Repair or Service Information
Safety/Handling of Powered Scooters
“Safety and Handling” of the powered scooter requires the close attention of the user. This manual points out the most common procedures and
techniques involved in the safe operation and maintenance. It is important to practice and master these safe techniques until you are comfortable in
maneuvering the powered scooter.
Use this information only as a “basic” guide. The techniques that are discussed have been used successfully by many. Individual users often develop
skills to deal with daily living activities that may differ from those described in this manual. Invacare recognizes and encourages each individual to try
what works best for him/her in overcoming obstacles that they may encounter; however, all warnings and cautions given in this manual MUST be
followed. Techniques in this manual are a starting point for the new powered scooter user with “safety” as the most important consideration for all.

WARNING
Scooters should be examined during maintenance for signs of corrosion (water exposure, incontinence, etc.). Electrical
components damaged by corrosion should be replaced IMMEDIATELY.
Scooters that are used by incontinent users and/or are frequently exposed to water may require replacement of electrical
components more frequently.
Set-up of the Electronics Control Unit is to be performed only by a qualified technician. The final adjustments of the
controller may affect other activities of the scooter. Damage to the equipment could occur if improperly set-up or
adjusted.
DO NOT service or adjust your powered scooter while occupied, unless otherwise noted.
DO NOT overtighten hardware attaching to the frame. This could cause damage to the frame tubing.
