III. YOUR SCOOTER
SECURING THE SCOOTER
Always secure the scooter in a forward-facing position in the vehicle. Attach the four tie-down straps to
the designated securement points. See figures 9, 9A, and 9B. Tighten the straps to sufficiently remove
all slack. Never attach tie-downs to adjustable, moving, or removable parts of the scooter such as armrests,
shrouds, and wheels. These items should be removed. Position the anchor points for the rear tie-down
straps directly behind the rear securement points on the scooter. The front tie-down straps should anchor
to floor points that are spaced wider than the scooter to provide increased lateral stability.
WARNING! Ensure scooters are properly secured to the motor vehicle during transport.
Scooters that are not properly secured can become a hazard to the user and to other
vehicle passengers in the event of a crash, sudden stopping, or swerving, as the scooter
could tip or slide out of place.
