If you must steer in a tight spot, such as entering a doorway

or when turning around, stop, turn the handlebars to where

you want to go, then apply the power gently. This will make

the Companion turn sharply. It will still go gently, and with

complete stability. Practice in an open area, until you are

proficient.

Reversing requires attention. Be sure your ‘Speed Adjustment

Dial’ is turned to minimum before you reverse (Fig 8, page8).

Push the left thumb reverse control lever (Fig 9, page 9).

Remember, when you reverse you have to steer in the

opposite direction to the way you want to go. Practice is

required here, again use that open space. Please note as a

safety requirement reverse speed is half of forward speed.

Note: If your Companion is set up for left forward driving

the afore mentioned description is reversed.

REMEMBER: If it is a tight turn, turn your steering column

before applying power. Steer wide of all corners and

obstacles, please move slowly and with care.

Warning: Do not turn your ‘on-off ’ power key switch to

the ‘off’ position when your Companion is in motion,

failure to observe this warning may irreparably damage the

main electronic speed control unit or drive transmission.

Always first slow your Companion down to a stationery

position before you switch your Scooter off.

CONTROL THROUGH TIGHT SPOTS

When you start using your Companion you will meet some

obstacles that will require some practice to drive through

smoothly.

Here are some common problems, with tips that will help

you master them quickly. You will soon be in control through

doors and up and down ramps with surprising ease by

following these tips.

CONTROL THROUGH DOORS

Approach an unfamiliar door slowly, sizing it up. Does it have

a knob or push bar? Does it open toward you or away? Think

in terms of using the power of the Companion to do the

work for you! You need not strain.

Hold the doorknob or bar in one hand and apply power with

the other hand. (Remember that you can drive forwards by

using your left thumb to move the wig-wag lever towards

you.) If the door is self closing, you can go through, allowing

the door to close behind you, if you go quickly enough. If

not, just stop when you’re clear of the door and push it

closed.

If the door opens toward you, hold the knob or bar with one

hand and gently let the reverse power do the work. When the

door is open wide enough, go ahead quickly, leaving the hand

on the door to keep it free of the Scooter and letting go as

you pass the doorjamb. It is an easy technique. Practice makes

perfect. Remember - your Companion can do the work

without wearing you out!

Going through doors, with the back wheels: If you’re not

moving, your rear wheel is probably caught. Reverse and try

again. Take your time - relax - enjoy yourself.

CONTROL ON AN INCLINE

More and more buildings have ramps for wheelchair access.

Some have a change of direction in the middle, and good

cornering is required.

Make a wide manoeuvre with your front wheel around tight

corners, so that your back wheels follow a wide arc to stay

clear of the corner.

If you stop while facing uphill, the automatic parking brake

will hold you safe. To start again, slowly push the forward

direction lever, the parking brake will release and you will

start to move.

When you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward,

(Fig 13). This moves the centre of gravity of your Companion

towards the front of the Scooter for improved stability.

When going down an incline, keep your speed slow. This will

keep you in a safely controlled descent. It is best to lean

backwards, this moves the centre of gravity of your

Companion towards the rear of the scooter for improved

stability. If you wish to stop completely, release the control

lever, and you will come to a gentle stop, avoid sudden stop

starts.

Warning: Do not exceed the incline guidelines or any other

specifications presented in this manual.

CONTROL OVER STATIONARY OBSTACLES

Stationery obstacles (steps, kerbs etc) must be avoided where

possible. Your Companion has small wheels and a ground

clearance of 4.0cm. Proceed with extreme caution when

driving near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges and/or drop-

offs such as kerbs, porches, stairs etc.
