MOUNTING / REMOVING THE BATTERIES
There is an area within the footboard (1 – Figure 7) that accommodates the nickel-
zinc batteries. There are two sets of batteries that in turn contain two 12 V batteries
each (1 / 2 – Figure 7/a), held in a metal frame.
NOTE:
There is an OXYGEN sticker with pertinent numbering information on each
battery. When the batteries are put back in, they must be placed in
numbered sequence.
Remove the case cover (2 - Figure 7) from the scooter to access the batteries. The
case cover is attached in the front with a lock (3 - Figure 7) and a notch in the back.
Press down on the front of the rod that holds the battery (4 - Figure 7), in place to
disconnect it from the fastening clamp (5 - Figure 7)
The batteries are placed in positive and negative sets on the second battery pack (2
–- Figure 7/a) (3 – Figure 7/a), and via the two bridges that connect the two cells (4 / 5
– Figure 7/a). The batteries contain a total of 48 volts (Figure 7/a).
WARNING! In some cases the positive (+) and negative (–) poles are reversed in
respect to their placement in the diagram (Figure 7/a) on the
following page, so clean the terminals to certify that the red
(positive) cable is connected to the red terminal and the black
(negative) cable is connected to the black battery terminal.
