Anit-Roll Back Feature; Anti-Stall Feature; High Pedal Disable Feature; Diagnostic Mode Feature - Cushman Titan 36V Owner's Manual And Service Manual

Read all of Manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Anti-Roll Back Feature
Anti-Roll Back, like Walk-Away, limits backward motion of
the vehicle down an incline to less than 2 mph (3 kph).
See 'Walk-Away Feature' above.

Anti-Stall Feature

Anti-Stall protection prevents motor damage from stalling
the vehicle against an object or on a hill.
Example: If all of the following events occur...
a) the system senses that the accelerator pedal is
depressed (power applied to motor)
b) the motor is stalled long enough that any more
time may cause motor damage
the PDS system will momentarily interrupt power to the
motor. This brief interruption will permit the vehicle to roll
backwards slightly before again stopping in the stalled
condition. This process will repeat itself periodically until
the vehicles is moved from the stalled condition.
Example: If all of the following events occur...
a) the system senses that the accelerator pedal is
depressed (power applied to motor)
b) the brake is engaged so as to prevent vehicle
motion
the PDS system will sense a stalled motor condition and
remove power from the motor. When the brake pedal is
released, the vehicle will roll backwards slightly before
power is returned to the motor.

High Pedal Disable Feature

High pedal disable prevents undesired acceleration if the
direction selector lever is changed, or the key is turned
on while the accelerator is depressed.

Diagnostic Mode Feature

Diagnostic mode eases troubleshooting.
In the unlikely event of certain electrical system failures,
the PDS controller will default to a mode that will permit
the vehicle to operate, but at a very reduced speed.
This feature allows the vehicle to be driven back to its
storage facility where the problem can be diagnosed.
The controller can be put in diagnostic mode by the tech-
nician and the controller will report the failure mode.
OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION

STARTING AND DRIVING

To reduce the possibility of roll-back which
could result in severe injury or vehicle damage,
do not release the foot brake until motor has
started.
All vehicles are equipped with an interlock system that
disables the controller and prevents the vehicle from
being operated while the charger is connected to an AC
supply. Remove charger plug from the AC receptacle
and properly store cable prior to moving vehicle.
To operate vehicle:
•
•
•
•
•
When the direction selector is in the reverse position, a warning
signal will sound to indicate that the vehicle is ready to run in
reverse.

LABELS AND PICTOGRAMS

Vehicles may be labeled with pictograms as a method of
conveying information or warnings. Appendix A illus-
trates and explains pictograms that may appear on the
vehicle. Not all pictograms shown in Appendix A will be
found on your vehicle.

TOWING A TRAILER

The vehicle may be equipped with a pintle hitch. The
trailer and its load must not exceed 500 lbs (227 kg) and
no more than 50 lbs (23 kg) tongue weight may be
attached to the hitch. Remember that the overall capacity
of the vehicle, operator, passenger, contents of loadbed
and accessories must be reduced to compensate for the
trailer and load.
The range of motion of the trailer is limited by the hitch.
The trailer should not be used on rough trails or over
objects such as logs, large rocks, holes, etc.
