Five holes are provided in the seat post to allow five seat

height adjustments.

To adjust seat height:

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.

3. Raise or lower the seat post, as desired, and replace

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

and disconnect the charger from the scooter. Although

this charger will automatically shut down when the

batteries are fully charged, for safety's sake, the

charger should not be left on for a period of time

longer than is needed to fully charge the batteries.

Batteries which are in good condition can normally be re-

charged in approximately 6 hours.

NOTE: The optional 5 AMP INTERACTER charger can

charge any sealed, gel and starved electrolyte battery. It will

charge the standard battery pack in approximately 3-5 hours.

TO CHARGE YOUR BATTERIES OFF THE SCOOTER:

(The extended range package has separate instructions.)

1. Position the battery box and battery charger near an

electrical wall outlet.

2. Plug the charger into the mating plug on the battery

box.

3. Plug the charger into the wall outlet. The red

Power On indicator will light.

4. The yellow Charging light on the charger will

light.

NOTE:

If the scooter batteries are low on charge, the yellow light will

glow steadily. As the batteries are being charged, the yellow

light will begin to flash, rapidly at first, then more slowly as the

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.

If the charger is subject to a power line surge, the AC input

fuse may `BLOW' This fuse is located beneath the power

cord from the wall outlet to prevent shock hazard, to replace

fuse:

1) Remove Power Cord from wall outlet and charger socket.

2) Pull out on the fuse access panel.
