Axle Pin

A small problem that we have come across over the years…..

The trolley is connected to the battery and switched on, The motor starts and turns the gearbox only for the trolley to remain stationery……

Not always but sometimes all that has been required to fix this problem has been axle pins. They can break through wear but also because of the strain and I have known for one to fall out. 

Battery Connector

If the battery connector needs to be replace this can be done very easily by following our instructions below.  The connector will be held in place by two nuts and bolts, one on each terminal with washers on. You will need a spanner and Phillips screwdriver to take off the connector, start on the positive side undo the bolt and take out then detach from the terminal then do the same on the negative side. Clean the top of the terminal by using a file or wire wool so that the terminal has a corrosion free connection once it’s all put back together. Attach the new connector by attaching with the washer, nut and bolt in reverse order from before and starting on the positive side. Tighten up then do the negative and if the new connector has a fuse double check it is ok then connect up with the battery and do a check to make sure it works.

Very important that the red wire and black wire are connected as they were- red to positive and black to negative (normally) so that this matches the motor connectors and in turn the right power through the control box otherwise the control box is prone to being blown, An expensive job and unnecessary if procedures have been followed.
