Removal
1. Raise the seat lift and remove the cover.
See page 7.
2. Remove the foot plate and disconnect the
cable from the potentiometer. See page 32.

front lights, one contact for each front light.
See the figure to the right.
4. Loosen the visible cable ties in the front wheel
assembly.
NB. Note how the cable is tied to the chassis

expander bar between the front wheel
assembly and the chassis.
Cut away all cable ties which fix the cable back
to the jack panel.
NB. Note how the cable is attached to the
steering wire. See the figure to the right.

assembly, one contact for each front light, and
pull the cable down to the potentiometer.
Connect the contact to the potentiometer and
tie the cable in place in the mounting.

wheel assembly and back to the jack panel.
See the figures to the right.
Tie the cable to the steering wire in the rear
wheel assembly as shown in the figure to the right.
NB. No cable tie must be mounted so that it
prevents the steering cable from sliding in the
cable holder (20 cm). Ensure that the brake
wires and switch cable are not tied to the
steering wire.
