Safety Instructions
Please use your Powerchair often and let it expand your horizons. The more
mobility your Powerchair brings, the happier you will be! But, with all things,
observing a few rules will ensure safe maneuvering. So please…
(1)
Do not
drive the Powerchair without reading this instruction manual.
(2)
Do not
use the joystick in an erratic manner when going up or down an incline.
(3)
Do not
carry passengers or exceed the maximum user weight (Table 2).
(4)
Do not
turn off the joystick controller by switching the On / Off Button
when moving at speed. This will bring the electromagnetic brakes on immediately and
could cause damage to the joystick controller.
(5)
Do not
drive over uneven or soft terrain.
(6)
Do not
attempt to drive over curbs greater than 1.5 inches in height. Doing so could
