See figure 25 on page 34.
• Make certain that the speed adjustment dial is at the desired setting.
• Make certain that the key switch is set to the “On” position.
If none of the above procedures solve the problem, contact your authorized Golden
Technologies, Inc. provider.
MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER
The main circuit breaker reset button is located on the battery pack. See figure 25 on
page 34.
WARNING!
Do not attempt electrical repairs. Consult Golden Technologies, Inc.
or your authorized Golden Technologies, Inc. provider. If, for no apparent reason,
your Buzzaround XL stops operating, the main circuit breaker may have tripped.
Possible causes for the main circuit breaker to trip:
• Driving up a long, steep hill.
• Driving over a curb.
• Run-down batteries.
• Exceeding the maximum weight capacity of the scooter.
As you operate your Buzzaround XL, battery voltages go down and battery current must
rise to satisfy the demands of the motor and of other electrical devices operating on your
scooter. This can cause a heavy current draw that will trip the main circuit breaker.
Remedy:
• Recharge your Buzzaround XL’s batteries. See “Charger and Batteries” in this section of
this manual.
• If the problem continues, have your authorized Golden Technologies, Inc. provider load
test the batteries.
• If the batteries are good, the charger may be the problem. Consult your authorized
Golden Technologies, Inc. provider.
Resetting the Main Circuit Breaker
1. If the main circuit breaker trips as a result of run-down batteries or because of a
temporary overload, reset the circuit breaker:
2. Wait ten minutes or so for the motor control board to return to the normal operating
temperature range.
3. Make certain that the key switch is set to the “Off” position.
4. Press in on the main circuit breaker reset button. See figure 25 on page 34.
