Unpack the C.A.T. and inspect all the parts to insure all are included. Please contact your C.A.T. dealer immediately if any parts are missing. Place your C.A.T. on a flat, clean surface. Remove the bolts and nuts from the connecting tube clamp.
Pull them completely through into the battery compartment and seat the connecting tube into the opening. Reinsert the bolts and nuts as shown. Tighten the bolts and nuts using the 2 allen wrenches in the tool kit. Also tighten the small bolts on the outside of the frame. Connect the white plastic connectors together and plug in the color-coded wires to the corresponding color wire from the battery. Once the connections are completed push them into the opening next to the battery.
Installing the Battery Cover Insert the metal tabs on the 4 plastic tabs on the battery cover. Align the battery box and tabs making sure all wires are inside the cover. Tighten the battery cover.
Installing the Handlebar Slip the handlebar over the top of the front fork. Lower the collapsible handlebar by pulling down on the handle. This will expose the nut which must be tightened. Once it is tight, raise the handlebar back into place and pull up on the handle. Note: The collapsible handlebar connector faces slightly to the left of center in order to enable the handlebar to collapse with the basket in place.
Charging the Batteries Before riding your C.A.T. for the first time, the unit should be fully charged. Ride your C.A.T. until the battery is fully discharged before recharging it. Doing this 35 times will insure maximum battery efficiency and scooter performance. The batteries should be recharged frequently, at least once every 30 days for longest battery life. Leaving the battery uncharged for more than 3 months will significantly decrease battery lifespan.
Riding your C.A.T. If you are using your C.A.T. outdoors please be aware of all state and local laws governing the use of such vehicles. State and local ordinances may vary and it is your responsibility to make sure you comply with all applicable laws. Always opt for safety. First, put the key in the ignition switch located on the right side of the handlebar. Turn the key to the first “On” position. The first stop is high speed, meaning the C.A.T. can be driven from 0 to 16 mph.
As you hold onto the handlebars with both hands, you will control the throttle with your right thumb. Depress the throttle to increase your speed. Be careful to slightly push the throttle until you are accustomed to its sensitivity. As you push the throttle, your speed will increase. To stop your C.A.T., disengage the throttle and apply pressure to the handbrake.
Maintenance Your C.A.T. requires minimum maintenance to give you years of service. Always follow these simple procedures before your ride. Make sure battery is fully charged. Never leave battery uncharged for more than 30 days, as this will negatively impact performance. Inspect all connections each time you ride to insure nothing is loose and wires are not frayed or damaged. Make sure tires are inflated to their proper pressure as shown on the tire and tighten wheels bolts periodically.
Trouble Shooting Problem Most Likely Cause The key is in the ON position, but the C.A.T. does not move. The battery may not be full charged. Check the battery level indicator on the handlebar. If the green light is not illuminated, charge the battery before using the C.A.T.. The C.A.T. rides roughly and is difficult to steer. Check tire inflation before operating the C.A.T.. Check weekly to insure safe operation. The handlebar wobbles and doesn’t feel tight.
