No tools are required to disassemble or assemble your Sidekick. Always disassemble or assemble your Sidekick on a level, dry surface with sufficient room for you to work and move around your scooter. Keep in mind that the disassembled sections of the Sidekick take up more floor space than the assembled Sidekick.

DISASSEMBLY

You can disassemble the Sidekick into six pieces: the seat, the front frame, the rear frame, the rear shroud, and the batteries. You can also remove the utility tray if necessary. Place the scooter in an area where you have sufficient clearance to move the parts around. You need about four or five feet in all directions. You may need assistance to lift some of the scooter components. See IV. “Specifications” for individual component weights.

1.Place the manual freewheel lever in the drive (down) position.

2.Unplug the charger, coil the cord, and store it in the rear compartment.

3.Gently lift the seat up and off of the Sidekick. See figure 15.

4.Gently lift the rear shroud off of the Sidekick. See figure 16.

5.Unplug the large white front-to-rear connector that connects the front control console assembly harness to the electronic controller assembly. See figure 17.

6.Disconnect the motor harness. See figure 18.

7.Unplug both battery harnesses. Disconnect the battery tie-down straps (if so equipped), and lift both batteries off of the Sidekick. See figures 19 and 20.

CAUTION! Failure to unplug both battery harnesses and the control console harness prior to disassembly could result in permanent damage to the Sidekick.

8.Grab the handle grip on the tiller, pull upward on the release lever, and gently lower the tiller down to the center of the Sidekick chassis until it is fully lowered.

9.Push the locking levers forward and remove the ball detent pins. See figures 21 and 22.
