Checking the General Condition
For maintenance operations, consult your authorized dealer who has all the necessary information. Once a year have the authorized
dealer inspect your vehicle thoroughly and carry out in depth maintenance. Regular maintenance allows defective or worn parts to
be identified and improves the normal operation of the vehicle and extends its working life.
Removing the Rear Cover
The Amigo RD and HD units have a hinged rear cover (Figure 14), which can be opened once the seat
is removed. To open cover, tilt the handle fully forward to prevent scratching the rear cover on the
handle screws. Remove rubber boot from lower seat post, pull cover off of the pins in the rear, lift the
cover over the seat post and tilt cover forward. To close cover, reposition the handle to a comfortable
position. Simply tilt cover rearward, guide cover over the seat post, and place cover on the pins in the
rear. Ensure that the power cord is fully retracted after the cover is closed.
Lighting
The Amigo is equipped with a headlight, and with optional tail lights and turn signals. To access the bulb on a standard headlight,
pull the headlight lens out of the cover, by gently prying the rubber seal. To access the bulb on a high intensity headlight, remove
two screws holding the lens assembly in place. To remove the headlight bulb, twist the connector counterclockwise and remove from
lens. Bulb comes straight out of fixture (do not twist bulbs) and should be replaced in reverse order. The rear turn signals and tail
lights must be completely replaced.
Battery Maintenance
VRLA deep cycle batteries are used for operating your Amigo. They are maintenance-free and are transportable on aircraft, buses,
trains, etc. as there is no danger of spillage. By following the charger and battery procedures, you can expect extended battery life.
Fasteners Replacement
Use only Grade 8 (US) or 10.9 DIN (metric) in all applications (Figure 15). For service and
replacement parts, we recommend Amigo authorized parts.
Transaxle Drive Systems
The transaxle drive is a precision assembly lubricated for long service. Do not attempt to open or
service the assembly, this will void the warranty.
Microprocessor Controller
Do not attempt to service the controller or related electronic components, as this will void the warranty.
Circuit Breaker Replacement Instructions
An automatic resetting circuit breaker (Figure 16) protects the wiring and batteries in the event of a short
circuit. If the cart stops, check for overloads or short circuits before continuing to operate. The circuit
breaker is located under the rear cover and attached to the positive terminal on the batteries. Tampering
with electrical or mechanical parts will invalidate your warranty.
DO NOT CONTINUE TO OPERATE THE AMIGO UNTIL THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS REPAIRED.
