Warning: Always inflate your tyres from a regulated air source.
Over inflation from an unregulated air source could over
inflate your tyres resulting in “blow out” or personal injury. It
is critically important that pneumatic tyres are inflated to 30
p.s.i. (210 kpa). Do not over inflate your tyres to the
maximum inflation pressure of 50 p.s.i. (350 kpa) indicated
on the tyre cover, failure to observe this warning could damage
your Scooter wheels.
MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORTATION
Currently there are no standards approved for “tie down”
systems in a moving vehicle of any type to transport a person
while seated in a Scooter.
Although your Scooter may be equipped with a positioning
belt *, this is not designed to provide proper restraint during
motor vehicle movements.
Anyone travelling in a motor vehicle should be properly
secured in the motor vehicle seat with a safety belt fastened
securely.
Warning: Do not sit on your Scooter while it is in a moving
vehicle. Personal injury may result. Warning: Always make
certain that your Companion is properly secured when being
transported. Failure to comply may result in personal injury
and/or damage to your Scooter.
* POSITIONING SAFETY BELT (NOT SUPPLIED)
Your authorised Freerider Agent, therapist and other healthcare
professionals are responsible for determining your requirement
for a positioning belt in order to operate your Scooter safely.
Warning: If you require a positioning belt to safely operate
your Scooter, make certain it is adjusted and fastened securely.
Serious personal injury may result if you fall from your
Scooter.
ACCESSING YOUR SCOOTER
Getting on and off your Scooter requires a good sense of
balance. Please observe the following tips when getting on or
off your Scooter:
Make certain your Companion Scooter is switched off at
the power switch, and the power key is removed.
Ensure your Companion is not in the freewheel mode (see
page 9 - Freewheeling your Companion)
Make certain the seat and handlebars are locked firmly into
position.
The seat armrests can be lifted up to make access easier.
Make certain you do not attempt to drive with the armrests
raised.
Warning: Position yourself as far back into the Scooter seat as
possible to prevent tipping and causing injury.
Warning: Avoid using the armrests for weight bearing
purposes, such use may cause the Scooter to tip and cause
personal injury and/or damage to the Scooter.
Warning: Avoid putting weight onto the steering handlebars,
such use may cause the Scooter to tip and cause personal
injury and/or damage to the Scooter.
Warning: Avoid putting all of your weight onto the footboard,
such use may cause the Scooter to tip and cause personal
injury.
MODIFICATIONS
Freerider has designed your Companion Scooter to provide
maximum mobility. A range of accessories are available from
Authorised Freerider Agents, to further customise your
Scooter needs. However, under no circumstances should you
modify, add, remove or disable any feature, part or function of
your machine. Warning: Failure to observe this warning may
result in personal injury and/or damage to your Scooter.
INCLINES
More and more modern buildings are designed with disability
access in mind. Ramps have specified percentage of inclination,
designed for easy and safe access. Some ramps may have
turning switchbacks (180 degree turns) that require you to
have good cornering skills on your Scooter.
Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the
downgrade of a ramp or other incline, sit right back in
your seat, brace your arms on the handlebars and your feet
on the floorboard
Take a wide arc with your Companion’s front wheel around
tight corners, your rear wheels will follow preventing you
from cutting the corner short and bumping or getting hung
up on raised kerbs.
When descending an incline keep your speed adjustment
set to the slowest speed setting to ensure a safely
controlled descent and driving in a forward direction
only. If your Scooter descent is quicker than you
anticipated allow the Scooter to completely stop, then
progress at a slower speed setting. Warning: Never drive
down an incline at full speed.
When climbing an incline, try to keep your Scooter
moving, if you must stop, start up again slowly and then
accelerate smoothly with caution. Avoid sudden stop
starts, lean forward towards your handlebars to increase
stability and prevent rearward tipping.
Warning: When climbing an incline, do not zig-zag or drive at
an angle up the face of the incline. Drive your Scooter
smoothly up the incline without stopping, this greatly reduces
the possibility of a tip or fall.
Warning: You should not travel over a potentially hazardous
incline i.e. areas covered with ice or snow, cut grass or wet
leaves or any unstable surface.
Warning: Do not overload your Scooter at the rear when
climbing an incline. Always lean forward to provide the best
stability and prevent rearward tipping.
Warning: Any attempt to climb or descend an incline steeper
than shown in the Scooter Specification at the rear of this
manual may put your Scooter in an unstable position and
cause it to tip, resulting in personal injury.
