Driving the EZRaider with the Cart
Charging the Battery (E-Cart Only)
1. Make sure that the cart’s payload is properly tied to the cart, so that it will not come
loose while driving.
2. When the cart is attached, reduce driving speed by at least 40%
3. When driving with the cart, begin by performing a test drive with an empty cart. Then
drive in reverse to test the maneuverability of the EZRaider and the cart, and the
connection between them.
4. Note that the turn radius increases when driving with the cart. Plan your route
accordingly.
5. Note that the cart is wider than the EZRaider. This should be taken into account when
planning your route through narrow passages.
6. While towing downhill, drive carefully. When the driving speed increases, let go of the
throttle and enable the regenerative braking to engage using the electrical motors. If the
driving speed continues to increase, brake using the brake levers.
1. Make sure the parking brake is engaged.
2. Make sure the main switch is OFF.
3. Open the charging port cover.
4. Insert the charging plug into the charging socket located on the left side of the E-Cart
control interface.
5. Connect the charger supply cable to a proper electrical socket.
6. A red LED confirms the battery is charging, a green LED indicates the battery is full.
7. After finishing the charging process, disconnect the charger from the electrical socket,
and afterwards, disconnect the charging plug from the E-Cart.
8. Close the charge port cover.
WARNING
1. When connecting the charger to the battery, sparks may be emitted.
2. The E-Cart uses a lithium-based battery, and a matched charger. Do not use batteries
and chargers that are not supplied by DSRaider.
3. The charger is enclosed in an aluminum box, which helps dissipate excess heat. To
prevent overheating, do not cover the charger while charging.
4. The charger should be located in a dry, well-ventilated area.
5. Pay attention to the polarity of direct current wires:
Brown – positive (+), Blue – negative (-).
