The painted bodywork on your Luggie Scooter can be
lightly washed with clean soapy water. Do not use abrasive
cleaners or strong detergents. This could fade the color, an
auto type shampoo works well.
Do not hose down your Luggie with a powerful
cleaner. Water could be forced into the electronics and
cause permanent damage.
On the painted finish, be cautious not to wash with a dirty
cloth as this could scratch the paint finish. Auto polish can
be used to keep the paintwork and bright chrome parts in
pristine condition.
The metal framework of your Luggie should be cleaned
once a year and any paintwork damaged should be treated
to prevent further attack from the elements.
Do not store your Luggie in damp conditions. This may affect
the electronics if left for very long periods of time. Moisture,
if left unattended can cause deterioration on metal work,
protect with proprietory cleaners.
Servicing of the drive electronics and charger should only be
carried out by your local Luggie service dealer. These
units are sealed and should not be opened. BROKEN
SEALS WILL INVALIDATE YOUR GUARANTEE.
This unit is factory filled and will not normally need
additional lubrication.
Note: Your Luggie transmission is filled with a special
lubricant. Do not attempt to force grease into the
transmission as this will contaminate the original lubrication
and will invalidate your guarantee.
Take care when lifting the transmission, keep well
away from clothing. It is normal to find a light film of
lubrication around this part.
If the motor brake is functioning correctly and
the drive is engaged you will not be able to push your machine
when it is switched off. Or switched on with the speed control
lever in the 'zero speed', central position.
