Driving The Scooter On Ramps - Vermeiren Carpo 2 SE Manual De Instrucciones

To resume your uphill drive, push the accelerator throttle open fully to ensure the release of a
sufficient amount of power. This will allow your scooter to slowly ascend the slope.
If your scooter is unable to drive up, turn the speed control up and try again.
When driving on a gradient, the battery indicator light might move up and down. This is a normal
phenomenon so please do not worry.

scooter.
L
WARNING:
Control your scooter - Never put your scooter in neutral on slopes.

WARNING:
Risk of tipping over - Do not exceed the maximum gradient of static
stability downhill (see paragraph "Technical specifications").
Always approach downhill slopes directly from the front. Slantwise approaches can lead to some of
the wheels no longer staying in contact with the ground (danger of tipping over). If one of the back
wheels fails to make contact, the transmission of power will be cut and the scooter come to a
standstill.
The weight of the scooter will increase your downhill speed. Turn the speed control down and adjust
your speed to the conditions.
Avoid sharp bends on downhill slopes. The weight of your scooter could cause your scooter to lift up
on one side or even fall over around bends.

L
WARNING:
Risk of injury - Choose the correct ramps so there cannot be caused any
injury or damage.

generated large reverse forces when an attendant is pushing the scooter over the
ramps.

Risk of injury - Be sure that the wheel height is high enough to get over the
free height of the ramps. The scooter frame may not touch the ramps.
Should you wish to use ramps to drive over an obstacle, please note the following:
