VEHICLE WITH A DISCHARGED BATTERY
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from inadvertent motion, do not attempt to
‘jump start’ a vehicle.
The vehicle is equipped with a starter/generator and does not idle. When starting the engine, the starter/generator functions
as a starter and with the engine running, it functions as a generator.
With the short running times associated with this kind of vehicle, the generator is more than adequate to maintain the battery
charge level. The generator is not designed to charge a discharged battery.
When engine starts, the clutches engage and cause vehicle to move making ‘jump starting’ both dangerous and impractical.
If the vehicle battery has become discharged, it must be charged using a 12 volt charger that is rated at 10 amps or less. Read
and understand all instructions provided by the manufacturer of the charger.
TRANSPORTING VEHICLE
TOWING
This vehicle is not designed to be towed
It is recommended that the vehicle be moved by placing the entire vehicle on a trailer, flatbed truck or other suitable transport.
NEUTRAL LOCK
To prevent the driven clutch from turning the rear wheels during service operations, a neutral lock is located on the direction
selector
To operate:
Turn key switch to ‘OFF’ and lift seat. Pull out and rotate the neutral lock pin handle so that the pointed portion of the handle is
to the side of the direction selector cam. Move direction selector towards the area between ‘F’ and ‘R’. During that motion the
pin will snap into the hole in the direction selector mounting bracket preventing any movement. When in this position, the
direction selector remains locked in the neutral position. To unlock the direction selector, pull the neutral lock pin handle out
and rotate until the pointed portion of the handle fits into the hole in the direction selector cam.
