As the accelerator pedal is pressed, the lever of the accelerator pedal limit switch is released by the V-Glide
wiper arm, closing that portion of the control circuit. When the accelerator pedal is fully upright, the V-Glide
wiper arm presses the accelerator pedal limit switch lever and keeps that portion of the control circuit open.
When the accelerator pedal is pressed (which closes the accelerator pedal limit switch) and the Forward/
Reverse handle is in FORWARD or REVERSE (which closes Forward/Reverse anti-arcing limit switch), and
key switch is in the ON position, the control circuit is complete. The solenoid coil (enclosed in the solenoid) will
then be activated and the solenoid power contacts will close, allowing power to reach the V-Glide wiper switch.
The reverse buzzer is a warning device that is activated when the Forward/Reverse handle is placed in
REVERSE. The reverse buzzer will sound continuously until the vehicle is shifted to NEUTRAL or FORWARD.
POWER CIRCUIT
The power circuit consists of the following:
•
V-Glide wiper switch contacts
•
Resistors
•
Forward/Reverse switch
•
Solenoid power contacts
•
Motor
•
Batteries
•
All connecting wires
The motor and batteries are discussed in separate sections in this manual.
When the control circuit is closed, the vehicle will start in first speed. As the accelerator pedal is pressed, the
brush on the wiper switch arm moves across the contacts until the last contact is reached and full speed is
attained. The V-Glide wiper switch brush and contacts conduct the motor current through or around each
resistor, thereby controlling the speed
The Forward/Reverse switch changes the direction of vehicle movement by changing the direction of electrical
current through the motor, and consequently, the direction the motor turns. By limiting maximum voltage avail-
able in REVERSE to one-half that available in FORWARD, maximum vehicle speed in REVERSE is limited to
one-half the maximum vehicle speed in FORWARD.
CHARGE CIRCUIT
The charge circuit consists of the following:
•
Battery charger
•
Charger plug
•
Charger receptacle
•
Onboard fuse link
•
Batteries
The batteries are discussed in a separate section in this manual.
charger is discussed in the battery charger maintenance and service manual.
See the appropriate battery
charger maintenance and service manual.
