STARTING TO DRIVE YOUR SCOOTER
First Time Use
Prior to using your GK4/GK7-3/GK9 Portable Scooter for the first time, you must charge the
batteries fully (refer to Battery Charging Procedures). Charging may take up to 12 hours.
Charging the batteries completely prior to first time use will benefit battery efficiency. Failure
to do so may cause permanent damage.
Getting Started
-
Select a level area with plenty of space.
-
Mount the scooter by pushing the arm upward out of the way and sliding onto the
seat or swivel the seat around to mount. Use the arm rest for support if necessary.
-
Adjust the tiller and seat as previously described.
Starting Scooter Movement
-
Ensure that you are seated in a comfortable position.
-
Turn the key to the on position. The switch will light up red when on.
-
Your speed setting should be on or near the turtle (slow).
-
Squeeze your right hand lever (yellow dot) and the scooter will move forward slowly.
The harder you squeeze, the faster the scooter goes, but will only reach the speed
level that has been selected.
-
Release the lever and the scooter will slowly come to a stop as the magnetic brake
automatically engages.
Steering
Steering the scooter is light and easy. When starting off ensure that you give a wide clearance
when turning so that the rear wheels clear any obstacle that you are passing. When steering
through limited spaces such as a doorway or when turning around, turn the tiller handles
where you want to go and apply power gently. The scooter will turn very tightly but will still
move with complete stability as long as the speed is not too high.
Reversing
Before reversing ensure that the area behind is free from any hazards or obstructions. Adjust
your speed setting to a low setting begore you move in reverse. Squeeze your left hand lever
(red dot), and steer wide of all corners and obstacles.
Dismounting
Before dismounting ensure that the key is turned to the off position (red light off). Dismount
the scooter by pushing the arm upward out of the way (if installed) and slide off the seat or
swivel the seat around to dismount. Use the arm rest for support if necessary.
Do not use
the seat back or tiller for support.
CAUTION: Please ensure that care is exercised when mounting or dismounting the scooter
and that the tiller and footrest is not used for support.
