NOTE:
On the mechanical brake system, the service
brake pedal is combined with the parking brake pedal.
Parking Brake Pedal:
The parking brake pedal is used in braking for parking. The
parking brake of the mechanical brake system is different from hydraulic brake sys-
tem. The parking brake of mechanical brake system is engaged by foot as shown
in above picture (refer to ‘Mechanical Brake’). The parking brake of the hydraulic
brake system is engaged by hand as shown in the figure below. The parking brake
should be engaged into parking position whenever the vehicle is left unattended.
How to engage and disengage the parking brake
Mechanical brake system
•
To engage the parking brake, press down the service brake pedal com-
pletely, then press down the parking brake pedal until it locks.
•
To disengage the parking brake, press down the service brake pedal until
the parking brake pedal is unlocked.
• WARNING:
The foot park brake will automatically release when the accel-
erator pedal is stepped down. If the power key is in ON position, stepping
down the accelerator pedal may suddenly cause the vehicle to move.
Hydraulic brake system
•
To engage the parking brake, pull up the hand brake lever to the end.
•
To disengage the parking brake, pull the hand brake lever up completely
and press the button on the top of the brake lever. Return the brake lever
to the down position.
• WARNING:
Always release the brake handle completely before driving the
vehicle. Do not press both the brake pedal and the accelerator together;
this will damage the motor.
Steering Wheel:
The steering wheel is used to control the driving direction. Avoid
sudden and sharp turns.
Battery Power Meter:
There are 10 calibration marks on the meter. The meter will
decline from the top to the bottom as the battery discharges. When the battery is
too low, the red indicator light will flash, reminding you to recharge the battery.
NOTE:
Refer to your Battery Charger’s Owners Manual for how to recharge the bat-
teries.
