Don't do that at all!!!!! With in doing that, you will not only happen to ruin the motor or battery, but if there is a shirt in the motor, this is the same thing as just placing a solid wire across two battery terminals, that will cause a short. Also with a short circuit on a battery directly, this can cause the battery to have too much current flowing through it and will cause the battery to most likely explode and or ignite on fire... Common physics and electrics never make a direct connection across a battery without a breaker or an output with resistance in series.
I have done this before besides a little bit of sparks nothing really was destroyed. The only time you risk destroying a battery from hooking it up to a motor is if you stall the motor. Then again stalling the motor is just as likely to destroy the motor before the battery. It seems very hard to make an SLA acid battery explode. I have read horror stories about people abusing there batteries and all the battery would do is stink, and expand a lot.
