to disconnect the wires.
