OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION

Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of Manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
driving on poor surfaces, such as loose dirt,
wet grass, gravel, etc.
S t a y i n d e s i g n a t e d a r e a s a n d a v o i d
extremely rough terrain.
Maintain a safe speed when driving down
hill. Use service brake to control speed
when traveling down an incline. A sudden
stop or change of direction may result in
loss of control.
To prevent loss of control, do not move the
direction selector of a PDS vehicle 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.
Slow down before and during turns. All turns
should be made at reduced speed.
Never drive vehicle up, down, or across an
incline that exceeds 14° (25% grade).
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death resulting from improper vehicle opera-
tion, the following warnings must be observed:
Refer to GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for
seating capacity.
Depressing accelerator pedal will release
foot operated park brake and may cause
inadvertent vehicle movement. Turn the key
to the ‘OFF’ position whenever the vehicle is
parked.
To prevent inadvertent movement when the
vehicle is to be left unattended, engage the
park brake, move direction selector to neu-
tral 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 vehi-
cle is in motion
PRECISION DRIVE SYSTEM
™
Regenerative Braking
To prevent the possibility of loss of control that
could cause severe injury or death, use service
brake to control speed. The PDS system is not
a substitute for the service brake.
PDS models are equipped with a regenerative motor
control system.
Example: If all of the following events occur...
a) the vehicle is being driven down a slope
b) the vehicle attempts to exceed the specified top
speed with the accelerator pedal depressed
or
released
the regenerative braking will limit the speed of the vehicle
to the specified top speed (the warning beeper will
not
sound). When the regenerative braking system is acti-
vated by this sequence of events, the motor generates
power which is returned to the batteries.
If the operator attempts to override the regenerative
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).
Pedal-Up Braking
Pedal-up braking is regenerative braking that occurs
when the accelerator pedal is released while the vehicle
is moving between 8 mph (13 kph) and the vehicle’s top
speed.
Example: If all of the following events occur...
a) the vehicle is being driven down a slope
b) the accelerator pedal is released for more than
one second
the pedal-up braking will slow the vehicle (the warning
beeper will
not
sound) until either the vehicle speed is
reduced to 8 mph (13 kph), at which it freely coasts
between 8 and 3 mph (5 kph), or the accelerator pedal is
applied. When pedal-up braking system is activated by
this sequence of events, the motor generates power
which is returned to the batteries.
