Question 2021 Beyond Chassis Battery Access

[Jktexaa]

Just purchased used 2021 Beyond 22c. No documentation for Coachmen or Ford - not even one remote control and dealer was no help. Trying to research everything.
Accessing the generator UNDER the unit in itself is going to be interesting but my current problem is the battery and battery shelf.
The unit has 18000 miles on it. The battery shelf is rusting. I need to get to it so I can see the amount of damage and try to figure out WHY it has rusted.
How do you access the battery that is under the right side across from the generator?

Thank you - I will. Just thought of a place to look. When I find out I will post it in case someone else is looking for it

Took awhile to find the answer - heard from Craftsmen. ..."As far as the battery, here in our service department we use a floor jack with a wooden plate to put under the battery to lift battery up just enough to take the pressure off of the brackets the battery rest on. You then remove the bolts and then lower the battery down."

Not something I would feel safe in doing myself as those batteries are heavy.
