Guidance for safe operation and use

Hill climbing

Your scooter is designed to travel up or down most reasonable slopes up to 6°. However both hill climbing capability and distance travelled between battery charges will be adversely affected by such things as:

1.The mass of the user.

2.Terrain (e.g. grass or gravel).

3.Steepness of hills.

4.Level of charge and the age of the batteries.

5.Extremes of temperature.

6.Use and weight of accessories.

Transportation

Your scooter may be disassembled quickly and simply for transportation by car:

(i)Lift off the front basket (Photo 15).

(ii)Remove the seat (Photo 16).

(iii)Remove the battery (Photo 17).

(iv)Lower the tiller using the adjustment knob, to its lowest setting (Photo 18).

(v)Lift the scooter safely and securely into the luggage compartment of the vehicle, (Photo 19).

Important: Remember to re-engage the drive unit by pushing the freewheel lever down to stop the scooter from moving. Always secure your scooter before transportation.
