right – never turn at high speeds as this will result in loss of control.
• Turn the tiller to the left to turn left – never turn at high speeds as this will result in
loss of control.
• Make sure to maintain sufficient clearance when turning your scooter so that the
rear wheels will be clear of any obstacles.

WARNING! Turning your scooter too sharply at high speed will cause loss
of control and balance and will result in the scooter tipping over resulting
in serious injury of death.
11.5 Driving on Inclines, Hills, Slopes and Ramps

recommended – see 3.0 Specifications. Failure to do so could result in serious injury
or death.

of the scooter forward for maximum stability and safety.
• Drive with extreme caution when attempting to drive up or down any incline,
access ramp etc, always drive at a slow speed.
