that could cause an electrical arc.
Before a new vehicle is put into operation, the items
shown in the INITIAL SERVICE CHART must be per-
formed (Ref. Fig. 4).
The vehicle batteries must be fully charged before initial
use.
Check for correct tire inflation. See GENERAL SPECIFI-
CATIONS.
Determine and record the braking distance required to
stop the vehicle for future brake performance tests.
Remove the protective clear plastic from the seat bot-
tom and back rest before placing the vehicle in service
.

PORTABLE CHARGER
PORTABLE CHARGER INSTALLATION
Use charger ONLY on 48 volt battery systems.
Other usage may cause personal injury and
damage. Lead acid batteries may generate
explosive hydrogen gas during normal opera-
tion. Keep sparks, flames, and smoking mate-
rials away from batteries. Provide adequate
ventilation during charging. Never charge a
frozen battery. Study all battery manufacturers’
specific precautions such as recommended
rates of charge and removing or not removing
cell caps while charging.
Risk of electric shock. Connect charger power
cord to an outlet that has been properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances. A grounded outlet
is required to reduce risk of electric shock – do
not use ground adapters or modify plug. Do
not touch uninsulated portion of output con-
nector or uninsulated battery terminal. Discon-
nect the DC supply before making or breaking
the connections to the battery while charging.
Do not open or disassemble charger. Do not
operate charger if the AC supply cord is dam-
aged or if the charger has received a sharp
blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in
any way – refer all repair work to qualified per-
sonnel. Not for use by children.
Portable chargers are shipped with the vehicles. Prior to
vehicle or charger operation, the charger
must
be re-
moved and mounted on a platform or wall above the
ground to permit maximum air flow around and under-
neath the charger.
A dedicated circuit is required for
the charger.
Refer to the charger manual for appropri-
ate circuit protection. For optimum performance and
shortest charge times, place the charger in an area with
adequate ventilation. The charger should also be placed
in an area that will be relatively free of dirt, mud, or dust
since accumulations within the fins of the charger will
reduce their heat-dissipating qualities. Optimal cooling
also occurs when the charger is placed on a horizontal
surface with the fins vertical. More airflow from below
the charger will help cool the fins, so placement above
open areas or areas with cut-outs for airflow is desir-
able. If the charger is operated in an outdoor location,
rain and sun protection must be provided. The charger
may get hot during operation and must be placed such
that risk of contact by people is reduced. The charger
may be mounted on a wall or shelf using #10-M5
screws. The charger’s status display must be visible to
the user.
