WARNING!

 Never descend or climb a gradient which is greater than the 

recommended maximum see 3.0 Specifications

WARNING!

 Never drive across (traverse) an incline, ramp etc, in any 

direction. 

WARNING!

 The anti-tip wheels are only effective on firm ground. They will 

sink into soft ground such as grass, snow or mud if the scooter rests on 

them. They will lose their effect and the scooter can tip over. 

WARNING!

 While you are driving down a slope, if your scooter starts to 

move faster than you feel safe, release the throttle control lever slowly. It 

will allow your scooter to decelerate and slow down.  

11.6 Drop Curbs

•  Always be cautious when descending a drop curb. 

•  Approach the curb so that both back wheels of your scooter go over the curb at the 

same time. 

•  Never go down curbs by traversing them. Doing this will cause the scooter to tip 

over resulting in serious injury or death. 

•  Drive down curbs slowly to avoid jarring bumps. 

•  Always drive straight up or straight down an incline, ramp, slope etc. 

•  Never drive across (traverse) an incline, ramp etc, in any direction – Driving across an 

incline, ramp etc could result in turning the scooter over resulting in serious injury 

or death. 

•  Try to keep your scooter moving when climbing or descending an incline. If you 

have to stop, restart and accelerate slowly and carefully. 

11.7 Grass and Gravel

•  Your scooter performs well on short firm grass and hills but you must follow the 

operational parameters presented in this manual. If you are unsure about any 

situation, avoid it. 

•  Avoid driving in long grass, this will result in grass wrapping around you scooters 

axle and potential damage to the scooter. 

•  Avoid driving on loose gravel, this will result in loss of control of the scooter. 

11.8 Getting Off Your Scooter

1.  Bring your scooter to a complete stop.

2.  Remove the key from the key switch.

3.  Carefully and safely get out of the seat and stand to the side of your scooter.

WARNING!

 Never attempt to get onto or off of your scooter without first 

removing the key from the key switch. This will prevent the scooter from 

moving if accidental throttle control lever contact is made.
