Adjustments
Tiller Angle Adjustment
At the bottom right hand side of the scooter you will find the tiller angle adjustment hand wheel. To adjust the
angle, loosen the handwheel by turning anti-clockwise. Once the desired angle is achieved, tighten by rotating
clockwise. Ensure the tiller is fully secure before using the scooter.
Seat Swivel
The seat has a lockable swivel base to allow easier transfers. Simply push the lever circled forward and rotate
the seat at the same time. Releasing the lever will allow the seat to lock in position. The seat locks at 45-degree
intervals. Always ensure the seat is in a locked position before mounting or dismounting the scooter. The seat
should always be locked facing forward while driving.

Seat Removal
To remove the seat, fold down the back of the seat and simply lift the seat away from the chassis while lifting the
seat swivel lever.
Caution:
Do not hang baggage or other objects on the back of the seat as this may
affect stability.
Seat Height Adjustment
Remove the seat as previously described. Undo the locking bolt from the frame and set the seat to the desired
height. Re-fit the locking pin. Re-fit the seat as described above in seat removal section.
Caution:
The higher the seat is adjusted; stability may be affected due to the higher centre of gravity.

Tiller Control
1. Battery Gauge: This gauge gives you a guide to the amount of charge left in the scooter’s batteries.
This will give the truest reading when the scooter is in motion.
Note: Always fully charge the batteries before driving your scooter and never let the batteries become
completely drained, as this may cause permanent damage to the batteries.
2. Horn: The button operates the scooters horn. This should only be used to warn others of your presence
and not as a rebuke of any form.
Note: This should only be used to warn others of your presence and not as a rebuke of any form
3. Maximum Speed Knob: The speed control enables you to set the maximum speed of the scooter.
Turn clockwise to increase the maximum speed and anti-clockwise to decrease.
Note: Always start at a slow speed until accustomed with the characteristics of your scooter. Do not put
excessive pressure on the dial. Only turn as far as the stops
4. Front Lights: This button operates the LED headlight.
5. On/OffKey: The key switch is located on the right side of the tiller. Simply insert the key and turn
clockwise to switch the power on. The display will light up to indicate the power is on. There may be a
slight delay before the thumb levers operate as the controller checks the scooter’s circuits.
Note: Never leave the key in the switch unattended to prevent unauthorized use. Do not switch the
power off to stop the scooter unless it is an emergency. The scooter will stop very abruptly if stopped in
this way.

Brake Release / Free Wheel Operation
The brake release lever is situated at the right rear of the scooter. This lever allows you to disengage the drive
mechanism and push the scooter in 'freewheel' mode.
1. Disengage the drive: Push the lever forward until you reach the stop position (indicated by the 'N'
direction.)
2. Re-engage the drive: Simply push the lever toward the back of the scooter the Drive position- 'D'
position. The scooter will not operate when the lever is in the disengaged position. The scooter must be
turned off and on by the key switch to reset the circuits before it will resume normal operation. The
scooter will beep continually if the brake is disengaged when it is switched on.
Caution:
Never leave the scooter unattended whilst in free wheel mode as it will roll away down an incline.
'Free wheel' mode should only be used in an emergency to move the scooter due to power failure.
NEVER move the scooter in this mode whilst it is occupied. NEVER tow the scooter.
Note:
When in free wheel mode the scooter may be pushed on level ground at a walking pace. The
scooter will 'auto-brake' if this speed is exceeded.
Caution:
Never sit on the scooter and free wheel down a hill as this can cause permanent damage to the
motor, brake and controller due to excessive regenerative braking. As above the scooter can only
be moved at a walking pace when in freewheel mode.

Getting Started
Check list
Please check the following before moving
• You must fully charge the batteries prior to first use. ('See Batteries and Charging')
• Select a space.
• Mount the scooter by lifting the arm and sliding into the seat.
• Ensure the seat is securely locked in the forward position before driving.
• Adjust the tiller and seat if necessary. (See 'Adjustments')
• Do not use the tiller to fully support you during transfer.

Insert the key and switch on the power. Start by setting the speed control to a low setting. The further you pull
the lever the faster the scooter will travel, but only to the maximum speed that has been selected. Release the
lever and the scooter will come to a smooth, controlled stop.
