Guidance for safe operation and use

Hill climbing

Your scooter is designed to travel up or down most reasonable slopes up to 9°, however both hill climbing capability and distance travelled between battery charges will be adversely affected by such things as:

1.The weight 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.

(ii)Remove the seat, leaving the seat stem in position.

(iii)Remove the battery

(iv)Lower the tiller using the adjustment knob, to its lowest setting (Photo 7A and 7B).

(v)The rear section can be de- docked if necessary (Photo 8).

(vi)Stow the scooter safely and securely in the luggage compartment of the vehicle, (Photo 9).

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