LiteRider™ Owner’s Manual Rev.A_122810
II. SAFETY
DRIVING ON INCLINES
• For maximum stability, lean forward in your LiteRider’s seat while proceeding up ramps,
inclines, curbs, or any low rise. See figure 2.
• Drive with caution when attempting to negotiate any incline, even handicap access
ramps.
• Always climb or descend an incline by driving straight up or straight down the face of the
slope. See figure 2.
• Do not traverse or drive across the face of an incline in any direction. See figure 3.
• Do not attempt to negotiate an incline that is covered with snow, ice, cut or wet grass,
leaves, or any other potentially hazardous material.
• Do not back down an incline.
• Try to keep your LiteRider moving when climbing an incline. If you do come to a stop,
restart and accelerate slowly and carefully.
• Do not try to descend or climb a slope whose gradient is greater than recommended.
* LiteRider maximum recommend incline is 6°.

If, while you are driving down a slope, your scooter starts to move faster than
you feel is safe, release the throttle control lever and allow your Buzzaround XL to come to
a stop. When you feel that you again have control of your scooter, push the throttle control
lever forward and continue safely down the remainder of the slope.
DRIVING DOWN A DECLINE
• Lower speed setting.
• Whenever it is safely possible, drive forward down any ramp, low rise, or incline.
Golden Technologies, Inc. does not recommend that you drive your scooter in reverse down
any incline, ramp, curb, or low rise. Backing down any slope may create a very hazardous
situation. If it is necessary to back down a slope follow one of two procedures.
