PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK
A safety check is recommended before each use to make sure your scooter operates smoothly and safely.
See VIII “CARS AND MAINTENANCE”.
Perform the following procedures prior to using your scooter.
• Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
• Check all connections to the battery box. Make sure they are secured properly.
• Check the brakes. See VIII “CARE AND MAINTENANCE”.
• Check the battery charge. See VII. “batteries and charging”.
WEIGHT LIMITATIONS
Your scooter is rated for a 250 lb. weight capacity.
INCLINE INFORMATION
Many buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access. Some
ramps may have turning switchbacks (180 degree turns) that require you to have good cornering skills on
your scooter.
When climbing an incline, try to keep your scooter moving. If you must stop to start up again, you should slowly
accelerate cautiously. When driving down an incline, do so by setting the speed to the slowest position and
pushing the forward/backward lever to the forward direction. If your scooter starts to move down the incline
faster than you anticipated or desired, allow it to come to a complete stop by releasing the throttle control lever.
Then rotate down the speed adjustment knob and then push the throttle control lever down slightly to ensure a
safely controlled descent.
IX. SAFETY
Warning! Exceeding the weight limit voids your warranty and may result in personal
Injury and damage to your scooter.
!
Warning! When climbing an incline, do not zig-zag or drive at an angle up the face of
the incline. Drive your scooter straight straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the
Possibility of a tip or a fall. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.
!
Warning! Don’t drive up or down a potentially hazardous incline (i.e. Areas covered with
snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves.
!
Warning! Never drive down an incline backwards. This could cause personal injury.
