Default Battery Problems

I just bought a used Spiderbox. The guy said he just put a new battery on it. It looks like a motorcycle battery. It acts like a dead battery but you can hear a clicking sound coming from the starter. I checked it with a volt meter and it reads 12 volts. I took a car battery and jump started it. Is this battery to small or is there a problem with the starting system? I have a small Optima battery on my other Spiderbox and it always delivers. This was put on by the previous owner. Do I need a battery with more cranking amps? Should I put a lawn tractor battery on there? Thanks, Roger
