The Cooper is the ultimate combination of style, comfort and portability. [. . . ] Battery Level Indicator Gauge Where the needle sits, shows the amount of charge left in your batteries. The amount of charge will only show at its true level when the scooter is in drive. Always charge the batteries completely before beginning out on any journey. Caution ­ Do not allow the gauge needle to go down completely as complete discharge of the batteries could cause irreversible battery damage. Thumb Lever Controls The left thumb lever controls the reverse and the right thumb lever controls the forward motion. The amount of pressure applied to each lever will determine the speed the scooter travels at up to the speed selected. Release the thumb lever and the scooter will automatically come to a stop as the electromagnetic brake is applied to the motor. On/Off Key Switch Insert the key into the key switch located on top of the tiller. There may be a slight delay before the thumb lever control can be operated, while the main controller checks the circuits. Electromagnetic Brake The brake is automatically operated when the thumb control levers are pressed or released. There is a slight delay when the scooter accelerates and decelerates; this allows the scooter to start smoothly and come to a smooth stop. Speed Control Dial Thumb Lever Control (Reverse) Battery Level Indicator Gauge Thumb Lever Control (Forward) On/Off Key Switch Horn Button Figure 7 9 DRIVE/FREEWHEEL OPERATION (FIG 8) The drive/freewheel lever (red handle) is located under the seat at the right rear of unit. This lever allows you to disengage the drive mechanism and push the scooter while in freewheel mode. To disengage the drive mechanism (neutral), move the lever forward (the scooter can now be pushed). To re-engage the drive mechanism (drive), move the lever backward (now the unit may be driven). Note: The scooter will not operate while the drive/freewheel lever is in the neutral position (forward). The scooter must be turned off, lever moved backward (drive position) and then turned on in order to reset the circuits. Anti-tip wheels The anti-tip wheels are located at the rear of the scooter frame (Fig 8). When starting off ensure that you give a wide clearance when turning so that the rear wheels clear any obstacle that you are passing. When steering through limited spaces such as a doorway or when turning around, turn the tiller handles where you want to go and apply power gently. The scooter will turn very tightly, but will still move with complete stability as long as the speed is not too high. Reversing Before reversing ensure that the area behind is free from any hazards or obstructions. Adjust your speed setting to a low setting before you move in reverse. [. . . ] · Most lubricated components on the Cooper Portable scooter are designed to be maintenance free and are sealed. However, the driving axles and seat post should always have a very light coat of multipurpose grease. · It is recommended that the driving axles (inside the drive wheel assembly) be checked and cleaned occasionally for hair and debris build-up, which will hinder the performance of the unit. For extended battery life, it is highly recommended that the batteries be fully charged after each use. [. . . ]
