Battery charging:
1. The battery is the most important part of your Transporter. To ensure good performance -
proper usage and maintenance will maximise battery life.
2. Over-discharging of batteries should be avoided at all times. Batteries should always be
re-charged ready for riding. If not used for a period of 30 days, batteries should be re-
charged fully.
3. After usage and when tricycle is not in use always be sure to turn Power off via KPA
Remote Unit or key and remove key from switch.
4. If the ‘Battery Status Gauge’ drops to half way - this means that batteries need to be
immediately re-charged. Continuing to ride whilst battery ‘charge’ is low can cause severe
battery damage.
5. To use battery charger, first insert the plug into charging socket on side of battery box.
Next insert plug into 240V power supply. After the charger is connected properly, turn on
240V AC supply. To disconnect after charging, turn off 240V AC supply, remove plug from
240V socket then pull out plug from Tricycle or battery socket.

terrain, prevailing climatic conditions, style of riding etc. Be observant of your battery
performance and never try to achieve more than your batteries are capable of delivering.

Adjustment & Maintenance
1. As a general rule to ensure longevity and good performance of your Transporter, have it
regularly serviced by a qualified and experienced tricycle mechanic.
2. There is no specific maintenance required on your electrical components. Simply re-
charge your batteries after each ride to ensure longest possible life.
3. Adjustment of the height of saddle. Loosen quick release on seat tube and adjust saddle
to a suitable height. The raised height of the saddle cannot exceed the height marked with
minimum insertion mark on saddle stem.

properly adjusted at all times.
5. Regular checking of spoke tension and wheel alignment can also ensure maximum
performance of your Tricycle.
