Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of Manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
ACCELERATOR PEDAL
Unintentional movement of the accelerator ped-
al will release the park brake and may cause
the vehicle to move which could result in
severe injury or death.
With the key switch ‘ON’, depressing the accelerator
pedal starts the motor. When the pedal is released, the
motor will stop (Ref Fig. 7 on page 4). To stop the vehicle
more quickly, depress the service brake.
Fig. 7 Accelerator and Brake Controls
If key switch is ‘ON’ and park brake is set, depressing the
accelerator inadvertently will release the park brake and
will cause the vehicle to move which could cause severe
injury or death.
Depressing the accelerator pedal will release the park
brake if it is engaged. This is a feature to assure the vehi-
cle is not driven with the park brake engaged. Depress-
ing the accelerator pedal is
not
the preferred method of
releasing the park brake.
Depressing the
lower section of the brake pedal
is the pre-
ferred method of releasing the park brake to assure the longest
service life of brake components.
COMBINATION SERVICE BRAKE AND PARK
BRAKE PEDAL
The brake pedal incorporates a park brake feature (Ref
Fig. 7 on page 4). To engage, push down on the upper
section of the pedal until it locks in place. The park brake
will release when the service brake pedal is depressed.
Use the lower section of the brake pedal to operate the
service brake system.
OPTIONAL FRONT DISC BRAKES
The front disc brakes activate as the brake pedal
reaches the ‘park’ or latch position. Depressing the brake
pedal further will increase the effectiveness of the front
brakes.
RUN - TOW/MAINTENANCE/STORAGE
SWITCH
(PDS VEHICLES ONLY)
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death resulting from loss of vehicle control,
consider the grade of the terrain the vehicle is
on and set vehicle’s park brake accordingly
before switching the Run - Tow/Maintenance/
Storage switch to the ‘Tow/Maintenance/Stor-
age’ position. When in the ‘Tow/Maintenance/
Storage’ position, the Anti-Roll Back and Walk-
Away safety features of the PDS system no
longer function.
Before attempting to tow vehicle, move the Run-Tow/
Maintenance/Storage switch to the ‘Tow/Maintenance/
Storage’ position. Failure to do so will damage the con-
troller or motor.
Before disconnecting or connecting a battery, or any oth-
er wiring, move the Run-Tow/Maintenance/Storage
switch to the ‘Tow/Maintenance/Storage’ position.
After connecting a battery, or any other wiring, wait a
minimum of 30 seconds before moving the Run-Tow/
Maintenance/Storage switch to the ‘Run’ position.
The PDS vehicle is equipped with a two position switch
located under the passenger side of the seat on the con-
troller environmental cover (Ref Fig. 8 on page 5).
