Battery
The battery is a “maintenance free” type. It should not require electrolyte replacement. To
maintain a full charge on the battery, it is best to use the kick starter for short trips. Always
charge the battery before storing the scooter for long periods of time. Open the battery plate on
the floor board to expose the battery. If the battery posts appear to be dirty or have a white
powder on them, they will require cleaning. This is done by:
Check to see that the ignition is turned off.
Disconnect the negative wire first, then the positive wire from the battery
and lift the battery out of the battery compartment.
Use a wire brush to clean the battery posts.
Gently wash and dry the battery before replacing it into the scooter.
Reverse the steps above to reinstall the battery into the scooter.
