noise and swell slightly while charging

It is possible that only one rear wheel may
spin when both rear wheels are raised off
the ground and the vehicle is in low speed.
This does not necessarily indicate a problem.

by raising the rear wheels off the ground
and pressing the foot pedal. If only one rear
wheel spins, carefully press your hand on the
spinning wheel to slow it down. The other rear
wheel should begin to spin. If the other rear
wheel does not begin to spin, there may be
