WARNING!
Risk of rollover: Please don't zigzag or otherwise drive
erratically. In corners and bends, use both hands to turn the handlebars in
the direction you want to go. The front wheels will turn accordingly and
guide the scooter in the proper direction. It is very important that you
make sure there is enough space for you to pass through at corners and
curves. When there’s enough room to do so, prepare for an upcoming
narrow turn by starting to make a big curve in advance. That way the
scooter won’t have to make a sharp turn but can gradually move into the
curve less abruptly.
WARNING!
Do not turn into 90-degree curves too fast as the rear wheel
might contact a curb or other obstacle that could make the scooter
unbalanced.
5.8.1 Backwards
WARNING!
Control your speed; when backing, drive at as low a speed as
possible.
WARNING!
Collision hazard -
Keep a careful eye behind you as you reverse.
Driving backwards requires more attention since it is a left-handed
operation and requires a significantly reduced speed compared to that
when moving forward. We recommend that you adjust the speed knob to
slow the scooter down when reversing.
5.8.2 Going uphill.
WARNING!
Take control of your scooter and get used to driving it up hills
and slopes.
WARNING!
Never leave the scooter on a slope with the manual
freewheel lever on.
WARNING!
Control your speed, moving as fast as possible on a slope.
WARNING!
Do not back up when going uphill.
A proper sitting position when going uphill is to lean forward a bit, being
careful not to tip the scooter.
Make sure all wheels are in constant contact with the ground (ramp,
driveway, etc.) when on a hill. The scooter is driven by a differential, so the
two drive wheels should always be in contact with the ground.
