Freewheel Device
8
When the vehicle is switched off the brakes are
automatically engaged. This is called “Failsafe
Braking”. Also, if the batteries are flat, the brakes
are automatically applied. There may be occasions
where you may wish to move the vehicle without
power. To do this there is a Freewheel Device fitted.
The Freewheel device (Fig.8) allows the vehicle to be
pushed without power. To activate, first locate the
lever. When standing behind the scooter, it is located
on the right hand side of the rear of the vehicle -
See Illustration.
• Make sure the On/Off (ignition) key is in the off
position.
• Move the lever
UP
The vehicle can now be
pushed in Freewheel.
• Move the lever
DOWN
to engage drive. The
vehicle is now braked. This is the normal operating
position.
• IF YOU ARE NOT COMPLETELY SURE OF
THIS FEATURE CONTACT YOUR DEALER
BEFORE OPERATING THE SCOOTER.
NOTE:
To avoid excessive strain on the tiller /
handlebar assembly, never push or pull the scooter
in freewheel mode if a user is on-board. Pull the
lever
UPWARDS
to engage freewheel mode (no
brakes - caution). Push the lever
DOWNWARDS
to
engage Drive mode.
Warning:
If the freewheel device is in “freewheel”
mode, the braking is disabled. Never select the
freewheel mode if the Scooter is on a slope or could
be pushed onto a slope.
Brakes
There are 2 braking systems. The first works with
the finger controls. When the finger control is
released the scooter will automatically brake and
bring the scooter to a stop. When the scooter stops
the automatic brake will engage. This will stop the
vehicle rolling forward or backward. When you start
the brake will automatically disengage. If the battery
should run out, the brakes automatically engage.
Note that even when freewheel is selected, a
secondary braking system is applied automatically
to limit the maximum speed. You may notice this
system causing drag when moving the scooter in
freewheel mode
Warning!
If the freewheel device is in
“freewheel” the automatic braking is disabled.
Never select the freewheel device if the scooter
is on a slope or could be pushed onto a slope.
