Charging the Motor

With Charger:
Connect the motor charger to power. A green LED light will indicate power availability. Connect the charger to the motor head for charging, and the LED light will turn red to indicate charging. The LED light will turn green when the motor is fully charged, which may take 3 hours or more.

With Solar Panel Charger:
Ensure the solar panel is directed towards the sun in a water-free environment. Attach the solar panel to the motor to continuously charge the lithium battery inside. When the battery voltage is low (5.4V), the solar panel will charge the battery. Charging will stop when the battery voltage reaches 8.4V (maximum volts for the motor).

Setting Up Motor
