Owner’s Guide
TCT vehicles operate only in the ‘RUN’ position.
If all of the following events occur with the switch in ‘RUN’ position
a) the vehicle has been stopped for more than one second.
b) the accelerator pedal has been released for more than one second.
c) the vehicle begins to roll above 2 mph (3 kph).
the electronic braking will limit speed to approximately 2 mph (3 kph) and the warning beeper will sound. When the accelerator
pedal is depressed, the electronic braking and warning beeper will be overridden and normal vehicle operation resumes. The
system functions in all key switch positions.
The TCT system is not a substitute for the service brake which should be used to control
speed and reduce possibility of injury.
If all of the following events occur with the switch in ‘RUN’ position.
a) the vehicle is being driven down a slope.
b) the vehicle speed exceeds the designed speed with the accelerator pedal depressed or released.
the regenerative braking will limit the speed of the vehicle to the designed speed range.When the regenerative braking feature
is activated by this sequence of events, the motor generates power which is returned d to the batteries. TCT models are
equipped with a regenerative motor control system.
The motor’s speed is sensed and regulated directly by the controller. As a vehicle begins to accelerate while descending a hill,
the speed sensor will cause the motor to electrically resist the speed of the vehicle through regenerative braking.
If the operator attempts to override the electronic braking feature by moving the direction selector or key switch to another
position, the warning beeper will sound and the vehicle will brake rapidly until it reaches the speed of approximately 2 mph (3
kph).
The TCT system also incorporates an anti-stall protection feature that prevents commutator damage from stalling the vehicle
against an obstacle or ascending a hill. The electrical power to the motor will be deactivated allowing the vehicle to roll freely
before damage can be done.
In Performance Mode option features different degrees of regenerative breaking that takes place anytime that accelerator
pedal is released. The Steep Hill option will rapidly slow the vehicle to a stop unless the accelerator pedal is depressed. The
Mild Hill option will slow the vehicle to a stop at a slower rate unless the accelerator pedal is depressed.
The TCT has a low power consumption unit but it will drain the vehicle batteries over a period of time. If the vehicle is to be
stored for a prolonged period of time, the TCT should be disconnected from the batteries by selecting the ‘TOW/MAINTE-
NANCE/STORAGE’ position on the Run-Tow/Maintenance/Storage switch located under the passenger seat.
The Electronic Speed Control system consists of three separate units; a pedal box, speed sensor, and controller.
Regenerative Braking
To prevent the possibility of loss of control that could cause severe injury or death, use ser-
vice brake to control speed. The TruCourse technology system is not a substitute for the ser-
vice brake.
TruCourse Technology models are equipped with a regenerative motor control system.
