Tools, instruments, and parts needed for work should be clean and readily available before any job is started. (Special tools available for servicing TANAKA equipment are listed in this manual.) o Scooter should be cleaned before repair work starts. Cleaning will often help reveal a source of trouble.
Brake pads are simply slid into place (Fig. 4), but it requires that tension be taken off of the cable to allow the new pads to be fitted. Note that the pads are not identical, and it is necessary to match the pad with the appropriate brake actuator arm. www.tanaka-usa.com custsvc@tanaka-ism.com Revison 002...
With the wheel disassembled, it is advisable to check the integrity of the two ball bearings that ride within the hub of the wheel. If they feel worn or do not turn freely, replace them. Upon re-assembly, ensure that the three axle spacers are properly positioned. www.tanaka-usa.com custsvc@tanaka-ism.com Revison 002...

(Fig. 11) to allow enough slack in the control cables for the steering stem to be lifted from the steering head. Take the opportunity to thoroughly clean all parts with cleaning solvent, and inspect bearings. If they feel worn or do not turn freely, replace them.

A worn sprocket will quickly damage a new chain and vice- versa. Chains and sprockets should be replaced as a set. Figure 19 www.tanaka-usa.com custsvc@tanaka-ism.com Revison 002...
Inspect the board for any damage and replace as necessary. When re-installing a deck, always ensure that all fasteners are used, and that an adequate amount of grip tape is re-applied to ensure sound footing when in operation. www.tanaka-usa.com custsvc@tanaka-ism.com Revison 002...
The breaker is reset on earlier models with the kick-stand. When the stand is down, it trips a switch on the circuit board, (see fig. 23). Moving the stand up/down/up will reset the breaker. On newer models, turning the on/off switch on/off/on will reset the breaker, (see fig.’s 24 and 25). www.tanaka-usa.com custsvc@tanaka-ism.com Revison 002...

25.5 volts, (as high as 29.5 volts is normal). If the voltage registers in this range, the charger is working correctly to supply current to the batteries. Less than 24 volts would indicate a defective charger. www.tanaka-usa.com custsvc@tanaka-ism.com Revison 002...
If the motor does not turn when tested this way, it is defective and must be replaced as an assembly. Removal of the motor is made simple by the two sub-frame pieces on either side of the frame. Removal of the bolts on chain side only will allow the removal of the motor. www.tanaka-usa.com custsvc@tanaka-ism.com Revison 002...
