1. Lift the Seat off the Seat post.
2. Remove the 3/8-16 x 2.5" hex head cap screw from
the seat post.

be set up to release the seat swivel by pushing the seat
swivel lever backward. (*SEE PAGE 9) Repeat until the
desired position is obtained. NOTE: If swivel locking in
other than 90 degree increments is desired, an optional 360

BATTERY INFORMATION
We recommend using only gelled electrolyte batteries
(commonly called gel cells) or starved electrolyte batteries
because it eliminates potential acid spills, reduces emission
of corrosive vapors and allows you to transport your scooter
on commercial airlines. In addition, our battery charger is
calibrated specifically for use with specific gelled electrolyte or
starved electrolyte batteries and is not suited for use with
conventional lead-acid batteries. The specific batteries we
recommend with the Cliplight charger are: Johnson Control
JC12170 and Sonnenschein A200-90555.
OPTIONAL BATTERY CHARGER PACKAGE:
The 5 AMP INTERACTER charger will allow you to use any
Gel or Starved electrolyte battery.
STANDARD BATTERY PACKAGE:
The standard battery pack is a 24 volt unit with (2)
12 volt, 17 amp-hour batteries, and has a range of 14-16
miles under normal conditions.
OPTIONAL BATTERY PACKAGES:
The extended range package contains (2) U1 batteries con-
nected in series to create a 24 volt system. The range is
extended to 30 miles under normal conditions.
CHARGING YOUR REGAL CUB'S BATTERIES
You REGAL CUB comes equipped with an automatic 3-amp
battery charger.
To charge your batteries on the scooter:
1. Position the scooter and battery charger near a
standard electrical wall outlet.
2. Pull the Key Jack to the "off" position.
3. Plug the charger into the battery charger receptacle on
the REGAL CUB is located on the left side of the Control

longer than is needed to fully charge the batteries.
Batteries which are in good condition can normally be re-
charged in approximately 6 hours.

batteries acquire their charge. The batteries are fully charged
when the green light blinks slowly and steadily. NOTE: When
using the Interacter Charger, the green LED will glow
continuously when the batteries are fully charged.
