9 Pushing your Scooter
Depending on the scooter model you have and the status of the controller, there are
different methods of easily pushing your scooter.
9.1 Using Freewheel Switch
If the scooter is fitted with a freewheel switch then you can easily push the scooter by
operating this switch with the scooter switched on. Whilst the switch is operated, the
scooter is prevented from driving and the freewheel speed is limited to 75% of the
maximum driving speed. See section 3.7 for more details.
9.2 Disengaging the Parking Brake
If the scooter does not have a freewheel switch or the controller has detected a fault,
then to push the scooter, you must mechanically disengage the parking brake. Your
scooter will be fitted with a special lever to do this.
Depending on the gear ratio between the motor and the drive wheels, it may be
difficult to push the scooter. If it is, switch off the scooter and less force will then be
required.
If you have disengaged the brake and the controller has
detected a fault or the scooter is switched off, then it may
be possible for the scooter to freewheel at potentially
dangerous speeds. Therefore, do not push the scooter up or
down inclines on which you cannot stop or hold the scooter.
Never sit on the scooter when the parking brake is disengaged.
PGDT accept no liability for losses of any kind arising from
the scooter being moved with the parking brake disengaged.
