4 Press the right thumb control (ﬁg 5.1.3) to start in a forward motion. You will very gently

accelerate.

5 Releasing the lever will automatically apply the brake and you will gently stop.

Practice these basic functions until you get used to them.

5.3.1 - Steering

Steering the scooter is easy and natural. Just be sure to remember to give wide clearance

when turning so that the rear wheels clear any obstacle. If you must steer in a tight spot,

such as entering a doorway or when turning around, stop, turn the handlebars to where

you want to go, then apply power gently. This will make the scooter turn very sharply, but

it will still go gently and with complete stability.

5.3.2 - Reversing

Reversing the scooter requires greater attention. Turn your Speed Adjustment Dial to slow

before you reverse (ﬁg 5.1.1). Push the left Thumb Lever Control. Remember to turn your

steering column before applying power. Steer wide of all corners and obstacles.

5.4 - DISMOUNTING

Before dismounting, ALWAYS turn key to the OFF position.

1 Locate the seat lever and pull the lever up.

2 Swing the seat away ensuring it locks into position, and ease onto your feet.

CAUTION! - If you require steadying when mounting or dismounting the scooter, use the

armrests rather than the front tiller

6. GENERAL ADVICE

6.1 - CONTROL THROUGH OBSTACLES

The chances are that when you start really using your scooter you will meet some obstacles

that will require some practice to drive through smoothly. Here are some common obstacles,

with tips that will help master them quickly. You will soon be in control through heavy doors,

up and down ramps, up and over kerbs, through grass, gravel and up hills with surprising

ease by following these tips.

6.1.1 - Control Through Doors

Approach the door slowly. If the door opens away from you, hold the doorknob or bar in

one hand and apply the power with the other hand. If it is a self closing door, you can go

through allowing the door to close behind you. If not, just stop when you are clear of the

8Shoprider Scooters User Guide

door and push it closed. If the door opens towards you, hold the knob or bar with one

hand and gently press on your left thumb lever, and allow the gentle reverse power to

do the work. When the door is open wide enough, push the forward lever and go ahead

quickly, leaving your hand on the door to keep it free of the scooter and letting go as you

pass the doorjamb.

6.1.2 - Control on Ramps

Many public buildings have ramps for scooters access. Some have a turn in the middle, and

good cornering is required. Having stopped while facing uphill, starting up again simply

requires that you apply forward power.

Going down any ramp or hill, keep the speed adjustment dial set to “Slow’. This will keep

you in a safely controlled descent. If you wish to stop completely, simply release the thumb

control lever.

6.1.3 - Control Over Grass, Gravel and Hills

The Shoprider scooter performs admirably in grass, gravel and on hills. However, you must

notexceedtheguidelinessetdowninthisguide.Please,refertothesafetyprecautions

(page 2). Safety must always come ﬁrst. If you are unsure about any situation, avoid it.

Feelfreetouseyourscooteronlawnsorinparkareas.Packedgravelsuchasondrive-ways

or roads will present no problem. Avoid long grass, loose deep gravel as well as loosely

packed sand. Because of the power of your scooter, you are able to climb steep hills, but

themaximumsafegradelimitis9°-thereasonforthisistoensureproperstability.Tryto

avoid wet weather and wet surfaces, rain or showers may cause electrical faults and wet

surfaces can become slippery.

6.2 - PARKING IN PUBLIC

If you need to park and leave the scooter, simply remove your key. This will keep the brake on

and will make your scooter difﬁcult to move. It is best to leave it in sight of someone like a

shop assistant who can watch it for you.

7. MAINTENANCE

7.1 - WHEELS AND TYRES

All Shoprider Scooters have split rim wheels. This allows any puncture to be repaired with ease.

The TE 888iX has solid tyres, these do not get punctures and do not need to be inﬂated.

7.1.1 - Changing Wheels and Tyres

When changing a wheel, remove the centre bolt and then remove the wheel. Replace with

new/repairedwheelandre-boltthecentrebolttothehub.Whenchangingatyreyou

must deﬂate the tyre. Remove the centre bolt and the four lock nut bolts after deﬂation to

split the wheel.

7.1.2 - Tyre Pressure

The recommended tyre pressures are Front 25 psi and Rear 30 psi. The tyre pressure must

notexceed50psi(psi=poundspersquareinch).Tyrepressuresshouldbecheckedregularly.

CAUTION! - On the tyre itself it states that maximum tyre pressure is 50 psi.

Please, note that this is the maximum tyre pressure and the tyres should never

be inﬂated to this pressure.
