The cable with the Red cover is Positive +

Red is positive, black is negative. Easy way to remember it is to think of
"Red Cross", positive will be either red or have a cross + on it or both.


... the positive post on the battery is larger in diameter than the
negative post...

batteries that have the same size post.


This battery is a BCI Group U1. Does not use automotive type posts.
Cables have ring lugs. Uses a nut and bolt for attachment to battery
lug. See pic at

Okay. From the photo, and I cannot tell, is one bigger than the
other? Suggesting positive +. I agree the best way is to check for
the + sign on the battery.
