KINROAD 150 SERVICE MANUAL
CHARGING SYSTEM INSPECTION
ELECTRIC LEAKAGE TESTING
Turn the main switch to the "OFF" position.
Disconnect the negative ground wire from the battery.
Connect the positive end of the ammeter with the negative end of the battery.
Connect the negative end of the ammeter with the ground wire.
Test the electric leakage. In general, it demands the number less than 1mA; if it is unusual, inspect if there
is short circuit of the main switch and the main wiring.
CHARGING STATUS INSPECTION
Install the fully charged battery.
Connect the voltmeter between the binding posts of the battery.
Remove the fuse, and connect the ammeter with two ends of the fuse.
Connect the tachometer with the engine (it's not needed when there is rpm indicator on the vehicle).
Start the engine, and accelerate slowly; measure the charging voltage and current.
*Measuring condition: 5000 r/min
If the voltage is not in the range of the above-specified value, please inspect the voltage regulator.
BATTERY
The battery is an important component of the electric system. This battery used on the vehicle is a
maintenance-free battery. For long period of storage, the battery will discharge by itself, so it should be
charged every 3 month. After 2 - 3 years of regular usage, the capacity of the battery will descend, so it will
need charging. Replace the same type of battery when replacing.
BATTERY REMOVAL
Shut down the main switch to make sure no electric current goes through the vehicle.
Disconnect the negative battery lead wire first.
Disconnect the positive battery second.
The disconnecting order cannot be reversed.
When disconnecting the positive cable, do not touch the body of the vehicle with the removal tool;
BATTERY INSTALLATION
otherwise short circuit will occur and ignite gas to damage the battery.
