Replacing the throttle
If you would like to talk with someone
about your Pukka Electric Minibike,
please contact our service center toll-free
at 1-877-855-2832.
1. Remove the hand grip from the
handlebar. You may need to use a screwdriver
or spray a lubricant into the grip
to loosen it enough to remove.
2. Slide the plastic spacer off the
handlebar.
3. Use a hex wrench to loosen the
set screw on the throttle and slide
the throttle off the handlebar.
4. Remove the seat to allow access
to the battery compartment.
5. Remove the two bolts at the bottom
of the battery tray.
6. To remove the battery cover, slide
the cover to the rear and lift.
7. Between the batteries and the
seat post tube is the PWM controller.
It is encased in an aluminum box that
is mounted to the plate that separates
it from the batteries. Locate the
connector with red, green, and black
wires. Disconnect this plug.
8. Cut the connector off of the throttle
wire (be careful not to cut the connector
off the wire coming from the PWM controller)
and feed the wire through the rubber
grommet at the bottom of the battery
tray.

9. Feed the wire through the rubber
grommet at the bottom of the motor
mount on the swing arm.
10. Feed the wire through the eyelets
on the frame.
11. Separate the wire from the bundle
at the front of the Pukka.
12. To install a new throttle, place
the throttle on the handlebar. Replace
the plastic spacer and hand grip.


13. Slide the throttle against the
hand grip and tight the set screw
to hold the throttle in place.

14. Before attaching the connector
to the end of the throttle wire, feed
the wire through the eyelets on the
frame and through the grommet on the
motor mounting plate of the swing
arm and through the grommet on the
battery tray.



15. Attach the new connector to the
connector on the PWM controller and
insert the wires into the new connector
so that they are opposite the same
color wire. Be sure to insert the
wires far enough so that they are
secure. Test each one to make sure
they do not come loose.

16. Tuck all wires underneath the
PWM controller or to the side so that
they do not get in the way of the
battery cover.
17. Slide the battery cover down
over the battery and controller. The
yellow warning sticker will be at
the rear of the Pukka.
18. The battery cover has two knobs
in the front that slide into ? of
the battery tray.

19. Insert the bolts through the
holes in the battery tray and tighten
them into the bottom of the battery
cover.


20. Lastly, replace the seat. For
information about adjusting the seat,

the seat".
