PERFORMANCE
Vehicles operate only when the Run - Tow/Maintenance/Storage switch is in the RUN position.
The vehicle’s top speed is sensed and regulated directly by the controller and the feature to slow the vehicle when
the accelerator pedal is up is mild.
Speed Control
To prevent the possibility of loss of control that could cause severe injury or death, use service
brake to control speed. The Speed control system is not a substitute for the service brake.
Speed control system vehicles are equipped with a regenerative motor control system.
Example: If all of the following events occur...
a) the vehicle is being driven down a slope
b) the vehicle attempts to exceed the specified top speed with the accelerator pedal depressed or released
the regenerative braking will limit the speed of the vehicle to the specified top speed (the warning beeper will not
sound). When the regenerative braking system is activated by this sequence of events, the motor generates power
which is returned to the batteries.
STARTING AND DRIVING
To reduce the possibility of roll-back which could result in severe injury or vehicle damage, do
not release the service brake until motor has started.
All vehicles are equipped with an interlock system that disables the controller and prevents the vehicle from being
operated or moved while the charger is connected. Disconnect the charger cord from the receptacle and properly
store the cord prior to moving the vehicle.
To operate the vehicle:
• Apply the pressure to the brake pedal, place the key in the key switch and turn it to the ON position.
• Move the direction selector to the direction desired.
• Release the park brake.
• Slowly depress the accelerator pedal to start the motor. Release the brake pedal when the motor starts.
• When the accelerator pedal is released, the motor controls the deceleration. To stop the vehicle more quickly,
depress the service brake pedal.
When the direction selector is in the reverse position, a warning signal will sound to indicate that the vehicle is ready to run in
reverse.
Starting Vehicle On A Hill
