PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK
Get to know the feel of your Victory XL-3 and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety
check before each use to make sure your Victory XL-3 operates smoothly and safely. For details on how to
perform these necessary inspections, see IX. “Care and Maintenance.”
Perform the following inspections prior to using your Victory XL-3:
n Check for proper tyre inflation. Maintain 30-35 psi in each tyre (if equipped with pneumatic tyres).
n Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
n Check all controller connections to the electronic controller module. Make sure they are secured properly.
n Check the brakes.
n Check battery charge.
WARNING! It is critically important that 30-35 psi tyre pressure be maintained in pneumatic tyres
at all times. Failure to maintain 30-35 psi tyre pressure in pneumatic tyres at all times may result
in catastrophic tyre and/or wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to your
Victory XL-3.
WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your Victory XL-3. Carrying passengers on your Victory
XL-3 may result in personal injury and/or property damage.
If you discover a problem, contact your authorised Pride provider for assistance.
WEIGHT LIMITATIONS
Your scooter is rated for a maximum 135-kg weight limit.
INCLINE INFORMATION
More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe
access. Some ramps may have turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to have good
cornering skills on your Victory XL-3.
n Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
n Take wide swings with your Victory XL-3’s front wheel around any tight corners. If you do that, the
Victory XL-3’s rear wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get
hung up on any railing corners.
n When driving down a ramp, keep the Victory XL-3’s speed adjustment set to the slowest speed setting
to ensure a safely controlled descent. See IV. “Your Victory XL-3. ”
n Avoid sudden stops and starts.
WARNING! Exceeding the weight limit voids your warranty and may result in personal injury and
damage to your Victory XL-3. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property
damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
