I-DRIVE TECHNICAL MANUAL – WARNING SUMMARY PG DRIVES TECHNOLOGY 
2.26  Forward Deceleration 
 
It is the responsibility of the machine manufacturer to ensure that the emergency stopping 
distance is within the distance specified for the country in which the machine will be used. 
2.27 Reverse Deceleration 
 
It is the responsibility of the machine manufacturer to ensure that the emergency stopping 
distance is within the distance specified for the country in which the machine will be used. 
 
Setting this value too low could cause the machine to tip when stopping, whilst reversing down a 
slope. 
2.28  Max. Forward Speed 
 
Ensure the stability of the machine is maintained, especially when cornering at the programmed 
Max. Forward Speed. 
2.29  Speed Limit Pot. Enabled 
 
If a parallel type speed limiting potentiometer is fitted, this parameter must be set to ON or the 
machine will only drive at the maximum programmed speed settings. 
2.30  Throttle Operated At Power-Up 
 
Setting this parameter to Drive will contravene international ‘mobility’ vehicle safety legislation. If, 
under exceptional circumstances, the condition set by Drive is required, it becomes the sole 
responsibility of the machine manufacturer. PGDT accepts no liability for losses of any kind 
resulting from this parameter being set to Drive. 
2.31   Soft-Stop 
 
If this function is On, you must ensure that the emergency stopping distance is within the 
distance specified for the country in which the machine will be used. 
2.32   Brake Fault Detect 
 
This parameter should only ever be set to Off if there are no electrical brakes fitted to the 
machine. 
2.33  Freewheel Speed Limit 
It is the responsibility of the machine manufacturer to ensure that adequate precautions are 
taken to warn the user against the hazards of freewheeling the machine at excessive speeds. It is 
also the responsibility of the machine manufacturer to utilize a suitable freewheel mechanism to 
reduce these risks. PGDT accepts no liability for losses of any kind resulting from excessive 
freewheel speeds of a machine.
