Braking
To brake, let go of the speed/drive lever, which will let it return to the zero position and slow down your
scooter to a gentle stop. Practice pulling away and braking to get accustomed to the scooter. You
need to be able to estimate how your scooter will react when you drive or brake.
Do not turn your scooter "OFF" while driving as this will lead to an emergency stop and possible risk of
accident and injury.
Driving in corners and bends
L WARNING: Risk of tipping over - Reduce your speed before you enter a curve or
corner.
L WARNING: Risk of clamping - Always maintain an adequate distance from corners and
obstacles.
L WARNING: Risk of tipping over - Do not drive your vehicle in an "S" pattern or make
erratic turnings.
For corners and bends, use both hands to turn the handle bar in the direction you wish to take. The
front wheels will turn accordingly and steer the scooter into a new direction. It is very important that
you ensure that there is enough space allowing you to go around bends and corners. Narrow
passages must preferably be approached in a large curve so as to allow you to enter the narrowest
part as straight from the front as possible. Bear in mind that your scooter’s back part will in most cases
be wider than the front part.
Take care not to enter curves and corners diagonally. By ‘cutting the corner’, chances are that your
rear wheels will run into obstacles and destabilize your scooter.
2.7.5 Backward movement
L WARNING: Control your scooter - Accustom yourself with the driving behavior of your
scooter.
L WARNING: Control your speed - Always go backward in the lowest speed possible.
L WARNING: Risk of collision - Always look to the back when you go backward.
Rearward driving requires increased concentration and care (LEFT HAND ACTION). This explains
why we have greatly reduced the speed of rearward movement in comparison with forward driving.
But we still recommend that you put the speed lever on minimum when you drive backward.
Do not forget that the steering direction with rearward driving is the opposite of when you go forward,
and that your scooter will turn directly in the required direction.
2.7.6 Going uphill
L WARNING: Control your scooter - Accustom yourself with the driving behavior of your
scooter.
L WARNING: Control your scooter - Never put your scooter in neutral on slopes.
L WARNING: Control your speed - Moving on slopes as fast as possible.
L WARNING: Risk of tipping over - Do not exceed the maximum gradient of static
stability uphill (see paragraph "Technical specifications").
L WARNING: Never reverse going uphill.
Always approach slopes directly from the front and, to avoid tipping over, see that all four wheels stay
in contact with the ground at all times (ramps, driveways, etc.). Always lean forward when climbing a
steep gradient. Your scooter is powered through a differential. Both drive wheels should therefore stay
in contact with the ground at all times. Should one of the drive wheels no longer be in contact with the
ground, a safety device will cut the transmission of energy to the wheels, bringing the scooter to a halt.
If you come to a stop on a slope by letting go of the accelerator, the engine break will prevent your
scooter from rolling backward. As soon as the accelerator returns to zero position, the engine break is
activated.
