Please use your Powerchair often and let it expand your horizons. The more
mobility your Powerchair brings, the happier we will be! But, with all things,
observing a few rules will ensure safe maneuvering. So please…
(1)
Do not
drive the Powerchair without reading this instruction manual.
(2)
Do not
exceed the safe climbing maximum angle (Table 2).
(3)
Do not
use the joystick in an erratic manner when going up or down an
incline.
(4)
Do not
carry passengers or exceed the maximum user weight (Table 2).
(5)
Do not
turn off the joystick controller by switching the On / Off Button
when moving at speed. This will bring the electromagnetic brakes on
immediately and could cause damage to the joystick controller.
(6)
Do not
drive over deep and soft terrain (soft dirt, loose gravel, deep grass).
(7)
Do not
attempt to mount a curb height above 50mm (2”) unless the Curb
