SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death from improper servicing techniques:
DO NOT attempt any type of servicing
operations before reading all notes, cau-
tions and warnings in this manual.
Any servicing requiring adjustments to be
made to the powertrain while the motor is
running must be made with both drive
wheels raised and vehicle properly support-
ed on jack stands.
To reduce the possibility of motor damage,
never operate vehicle at full throttle for
more than 4 - 5 seconds while vehicle is in
a ‘no load’ condition.
Wear eye protection
when working on the
vehicle. Use extra care
when working around
batteries, or using sol-
vents or compressed air.
To reduce the possibility of causing an
electrical arc, which could result in a battery
explosion, turn off all electrical loads from
the battery before removing battery wires.
Wrap wrenches with vinyl
tape to reduce the possibil-
ity of a dropped wrench
‘shorting out’ a battery,
which could result in an
explosion.
The electrolyte in a battery is an acid solu-
tion which can cause severe burns to the
skin and eyes. Treat all electrolyte spills to
the body and eyes with extended flushing
with clear water. Contact a physician imme-
diately.
Any electrolyte spills should be neutralized
with a solution of 2 teaspoons (10 ml) sodi-
um bicarbonate (baking soda) dissolved in
1 quart (1 liters) of water and flushed with
water.
Aerosol containers of battery terminal pro-
tectant must be used with extreme care.
Insulate metal container to reduce the pos-
sibility of can contacting battery terminals
which could result in an explosion.
It is in the best interest of both vehicle owner and ser-
vice technician to carefully follow the procedures recom-
mended in this manual. Preventative maintenance, ap-
plied at recommended intervals, is the best guarantee
for keeping the vehicle both dependable and economi-
cal.
This vehicle will give years of satisfactory service, pro-
viding it receives regular maintenance. Refer to the Pe-
riodic Service Schedule for appropriate service intervals
(Ref. Fig. 14).
