Solax Mobie Owner’s Manual V1.0 Page 11
CURBS & SINGLE STEPS
1. Your Mobie is not designed to drive up or down a curb or step more than 1/2 inch
high. Doing so may:
a. Result in a fall or tip-over.
b. Damage the frame, wheels, axles or other scooter parts, or loosen fasteners.
2. To prevent a fall or tip-over, use scooter access ramps or have someone help you.
3. If you must climb or descend a curb or step alone do so at your own risk and use
extreme care. Go as straight up or straight down as you can. Never turn or climb or
descend at an angle as a fall or tip-over is likely. Proceed slowly, at a steady speed.
4. Make sure that persons who assist you review the “Tips for Attendants” and heed all
warnings.
5. Avoid driving along curb edges and drop-offs. A minimum distance of eight inches
(“8”) from the curb is recommended.
CENTER OF BALANCE
The point where the Mobie will tip forward, back or to the side depends on its center of
balance and stability. The Center Of Balance Is Affected By:
1. The seat height and seat angle.
2. A change in your body position, posture or weight distribution.
3. Using the Mobie on a ramp or slope.
4. The use of a back pack or other options, and the amount of added weight.
To Reduce The Risk Of A Fall Or Tip-Over:
1. Consult your supplier for information on modifications authorized by Solax before you
modify or adjust your Mobie.
2. Use extreme care until you know the balance points of your Mobie and how to avoid a
fall or tip-over.
NOTE– The proper design will vary, depending on such things as: the length and height
of the ramp; the need for an intermediate platform; landing size; doors and the direction
of swing; and whether the ramp includes a turn or angle.
