Keep in mind these rules
:
•
Release thumb levers and allow scooter to stop completely before changing from forward
to reverse, or reverse to forward.
•
When turning a corner, swing the front wheels wide, because the back wheels will turn
more tightly.
•
Use the scooter only where it would be safe to walk.
•
Use low speeds for reverse, downhills, ramps, curbs, or uneven surfaces.
Other Operating Information
:
Hill climbing:
You may need to use a higher speed. Turn to lower speed before going
downhill.
Down slopes:
To proceed down steep slopes slowly, set speed control in proximity of the
turtle. This enables driver control, as the closer the speed control is set
toward the turtle, the slower it will become. However, this scooter will not
self accelerate down hills due to the automatic braking taking effect should
you attempt to drive too fast.
Curb climbing:
Approach slowly at right angles to the curb. A slight angle is permissible
with a 4-wheel scooter, but a direct approach is needed on a 3-wheel
scooter. Do not attempt greater than a 3" curb.
If Self-Diagnostic Warning Lights start to blink, identify the problem from
the chart on page 17 and take action.
If the scooter breaks down and must be moved, get off the scooter, push the Free-Wheeling
Lever to N, move the scooter slowly to a safe location, and move the lever back to D.
