Nice video. One item I noticed on my wife's Go-Go. It was not going that fast as before. In checking it, I find the lever is a bit loose. In looking at it it takes a 1/3 movement to get the cart to move. The forward and reverse arm will move a lot. So removing the 4 screws that hold my top cover on (there are different tops), I push the wire going in at the bottom of the handle tube to get the plastic connection at top up enough to pop off the 6 connector plug (there is a clip you have to pop up to release the plug). I then lift up the lever and see there is a tiny Allen wrench nut in there. After 20 min I find my Allen wrench bag and find this second to smallest Allen wrench. It put on the arm, tighten it snug (not too tight) and put it all back together (10 min if I had the Allen wrench). We do a Walmart trip and she is racing ahead of me. So if your forward/reverse are is loose, and can move a distance forward and back, that Allen nut is most likely loose. Since, when loose, it can only go back before hitting the handle, the speed control is not moving to full speed. My model also has a "fancy" cover by the speed dial, and hides the screws. They snap off by a small slot towards the seat. You only need to catch the cover snap to get it off. Don't try to take off the cover held on by screws.

Okay, so I found out that there is a triangular knob on the front that needs to point UP in order for the wheels to move easily. The knob should be turned to the side when you're transporting the base to make it more stable. Duh...Thanks for including this in one of your videos. :) I now have a question about charging the battery. When the battery needs charged, the light on the charging block is red. When leaving it plugged into the wall socket and the other end into the battery and leaving it for a while, the light briefly blinks green and then back to red before going off. Then it starts the cycle again. Does this mean the battery is ready to go or is there a charging problem? The instruction manual just says the light will turn green, and nothing about blinking to red and then off. What can I do to improve the turn radius? Right now the turning radius is so wide I won't be able to maneuver well. Help!

@LivingWellStores

Scooters utilize an electronic or electromechanical dynamic, regenerative braking system. This type of braking system works in tandem with the motor, first to slow and then stop the vehicle when the pressure is released on the thumb levers or the controls are otherwise disengaged. When the scooter is not being powered forward or in reverse, the brakes are engaged, thus preventing the scooter from moving. During the application of the brakes, excess power from the motor is channeled to the batteries, providing recharging. Because the brakes are engaged when the scooter is being actively powered, most scooters with this braking system are equipped with a clutch on the motor or another release lever to manually disengage the brakes to allow the scooter to be pushed in case of emergency. Some scooters also use disc brakes or disc brakes in combination with the braking system discussed above. Some scooters-usually front-wheel drive models-are not equipped with electronic or electromechanical brakes. In the absence of a brake system, a manual parking brake applied by lever to a rear wheel is provided. Manual parking brakes may also be offered either as optional or standard features on other scooters to provide extra braking on hills and inclines.
