Product Stability
Scooters and powered wheelchairs are designed to allow the user flexibility of
movement in restricted areas. Driving at maximum speed and attempting sharp
turns can create a situation where the product becomes unstable. Therefore it is
essential that the user pay attention to the guidance set out in this manual.
For maximum stability the speed setting should be set up to 50% of
the maximum available (halfway between the tortoise and the hare or
just entering the red sector on the speed indicator depending on the
model.)
The main factors affecting stability are:

Maximum speed setting

Seat height

User movement

User’s manoeuvres

Gradients or slopes
Please keep your speed to a level where you can safely stop without having to
make any erratic turns.
Do not load bags etc. on the back of the seat as this will affect the centre of
gravity and could increase instability.
Do not lean outside of the ‘footprint’ of the product, especially whilst moving.
Avoid making turns on gradients or slopes.
Driving in Pedestrian Areas
As mentioned previously, when using the scooter in pedestrian areas always
lower your maximum speed to that of the pedestrians around you. Remember
the stopping distance of your scooter and always allow enough space to stop
safely to avoid collisions with pedestrians or other objects.
