Maintenance - General Information
The vehicle should be checked for damage, missing or badly worn parts before each
use.
• Check the tightness of the fasteners before each use.
• Check the tightness of the wheels:
• Note: If the drive wheel is not tight, it will not engage the gears and the vehicle
will not run.
• Use a flat head screwdriver to remove the hubcaps.
• Ensure the axle is fully engaged in the lock nut.
• Replace the hubcaps.
• Ensure the battery bracket is securely in place before use.
• Store the vehicle indoors. Keep it away from sources of heat, such as stoves and
heaters.
• Clean the vehicle with a soft, dry cloth. To restore shine to plastic parts, use a non-
wax furniture polish. Do not use automotive wax, abrasive cleaners or wash the
vehicle with soap and water.
WARNING
Drive Battery
Only an adult who has read and understands the safety warnings should handle,
charge or recharge the battery. Failure to comply with all safety warnings may result
in serious injury or death.
Battery Fuse
The drive motor circuit features a thermal fuse that will automatically trip and cut all
power to the vehicle if the motor, electric system or battery is overloaded. The fuse
will reset and power will be restored after the unit is turned OFF for approximately
five minutes. If the thermal fuse trips repeatedly during normal use, the vehicle may
need repair.
To avoid losing power, follow these guidelines:
• Do not overload the vehicle.
• Do not tow anything behind the vehicle.
• Do not drive up steep slopes.
• Do not drive into fixed objects, which may cause the wheels to spin, causing the
motor to overheat.
• Do not drive in very hot weather, components may overheat.
• Do not allow water or other liquids to come in contact with the battery or other
electric components.
• Do not tamper with the electrical system. Doing so may create a short, causing
the fuse to trip.
