OPERATING PROCEDURES
Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.
To prevent inadvertent movement when the vehicle is to be left unattended, engage the park
brake, move direction selector to forward position, turn key to ‘OFF’ position and remove key.
Make sure that the direction selector is in correct position before attempting to start the vehicle.
Always bring the vehicle to a complete stop before shifting the direction selector.
Do not take vehicle out of ‘gear’ while in motion (coast).
Check the area behind the vehicle before operating in reverse.
All occupants must be seated. Keep entire body inside vehicle and hold on while vehicle is in
motion.
Additional Warnings and Cautions (applicable to PDS vehicles)
To prevent loss of control, do not move PDS vehicle direction selector while the vehicle is in
motion. Moving the selector will result in a sudden slowing of the vehicle and the beeping of a
warning device.
Permitting the vehicle to coast down an incline at speeds in excess of 2 mph (3kph) with the accelerator pedal released
after bringing the vehicle to a complete stop will cause an electronic braking force to be applied and a beeping from the
from the warning device. Depressing the accelerator pedal will return control to the operator and deactivate the warning
beeper.
Before attempting to move vehicle, move the Run-Tow/ Maintenance/Storage switch to the ‘Tow/Mainte-
nance/ Storage’ position. Failure to do so will damage the controller or motor. Before disconnecting or con-
necting a battery, or any other 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.
Performance
Vehicles operate only when the Run - Tow/Maintenance/Storage switch is in the ’RUN’ position.
The vehicle’s top speed is sensed and regulated directly by the controller and the feature to slow the vehicle when the
accelerator pedal is up is mild.
Speed Control
To prevent the possibility of loss of control that could cause severe injury or death, use service
brake to control speed. The Speed control system is not a substitute for the service brake.
Speed control system vehicles are equipped with a regenerative motor control system.
Example: If all of the following events occur:
•
the vehicle is being driven down a slope
•
the vehicle attempts to exceed the specified top speed with the accelerator pedal depressed
or
released
