One of us should check the parts book to see if 33 and 34 use the same battery retainers. If so, yes it's a bit unusual - there are a pair of them, each drops down over one of the threaded rods and just grasps the battery lip at that particular edge. I believe I have a spare someowhere that I've loaned to people from time to time to fabricate duplicates.
If indeed you confirm 33 and 34 are the same, I'll be glad to take a picture of it for you. PS - of course if the battery you have in the battery box is a different size that the OEM battery, the battery hold down I described above will probably not fit; in that case you can just fabricate a traditional hold down frame and fabricate it with the "ears" to fit the threaded rods.

The parts book lists different numbers for each 10th and 11th series model for "Frame battery suppor front assembly" and "Frame battery support rear assembly". No pictures are shown in the parts manual, so I still cannot visualize what the proper system is. I will attempt to take a picture of my set up. I believe that I have a Group 1 6V battery, but will verify the measurements. It does seem small for the battery box size.

The parts manual also shows:
201455 "Electrical battery retaining clamp" 1 req'd for 1001-2-3-4 215351 Electrical battery retaining clamp 2 req'd for 11th, 12th series So, the battery hold down must be different for 10th vs later. I will get a picture posted later. THANKS for the help, as always.
