Maintenance should be carried out by a qualified engineer.
Unfortunately they cannot be there at all times. Items you should check
on a daily/weekly basis:
Your daily checklist
1. Visually check the machine for damage.
2. Visually check the tyres for damage. If your tyres are pneumatic
check tyre pressures (30psi). If your tyres are maintenance free
they will not need inflating. The front outer tyres are solid and do
not need attention.
3. Throttle has full and free movement.
4. Check the steering moves freely.
5. Tiller clamp is locked and does not move forward or backwards.
6. Seat is located correctly and locked.
7. Check the armrests are tight in the width adjustment.
8. Batteries should be fully charged.
9. Front basket is secure.
10. Accelerates and brakes correctly.
Important
Possible faults & reporting them to your service provider
As you get used to your vehicle you will get a feel for how it behaves. If
something feels unusual, for instance the vehicle does not accelerate or
brake smoothly; the brakes are not holding on a slope or the steering
feels different, contact your service provider immediately.
If the vehicle will not move with the ignition switched on your service
provider will ask “how many times is the green light flashing on the
dashboard”. Look at the “green status lamp” shown on page 6 and count
how many times it flashes. It will flash from one flash to nine flashes then
stop then start flashing the sequence again. This tells the engineer the
problem and will save time fixing the vehicle.
When reporting a fault make sure you have as much information as
possible for the service provider.
