Invacare® Comet Series
WARNING!
Risk of tipping over
–
Only ever drive downhill at a maximum of 2/3 of the
top speed.
– If your scooter is fitted with an adjustable backrest,
always return the backrest of your seat to an upright
position before ascending slopes. We recommend
that you lean the backrest slightly to the rear before
descending slopes.
–
When descending slopes, bring your seat to a
maximum forward position.
– Never attempt to ascend or descend a slope on
slippery surfaces or where there is a danger of
skidding (such as wet pavement, ice etc).
–
Avoid trying to get out of the scooter on an incline
or a gradient.
–
Always drive in a straight direction along the road or
path you are travelling on, rather than attempting to
zigzag.
– Never attempt to turn around on an incline or a slope.
CAUTION!
Braking distance is much longer on a downhill
slope than on even terrain
–
Never drive down a slope that exceeds the rated
slope (refer to 12 Technical data, page 55).
6.5 Parking and stationary
If you park your vehicle, or leave it idle or unattended for a longer
period:
1. Switch off the power supply (keyswitch) and remove key.
6.6 Use on public roads
The wheels may bear the note "Not For Highway Use". However,
the mobility device may be used on all traffic routes for which it is
approved in accordance with the relevant national legislation.
6.7 Pushing the scooter by hand
CAUTION!
Risk of injury if someone sits on a scooter with
disengaged motors
A scooter with disengaged motors can roll out of
control.
– Disengage the motors only if no one is sitting on the
scooter.
The motors of the scooter are fitted with automatic brakes,
preventing the scooter from rolling away out of control when
the power supply is switched off. When pushing the scooter, the
magnetic brakes must be disengaged.
6.7.1 Disengaging motors
CAUTION!
Risk of vehicle running away
When the motors are disengaged (for push operation
whilst freewheeling), the electromagnetic motor brakes
are deactivated.
– When the vehicle is parked, the levers for engaging
and disengaging the motors must be locked firmly into
the “DRIVE” position (electromagnetic motor brakes
activated).
The lever for engaging and disengaging the motor is located on the
right-hand side at the rear.
