RIDING YOUR BUZZAROUND LITE
™ cont.
When proceeding up any ramp, curb, or incline:
• Lean forward in your seat to move your center of gravity forward for
maximum stability and safety.
RISK OF ACCIDENTS!
Negotiating curbs requires practice.
Please observe the maximum obstacle heights of 2 inches.
Please start practicing curb climbing with small curbs.
If the ramp has a switchback, good cornering ability is required.
• Maneuver your scooter so that the front wheels take wide swings around
the corners of the ramp.
• Doing this will allow your scooter’s back wheels to follow a wide arc
around the corner, staying clear of obstacles.
If you must stop your scooter while driving up a ramp:
• Starting up again simply requires that you apply gentle and steady forward
power (pressure to the right-hand thumb lever).
• Accelerate gently after stopping on any incline.
Driving down a ramp:
• Keep your Buzzaround Lite™ speed control dial set fully counterclockwise
at the slowest speed setting.
• If you must come to a stop, release the thumb control lever slowly and
smoothly.
