face, eyes, and clothing when working with a battery.

Proposition 65 Warning
Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Checking the Fuses

If the machine stops or has other electrical-system issues,
check the fuses. Grasp each fuse in turn and remove them 1
at a time, checking to see if any are blown. If you need to
replace a fuse, always use the same type and amperage
rated fuse as the 1 you are replacing; otherwise, you could
damage the electrical system (refer to the decal next to the
fuses for a diagram of each fuse and its amperage).
The traction-unit fuses are located under the seat
