II. SAFETY
When climbing an incline, try to keep your Travel Scooter moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly and then
accelerate cautiously. When driving down an incline, do so by setting the speed adjustment dial to the slowest
setting and driving in the forward direction only. If your Travel Scooter starts to move down the incline faster than
you anticipated or desired, allow it to come to a complete stop by releasing the throttle control lever. Then engage
the throttle control lever slightly to ensure a safely controlled descent.
WARNING! When on any sort of an incline or decline, never place the Travel Scooter
in freewheel mode, especially while seated on it or standing next to it.
WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face
of the incline. Drive your Travel Scooter straight up the incline. This greatly reduces
the possibility of a tip or a fall. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating
an incline.
WARNING! Do not drive your Travel Scooter across the side of an incline or diagonally
up or down an incline; do not stop, if possible, while driving up or down an incline.
WARNING! You should not travel up or down a potentially hazardous incline (i.e.,
areas covered with snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves).
WARNING! Even though your Travel Scooter is capable of climbing slopes greater
than those illustrated in figure 1, do not, under any circumstances, exceed the
incline guidelines or any other specifications presented in this manual. Doing so
could cause instability in your Travel Scooter.
Handicap public access ramps are not subject to government regulation in all countries and therefore do not
necessarily share the same standard percent of slope. Other inclines may be natural or, if man-made, not designed
specifically for Travel Scooters. Figure 1 illustrates your Travel Scooter’s stability and its ability to climb grades
under various weight loads and under controlled testing conditions.
These tests were conducted with the Travel Scooter’s seat in the highest position and adjusted rearward on the
seat base to its farthest rearward position. Use this information as a guideline. Your Travel Scooter’s ability to travel
up inclines is affected by your weight, your Travel Scooter’s speed, your angle of approach to the incline and your
Travel Scooter setup.
WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than what is shown in figure
1 may put your Travel Scooter in an unstable position and cause it to tip.
WARNING! Never carry an oxygen tank weighing more than 15 lbs. (6.8 kg). Never fill the
front or rear basket with contents exceeding 15 lbs. (6.8 kg).
