Boxter
These tests were conducted with the Boxsters seat in the highest position and adjusted backward on the
seat base to its farthest rearward position. Use this information as a guideline. Your Boxsters ability to
travel up inclines is affected by your weight, your PMVs speed, your angle of approach to the incline, and
your PMV setup.
n When you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. See figures 2 and 3. This shifts the center of
gravity of you and your Boxster toward the front of the PMV for improved stability.
WARNING! Do not exceed the incline guidelines or any other specifications presented in
this manual.

DRIVING SURFACES
Your Boxster was designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions; dry, level sur-
faces composed of concrete or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes the fact that there will be times when
you will operate your Boxster on surfaces other than concrete or asphalt. So we have also designed your
Boxster to perform admirably on packed soil, grass, and gravel.
n Feel free to use your Boxster safely on lawns and in park areas.
n Avoid tall grass that can entangle the running gear.
n Packed soil and gravel, such as driveways or roads, will present no problem for your Boxster.
n Avoid loosely packed gravel and sand.
n If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.
