BRAKING SYSTEMS
The Moto-Cart Jr-LT has two types of braking systems. It has dynamic regenerave braking while
moving and electromechanical braking for parking.

Dynamic Regenerave Braking
Dynamic regenerave braking automacally brings the Moto-Cart Jr-LT to a smooth stop when
you release the control lever. However, it does not lock the wheels in place.
Electromechanical Braking
Aer the dynamic braking as brought the Moto-Cart Jr-LT to a stop, or near stop, the
electro-mechanical brake will lock the wheels in place. The electromechanical brake is a parking
brake and can be applied quickly by pressing down the emergency stop switch located on the
top center right of the control panel. The drive wheels must be contacng the oor surface for
the brake to hold.
PANIC STOPPING

The Moon Alarm switch is located on the top side of the Moto-Cart Jr-LT’s control handle and
is marked with a horn symbol. Push on the buon to sound the moon alarm when the control
levers are operated.
BATTERY DISCHARGE INDICATOR (BDI)
The BDI indicates four ranges of baery condion.
1. Bar #1 indicates the baeries are fully (or nearly) charged.
2. Middle bars 2-9 indicate the baeries are being drawn down. Fully charge the baeries
at the earliest convenience.
3. Bar #10, on le side indicates the baeries need charging. Fully charge as soon as
possible.
4. Flashing Red bars #9 & #10-Charge the baeries at once! Move the Moto-Cart Jr-LT to
the closest 115 Volt 60 HZ AC outlet to charge.
The BDI may uctuate between the dierent ranges depending on the driving condions at the
me. Quick acceleraon or moving between oor surfaces (e.g., concrete to carpet) may cause
the BDI to drop momentarily to the next level.
DRIVING THE CART
The Moto-Cart Jr.LT is equipped with electronically proporonal speed control. Driving speed is
