Controls
1. ON/OFF LIGHT & BATTERY CONDITION
INDICATOR - At the top of the handlebar
control you will see a light (Fig 5A). This is a
multi-function light and will come on when
the ON/OFF key (Fig 5D) is switched to on,
indicating the machine is ready for use. In
addition, it has another function which is to
indicate the state of charge of the battery.
When you switch on, you will notice the light
go through a sequence of colours, starting
at red through amber to green, indicating
the battery is fully charged. Providing the
battery is fully charged the green will stay on
until the battery charge condition drops to
a level that will change the light to amber,
indicating that the battery should soon be
recharged. At the final stage of the light
sequence the amber will change to red
indicating the battery has a very low charge
and should be recharged at the very earliest
opportunity. The third function of the light is
to provide a fault code indication. This will
operate if the Powerpack has a fault or is
overloaded. The machine will cutout and the
light will flash a certain sequence. To reset,
switch off, wait a few seconds and switch on
again. If the fault has not cleared, contact
your dealer or TGA. On the Powerpack Plus,
the battery indicator light will stay on when
low voltage is detected. To clear, turn off
wait a few seconds and restart.
2. PRESET SPEED CONTROL - Immediately
under the light is a small round control
which is the Preset Speed Control (Fig
5B). This will control the maximum
speed of the Powerpack by turning in a
clockwise direction to increase speed and
anticlockwise to reduce speed, particularly
useful when going around shops or other
confined spaces where a high level of
control is needed.
3. SPEED CONTROL LEVER - Whilst the
Preset Speed Control will limit the top
speed of the Powerpack, the speed control
lever will progressively control the speed
up to the preset limit (Fig 5C). The more
you push the lever down with your thumb
the quicker you will go. An alternative use
for the lever is to preset your top speed
WARNING!
Do not switch your Powerpack on with
the control lever depressed.
with the preset control, then use the lever
as a button simply by pressing from top to
bottom in one movement. The electronics
will still provide a smooth take off.
4. ON/OFF KEY - Situated under the speed
lever this is simply an ON/OFF switch with
removable key (Fig 5D). The key will be in
a vertical position for off. Turn clockwise for
on. Never leave switched on when not in use
or with someone sitting in an unattended
chair. When leaving the chair always take the
key with you.
5. DIRECTION SWITCH - Fitted on the
left-hand side of the hand control on
Powerpacks with the reverse upgrade.
(Fig 5F). The direction switch controls the
direction that the powerpack will operate
(forward and reverse). With the ignition
key switched off, simply press the direction
switch forward to operate the Powerpack
forward, and in the reverse position to
operate the Powerpack backwards. Please
note: if using the hand control on the left-
hand handlebar the direction switch can
be removed and rotated so that it is facing
inwards.
