Battery Storage
All the Amigo rear drive models use a battery system that allows the batteries to be removed after they have been
disconnected from the platform battery connections. Each battery has a wire assembly with a two-position connector that
slides into the connector mounted to the platform. The connection system is designed so that either battery may be placed on
either side of the unit. Always turn your Amigo OFF before removing and installing batteries.
TO AVOID DAMAGE TO BATTERIES DURING STORAGE, DO NOT PLACE THEM END-TO-END
WITH THE POSITIVE (+) AND NEGATIVE (-) TERMINALS NEXT TO EACH OTHER (FIGURE 9).
