Be careful with these things.

Thanks for that, you've really cheered me up :-(

I was already being very cautious. Before I did anything I measured the
battery voltage: 48v, and had a look at the main fuse: 500 A, - and
worked out that one slip of the spanner could involve me in a lot of
very hot metal.

It weighs about 4 tonnes, so I'm also very aware of what might happen if
the speed contoller chopper circuits turn out to have have failed S/C
and I accidentally close the motor contactor.
