Controller Phase Wire Disconnect
Once the transaxle has been dropped from the swing arms, the next step is to disconnect the motor
wires. The three heavier gauge motor phase wires will be connected to the controller unit in a yellow
junction box. The thinner gauge motor hall sensors will be housed in a clip style connector. Disconnect
all the motor wires before proceeding.
Motor Oil - The EW-36 uses 5W-30 motor oil (synthetic or non-
synthetic). If completely empty, refill the motor with up to ½
quart of oil
The final step is to remove either side axle assembly. When
either axle is removed, the remaining axle that is still
connected to the motor will have room to be able to drop
away from the frame. Both axles are secured by five 6mm
hex (Allen wrench) bolts. Ensure the motor to axle seal is
salvaged is just the axle or motor is being replaced.
