2.3 Safety Checks 
 
These checks should be conducted in an open space and a restraining device such as a seat belt 
should always be used. PGDT accepts no liability for losses of any kind arising from failure to 
comply with this condition. 
2.4  Pushing Your Machine 
 
Depending on the type of freewheel mechanism, then it may be possible for the machine to 
freewheel at potentially dangerous speeds. Therefore, do not push the machine up or down 
inclines on which you cannot stop or hold the machine. Never sit on the machine if the freewheel 
mechanism is disengaged. PGDT accepts no liability for losses of any kind arising from the 
machine being moved while the freewheel mechanism is disengaged. 
 
Do not freewheel the machine faster than the programmed Maximum Speed, e.g. by towing. PGDT 
accepts no liability for losses of any kind arising from failure to comply with this condition. 
2.5 Programming 
 
Programming should only be conducted by electronic service professionals with in-depth 
knowledge of PGDT controllers. Incorrect programming could result in an unsafe set-up of a 
machine for a user. PGDT accepts no liability for losses of any kind if the programming of the 
controller is altered from the factory preset values.
