Most new pavements have wheelchair access ramps at

intersections, use these at all times. Plan your route where

possible to avoid poor and uneven surfaces. Do not attempt

to ride up or down kerbs as you may ground your Scooter

and damage it's construction.

CONTROL OVER GRASS & GRAVEL ETC.

Care must be taken when attempting to drive over soft

surfaces such as those found in parks etc. The surface may

look level, but this can be deceiving and hidden dangers may

make your

bootie

become unstable or grounded.

Avoid unkept grass, loose deep gravel or sand, do not exceed

the capabilities of your Scooter.

Always have an attendant to assist you in circumstances

where you are not certain of the terrain. Always anticipate

and think safety.

Caution:

Because of the power of your

bootie

, you will be

able to climb inclines. But the maximum safe gradient

limit is 8 degrees. The reason for this is to ensure good

stability.

Always have the anti-tipping wheels fitted to your machine

(Fig 13) when climbing angles or obstacles. Always avoid

turning on slopes or climbing kerbs.

Always make certain that your

bootie

is in full working

order before attempting to drive.

Never attempt to drive beyond the design capability of your

bootie

ootie

. Observe weather conditions. Tyres can slip on wet or

icy surfaces.

DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH DEEP WATER OR LEAVE

YOUR bootie EXPOSED TO HEAVY RAIN.

i.e. During or after a thunderstorm.

FIG 13

Anti-tipping wheels

Do not attempt to turn when negotiating an incline, only turn

when all wheels are fully on or off the incline; failure to

observe this warning could result in the machine becoming

unstable and toppling over.

Always lean forward when ascending an incline and

backwards when decending an incline. This will enable you to

maintain good stability and will eliminate any chance of an

upset.

PLEASE NOTE: The rear stability of your Scooter is

dependent on a number of factors which you should

consider before attempting to climb an incline or other

obstacle: (a) your height; (b) the height of your seat;

attempting to climb. All of these factors can affect the rear

stability of your b

ootie

. If you are unsure of your capability

to climb an obstacle, then try another route - always think

'safety first'.

Please take care and be safe

TRANSPORTING YOUR bootie

Whether it is for a holiday, a day out to visit family or friends,

or a trip to the shops, your

bootie

can be taken along too.

Depending on the size or model of your car you will be able

to load your

bootie

in one of the following methods.

1. With the aid of a car hoist. Your dealer will be able to

advise on suitable equipment.

2. With the aid of ramps. Ramps will aid you to wheel your

bootie

straight into a people carrier or estate car. If the

rear opening is low you may have to remove your

bootie

seat and lower the handlebars.

3. With the seat and batteries removed to reduce weight, lift

the scooter in one piece into a small hatchback or estate

car (see Fig 14).

4. If your car is small or has a conventional boot, your

bootie

can be dismantled into five basic parts (Fig 21 page 18)

FIG 14

DISMANTLING YOUR bootie FOR JOURNEYS AWAY.

To enable your

bootie

to be carried in a suitable estate or

hatchback car (see fig 14), follow these simple instructions

for dismantling your scooter. This procedure can be carried

out quickly and without tools.

Fitting is as follows:

DISMANTLING PROCEDURE

Drive your

bootie

close to the vehicle into which you are

about to load it. You may need some assistance to lift the

components once your machine is dismantled.

1. Switch off your scooter. First remove the seat by releasing

the 'black' locking lever and lift the seat upwards slightly

twisting. This will release it from its mounting tube.

2. Lift the black battery pack positioned to the rear of

your foot mat (Fig 15).

3. Carefully lift up battery pack. Use two hands for this

operation, one on the strap and one to steady the battery.

4. Lift the front wire basket from the mounting bracket on

the handlebar cover, you will note this mounts on three

clips (Fig 17).

Place the batteries on a firm and safe surface. Your batteries

are sealed and cannot spill if tipped over. Always carry the

batteries upright.

Warning:

Do not place metal objects over open battery

terminals. BEWARE of short circuits.

5. Lower the handlebars by releasing the locking lever

(Fig 16). The handlebar will rest close to the floor mat.

Note place a soft piece of material under the painted

console for protection.

6. Locking Mechanism : The front and rear chassis

components are locked into position with a spring loaded

pin (Fig 15). The spring loaded pin locates into

a hole in the rear of the front chassis unit preventing the

two chassis components from lifting apart during driving.

To unlock the two chassis parts pull the locking pin

mechanism knob in an upward direction.
