PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK
Get to know the feel of your PTV and its capabilities. The SCOOTER Store recommends that you perform a
safety check before each use to make sure your PTV operates smoothly and safely. For details on how to perform
these necessary inspections, see section XI. “Care and Maintenance.”
Perform the following inspections prior to using your PTV:
n Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
n Check the brakes.
n Check battery charge.
If you discover a problem, contact The SCOOTER Store for assistance.
WEIGHT LIMITATIONS
Your PTV is rated for a 250-lb. maximum weight limit.
WARNING! Exceeding the weight limit voids your warranty and may result in personal injury and
damage to your PTV. The SCOOTER Store will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property
damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your PTV. Carrying passengers may result in personal injury
and/or property damage.
GETTING ONTO AND OFF OF YOUR PTV
Use caution when standing on the PTV's floorboard, as uneven surfaces beneath the PTV can impair the stability.
Getting onto and off of your PTV requires a good sense of balance. Please observe the following safety tips when
getting onto and off of your PTV:
n Power down your PTV. See section VII. “Operation.”
n Ensure that your PTV is not in freewheel mode. See section V. “Your PTV.”
n Make certain that the seat is locked into place and the key is removed from the key switch.
WARNING! Position yourself as far back as possible in the PTV seat to prevent the PTV from tipping
and causing injury.
WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the floorboard. Such use may cause the PTV to tip
and cause personal injury.
WARNING! If you have the optional seat upgrade with armrests, avoid using your armrests for
weight bearing purposes. Such use may cause your PTV to tip and cause personal injury
