GRASS AND GRAVEL
The scooter functions well on grass and gravel, and also on hills, but it is necessary to comply
with the operating parameters indicated in this manual, in the technical specifications chapter. If
any situation causes doubt, avoid it.
• Feel free to use the scooter on lawns and in parks;
• Avoid long or high grass, as it could wrap around the scooter axles;
• Avoid loose gravel.
13.5 Driving up and down slopes
DRIVING UP A SLOPE
•
To guarantee maximum stability, lean forwards on the scooter seat when you go up ramps or
hills, onto pavements or any low rise;
•
Drive carefully when attempting to drive up any slope, including ramps for the disabled;
•
Always remain perpendicular to the slope when getting onto/off a sloping surface;
• Never cut sideways across a sloping surface in any direction;
•
Do not attempt to drive down a surface covered in snow, ice, freshly cut grass, leaves or
other potentially hazardous materials;
• Do not reverse down a slope;
•
Never drive the scooter up or down a slope that is higher than the recommended one. See
the chapter “Technical specifications”. Failure to do so could cause serious injury or death;
•
Try to keep your scooter moving when driving up or down a slope. If you have to stop, start
up again and accelerate slowly and carefully.
WARNING!
If the scooter starts moving more quickly than you consider safe on a downward slope,
release the accelerator control lever and bring the scooter to a stop. As soon as you
feel you have regained control of the scooter, push the accelerator control lever and
continue driving down the rest of the slope with care.
GOING DOWN A SLOPE
• Set the minimum speed;
•
If it is possible to do so safely, drive forwards down any ramp, low rise or sloping surface.
The manufacturer advises against reversing on slopes, ramps, pavements and low rises. Reversing
on a sloping surface can be extremely dangerous.
However, if you do need to reverse, follow one of two procedures.
NOTE:
When one of the following procedures is used to reverse down a sloping surface, the
manufacturer strongly advises using the assistance of another person.
Procedure 1: In operation
• Turn the ignition to the “Off” position;
• Get off the scooter;
• Turn the ignition to the “On” position;
•
Remain standing beside the scooter and carefully accelerate the controls at the minimum
speed;
• Slowly and carefully accompany the scooter along the sloping surface;
• Carefully get back on the scooter and return to normal functioning.
