SECTION 11–ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND TESTING
GENERAL INFORMATION
The PowerDrive Plus vehicle uses a 48-volt electrical system that is powered by six eight-volt lead-acid batteries and
includes an onboard computer. The electrical system in a PowerDrive Plus vehicle uses a shunt wound 3.2 hp motor
and includes several additional features.
• Shunt Wound Motor : Unlike a series wound motor which increases or decreases the current flow (amperage)
through the armature and field coils at the same rate, a shunt wound motor is able to vary the amount of
amperage passing through the field coils separately from the current flow passing through the armature.
• Motor Braking: Under certain conditions a shunt wound motor also has the ability to act as an electrical
brake to slow the vehicle. There are three features of the PowerDrive Plus electrical system which will activate
the motor braking function: Zero Speed Detect , Pedal Down Motor Braking , and Pedal Up Motor Braking.
• THE BATTERY WIRES MUST REMAIN CONNECTED WHILE PERFORMING SOME TEST PROCEDURES.
• RAISE THE REAR END OF THE VEHICLE AND SUPPORT ON JACKSTANDS. REAR WHEELS SHOULD
BE OFF THE GROUND WHILE PERFORMING ALL TEST PROCEDURES.
• BATTERY - EXPLOSIVE GASES! DO NOT SMOKE. KEEP SPARKS AND FLAMES AWAY. VENTILATE
WHEN CHARGING OR USING IN AN ENCLOSED SPACE. ALWAYS WEAR FULL FACE SHIELD WHEN
WORKING ON OR NEAR BATTERIES.
• USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN USING TOOLS, WIRES, OR METAL OBJECTS NEAR BATTERIES! A
SHORT CIRCUIT AND (OR) SPARK COULD CAUSE AN EXPLOSION.
• BATTERY - POISON! CONTAINS ACID! CAUSES SEVERE BURNS. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN, EYES,
OR CLOTHING. ANTIDOTES:
- EXTERNAL: FLUSH WITH WATER. CALL A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
- INTERNAL: DRINK LARGE QUANTITIES OF MILK OR WATER. FOLLOW WITH MILK OF MAGNESIA OR
VEGETABLE OIL. CALL A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
- EYES: FLUSH WITH WATER FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES. CALL PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
• ONLY TRAINED TECHNICIANS SHOULD REPAIR OR SERVICE THIS VEHICLE. ANYONE DOING EVEN SIMPLE REPAIRS
OR SERVICE SHOULD HAVE KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE IN GENERAL MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL REPAIR.
FOLLOW ALL PROCEDURES EXACTLY AND HEED ALL WARNINGS STATED IN THIS MANUAL.
• ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES OR APPROVED EYE PROTECTION WHILE SERVICING VEHICLE.
• TURN KEY SWITCH OFF , PLACE FORWARD/REVERSE ROCKER SWITCH IN THE NEUTRAL POSITION, AND REMOVE
KEY PRIOR TO SERVICING.
• DO NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING. REMOVE JEWELRY SUCH AS RINGS, WATCHES, CHAINS, ETC. BEFORE
SERVICING VEHICLE.
• ALWAYS USE INSULATED TOOLS WHEN WORKING NEAR BATTERIES OR ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS. WHEN
BATTERIES ARE CONNECTED, USE EXTREME CAUTION TO AVOID SHORTING OF COMPONENTS OR WIRING.
• TO AVOID UNINTENTIONALLY STARTING THE VEHICLE, PLACE TOW/RUN SWITCH IN TOW , THEN DISCONNECT
BATTERIES AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 11-9, PAGE 11-10 WHEN PERFORMING TESTS THAT DO NOT REQUIRE THE
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO BE ENERGIZED.
