WHEEL POSITIONS
SEE PAGE 8 FOR DIAGRAM
If you press the
Speed/Mode Selector
twice, you will see one of the
two red
Wheel Location Lights
come on in the wheelchair picture. This
mode is used to raise and lower either the tail wheel or the large center
wheels, depending on which red light is lit. The light in the “seat
bottom” is for the center wheels. The light in the “seat back” is for the tail wheel.
Move the lever sideways to change the location. Now if you push forward or pull
back on the Joystick, the wheels will go down or up.
Try to cross obstacles at an
angle. You can cross a 5" curb safely if you cross at an angle. Cross small logs
and ditches the same way.
NOTE: If you run the center wheels all the way down and the tail wheel all the way
down, you now have a three-point setup that allows tight turns on hard surfaces as
well as on carpet and throw rugs.
BATTERY LIGHTS
The Joystick controller has ten
Battery Lights
. They will show how much charge
is left in the batteries. When the batteries are fully charged, all ten lights will light.
As the batteries loose their charge, the green lights will be the first to quit. If all of
the green and yellow lights go out, you have approximately 15
minutes before the machine quits. You can run the batteries down
to the point that the last red light will begin to flash. When that
happens, you do not have much time left. The battery charge life
will depend on the load and the terrain. You should never leave the
battery with a low charge. It will damage the batteries over time.
If the
IRV2000
has a problem, normally the
Battery Lights
begin to flash. Turn to
the section titled,
TROUBLE SHOOTING
and follow the instructions.
NOTE: IF THE IRV2000 IS LEFT OUTDOORS OR IF YOU WANT HIGH
SECURITY, UNPLUG THE JOYSTICK AND REMOVE IT FROM THE
ARMREST.
