Shoprider Solares FS777, User Manual

Continued….. 

 
Product Stability 

Scooters and powered wheelchairs are designed to allow the user flexibility of 
movement in restricted areas. Driving at maximum speed and attempting sharp turns 
can create a situation where the product becomes unstable. Therefore it is essential 

that the user pay attention to the guidance set out in this manual. 
 

For maximum stability the speed setting should be set up to 50% of the maximum 
available (halfway between the tortoise and the hare or just entering the red sector on 

the speed indicator depending on the model.) 

 
The main factors affecting stability are: 



Maximum speed setting 



Seat height 



User movement 



User’s manoeuvres 



Gradients or slopes 

 
Please keep your speed to a level where you can safely stop without having to make 
any erratic turns. 
Do not load bags etc. on the back of the seat as this will affect the centre of gravity 
and could cause instability. 
Do not lean outside of the ‘footprint’ of the product, especially whilst moving. 
Avoid making turns on gradients or slopes. 
 
 

Driving in Pedestrian Areas 

As mentioned previously, when using the scooter in pedestrian areas always lower your 
maximum speed to that of the pedestrians around you. Remember the stopping 
distance  of  your  scooter  and  always  allow  enough  space  to  stop  safely  to  avoid 
collisions with pedestrians or other objects.
