OPERATING INFORMATION
WARNING
Wear your helmet at ALL times when riding the Excelerator.
The bicycle must be adjusted to fit the rider. Check the seat position, back height, quick release threaded
axles, footrest height, hand crank adjustment for smooth operation of your Excelerator.
Before riding your Excelerator, check your brakes. Be sure that the brakes and all other features of your
Excelerator are operating properly.
The user is responsible for normal upkeep and maintaining the Excelerator in proper operating condi-
tion.
The manufacturer is not responsible for failure, damage or injury caused by improper operation or
maintenance by the end-user.
To determine and establish your particular safety limits, practice transferring activities in the presence of
a qualified health care professional BEFORE attempting active use of the Excelerator.
Before attempting to transfer IN or OUT of the Excelerator, every precaution should be taken to reduce
the gap distance. Position the Excelerator on level ground and as close as possible to the object you
are transferring INTO or OUT of. The parking brake of the Excelerator MUST be engaged and the object
you are transferring INTO or OUT of MUST also be secured before attempting any transfers.
Care MUST BE taken when operating on roads, streets or highways.
Operation of the Excelerator is subject to all traffic rules and regulations. (This may include the use of a
safety light and reflectors for dusk/night riding.)
Give pedestrians the right of way.
Slow down at all street interprocedures and observe to the left, to the right and back to left again before
proceeding.
Use proper hand signals when turning.
DO NOT attempt to move up or down an incline with an ice or oil film.
DO NOT attempt to ride over curbs or obstacles. Doing so may cause your Excelerator to turn over and
cause bodily harm or damage to the Excelerator.
DO NOT use parts, accessories, or adapters other than those authorized by Invacare.
DO NOT attempt to lift the Excelerator by any removable (detachable) parts. Lifting by means of
any removable (detachable) parts of an Excelerator may result in injury to the user or damage to
the Excelerator.
DO NOT stand on the seat or frame of the Excelerator.
If a seat positioning strap is deemed necessary by your health care professional (doctor - therapist),
ALWAYS wear a seat positioning strap.
Avoid all surface hazards.
DO NOT carry any riders.
DO NOT carry any items that may obstruct your view or prohibit you from operating the Excelerator
properly.
DO NOT clean gear hubs with pressure water (e.g. strong water jet, high-pressure cleaner etc.). Water
that penetrates into the hub could lead to function problems. The hub has been adequately lubricated.
However, if the response of the hand crank brake should become too sharp, the brake cylinder MUST
be greased by a brake professional, using special SACHS grease Type A (F & S Part No. 0369135100).
