Page 33
If the vehicle must be transported over long distances or on public highways, it should be transported on an
approved trailer that has the following approved load rating per vehicle being transported:
Turf 1
1600 lb. (727 kg)
Turf 2
1600 lb. (727 kg)
Turf 6
2000 lb. (909 kg)
NOTE:
A two-car trailer should be rated at 2 x 1600 lb. = 3200 lb. (2 x 727 kg = 1454 kg) for Turf 1 and 2,
or 2 x 2000 lb. = 4000 lb. (2 x 909 kg = 1818 kg) for Turf 6).
STORAGE – ELECTRIC VEHICLE
See General Warnings on page 13.
ý
WARNING
• Turn the key switch to the OFF position, remove the key, and leave the Forward/Reverse
handle or switch in the NEUTRAL position during storage. This is to prevent unintentionally
starting the vehicle or a fire hazard. IQ System and IQ Plus vehicles only: Place Tow/Run
switch in TOW position.
• Do not attempt to charge frozen batteries or batteries with bulged cases. Discard the battery.
Frozen batteries can explode.
ý
CAUT ION
• Batteries in a low state of charge will freeze at low temperatures.
• To avoid exposing electrical components to moisture and subsequent damage, do not use
any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning equipment to wash the vehicle.
PREPARING THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE FOR EXTENDED STORAGE
1. Unload the vehicle so that tires are supporting only the weight of the vehicle.
2. Fully charge batteries.
See Charging Batteries on page 46.
3. Batteries should be clean and free of corrosion. Wash tops and terminals of batteries with a solution of
baking soda and water (1 cup (237 mL) baking soda per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water). Rinse solution off bat-
teries. Do not allow this solution to enter the batteries. Be sure terminals are tight. Let the terminals dry
and then coat them with Battery Terminal Protector Spray (CCI P/N 1014305).
4. Store vehicle in a cool, dry place. This will minimize battery self-discharge.
5. Adjust tires to recommended tire pressure.
See Vehicle Specifications – Electric Vehicles on
6. Perform semiannual periodic lubrication.
See Periodic Lubrication Schedules on page 40.
7. Thoroughly clean front body, rear body, seats, cargo bed, battery compartment, and underside of vehicle.
8. Do not engage the park brake. Chock the wheels to prevent the vehicle from rolling.
9. Keep batteries fully charged during storage.
•
Leave battery chargers plugged in during storage. The onboard computer will automatically activate
the charger when necessary. If charger cannot remain plugged in, or AC power will not be available
during extended storage, disconnect the batteries for storage
