Put something down on the floor or workbench wherever you are working like a cloth or piece or card so you do not damage your case and turn the battery box off your scooter upside down, you will see six screws holding it together, undo these and pull apart the case, inside you will see you old battery, just swap it out with the new one, and put the case back together making sure you connect up the wire to the correct terminals and do not catch a cable in the casing.
Once you have your new batteries fixed give them a good charge before you use them for the first time, it is going to take several charges and cycles before they reach full capacity which will be best to achieve over the first few weeks, if you are not familiar with how you should look after the batteries then this is for you. This kind of battery is capable of many thousands of charges, but this is only true if the battery is discharged a small amount, the more you drain the battery down the less overall charges it will be able to take in its life and it will need replacing earlier, so to sum up, charge after every use, do not try to run down the batteries you will save money in the long run.
If you are not using for a Long period then take the battery packs off your scooter and ensure you charge them every four or five weeks, leaving them for any period discharged will permanently reduce the battery life.
