OPERATING YOUR SCOOTER

 

Freewheel Mechanism (FIG. 3) 

A freewheel device disengages the power drive to allow manual operation. 

The freewheel is selected by pulling up the lever which is located at the rear of the scooter. Once 

freewheel has been selected, the electronic drive control system is disabled to inhibit driving. 

This is a safety feature to prevent you driving the scooter with the parking brake disengaged. 

To turn off the freewheel and engage the motor, simply push the lever downwards. 

Note: Use extreme caution in the freewheel mode, especially on slopes/inclines. Letting 

go of your scooter while it is in freewheel, can cause the scooter to roll 

unexpectedly. 

This could cause damage or bodily harm. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Caution! 

It is advisable that during the first few sessions of operating your scooter that the area around 

you is clear of obstacles and pedestrians.  

Before operating your scooter, ensure the tiller angle has been set for optimum safety and 

comfort.
