Repair and Service Manual
Read all of Section B and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions and Warnings.
B
starter/generator may not be adequate to maintain bat-
tery charge. In this situation, the battery may require
charging with a 12V 10 amp max charger.
Observe all instructions provided by the manufacturer of
the charger.
SERVICING THE VEHICLE
To prevent severe injury or death, resulting
from improper servicing techniques, observe
the following WARNINGS:
DO NOT attempt any type of servicing
operations before reading and understand-
ing all notes, cautions and warnings in this
manual.
ANY servicing requiring adjustments to be
made to the powertrain while the motor is
running must be made with both drive
wheels raised.
Wear eye protection when
working on the vehicle. Use
extra care when working
around batteries, or using
solvents or compressed air.
To reduce the possibility of causing an
electrical arc, which could result in a battery
explosion, turn off all electrical loads from
the batteries before removing any heavy
gauge battery wires.
To prevent the possibility of motor disinte-
gration, never operate vehicle at full throttle
for more than 4 - 5 seconds while vehicle is
in a “no load” condition.
It is in the best interest of both vehicle owner and servic-
ing dealer, to carefully follow the procedures recom-
mended in this manual. Adequate preventative mainte-
nance, applied at regular intervals, is the best guarantee
for keeping the
vehicle both dependable and economi-
cal.
In any product, components will eventually fail to per-
form properly as the result of normal use, age, wear or
abuse.
It is virtually impossible to anticipate all possible compo-
nent failures or the manner in which each component
may fail.
A vehicle requiring repair indicates the vehicle is no
longer functioning as designed and should be consid-
ered potentially hazardous. Use extreme care when
working on a vehicle. When diagnosing, removing or re-
placing any components that are not operating properly,
consider the safety of yourself and those around you,
should the component move unexpectedly.
Some components are heavy, spring loaded, highly cor-
rosive, explosive, may produce amperage or reach high
temperatures. Gasoline, carbon monoxide, battery acid
and hydrogen gas could result in serious bodily injury to
the technician/mechanic and bystanders, if not treated
with the utmost caution. Be careful not to place hands,
face, feet or body in a location that could expose them
to injury should an unforeseen dangerous situation oc-
cur.
Fig. 4 Initial Service Chart

mended the items shown in the INITIAL SERVICE
CHART be performed.
TOWING
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death:
Use extra caution when towing a vehicle.
DO NOT ride on the vehicle being towed.
DO NOT attempt to tow the vehicle with
ropes, chains or any device other than a
factory approved tow bar.
DO NOT tow the vehicle on highways.
DO NOT tow a single vehicle at speeds in
excess of 12 mph (19 kph).
