GL-3 gear oil.
VI. BATTERY

looseness can cause potential damage to the circuit virtual access.
b. It is recommended that you do not discharge the battery to less than 20%.

c. If the battery shows signs of warping or becomes very hot, stop use
immediately.
VII.
STORAGE OF YOUR ETRIKE/CHARGER
a. Store under cover that protects the eTrike from prolonged exposure to the
elements; such exposure can cause mechanical failure and decrease the
service life of your eTrike.
b. When storing your eTrike for an extended period, charge the battery at least
once per month. The recommended storage temperature is 60 degrees
Fahrenheit and at 40% battery capacity.
NOTE: Storing your battery in temperatures below 32 degrees Fahrenheit or
above 97 degrees Fahrenheit can limit your battery life.
c. Charger Storage
When not in use, store the charger in a dry, cool and clean place, taking care
to insure the ventilation holes do not become clogged by dust or other debris.
