I. INTRODUCTION

6Victory XL

You must read, understand, and follow all of the safety precautions and product information contained in this

manual before operating your Scooter for the first time. Below are some safety tips that are designed to help you

become accustomed to operating your new Scooter safely.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Motor Vehicle Transport

Never use your Scooter as a seat in a moving vehicle. Your Scooter was not designed for such use and cannot

protect you in the event of an automobile accident or an abrupt stop. Anyone traveling in a motor vehicle should be

properly secured in his/her seat with seat belts approved by the vehicle manufacturer.

II. SAFETY

WARNING! Always be sure your Scooter is properly secured when it is being transported. Failure to

do so may result in personal injury and/or damage to your Scooter.

Also, make sure to secure the batteries before loading your Scooter into a motor vehicle for transport.

Weight Limitations

Your Victory XL is rated for a maximum weight limit of 35 kg (300 lbs.).

WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your Scooter under any circumstances. Exceeding the

weight limit voids your warranty and may result in personal injury and/or damage to your Scooter.

Public Roads and Parking Lots

WARNING! Do not operate your Scooter on public streets and roadways. Please be aware it may be

difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your Scooter. Obey all local pedestrian traffic

rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed with extreme caution.

Anti-tip Precautions

nKeep both hands on the tiller and your feet on the floorboard at all times while operating your Scooter. This

position gives you the most control over your Scooter.

nUse extreme caution when driving near raised surfaces or unprotected ledges or drop-offs (kerbs, porches,

stairs, etc.).

nNever drive your Scooter across the side of an incline or diagonally up or down an incline; do not stop, if

possible, while driving up or down an incline.

nReduce your speed when approaching a turn.

nDrive slowly through turns.

7Victory XL

Tyres

II. SAFETY

WARNING! Make certain that your Scooter tyres are properly inflated (30 psi). Overinflating a tyre

can cause it to explode, possibly resulting in personal injury and/or damage to your Scooter.

WARNING! When changing a tyre, remove only the center lug nut, then remove the tyre. If any

further disassembly is required, deflat the tyre completely or it may explode, possibly resulting in

personal injury.

Batteries

Disconnect the batteries if you will not be using your Scooter for more than 48 hours.

WARNING! he batteries weigh approximately 11 kg each. If you are unable to lift that much

weight, be sure to get help. Lifting weight above your capacity to do so could result in personal

injury.

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds.

Wash hands after handling.

Always protect batteries from freezing and never charge a frozen battery. Attempting to charge a battery in freezing

conditions does not prevent a battery from freezing.

WARNING! Allowing a battery to freeze or subjecting a battery to freezing temperatures can

damage the battery. Charging a frozen battery may result in personal injury and/or damage to the

battery.

Weather Precautions

WARNING! Do not expose the electronics to any type of moisture at any time (rain, snow, mist,

or wash). Such exposure can damage the electronics. Never attempt to ride a Scooter that has

been exposed to moisture until it has dried thoroughly.

WARNING! Do not operate or store your Scooter where it may be exposed to inclement weather

conditions such as rain, snow, mist, and below-freezing temperatures (such as storage on an

outside car/van lift). Attempting to operate your Scooter in such conditions can damage the

electronics and potentially result in loss of control.

WARNING! Do not operate your Scooter in icy or slippery conditions or on salted surfaces (i.e.,

footpaths or roads). Such use may result in an accident, personal injury, or adversely affect the

performance and/or safety of your Scooter.

II. SAFETY

Lift/Elevation Products

If you are going to be traveling with your Scooter, you may find it necessary to use a lift/elevation product to aid in

transportation. Pride recommends that you review closely the instructions and specifications set forth by the

manufacturer of the lift/elevation product for use of that product.

WARNING! Never sit on your Scooter when it is being used in connection with any type of lift/

elevation product. Your Scooter was not designed with such use in mind, and any damage or injury

incurred from such use is not the responsibility of Pride.

It is imperative that you read this entire manual and understand all of the safety precautions before you attempt to

operate your new Victory XL for the first time.

Drugs and Alcohol

WARNING! Do not operate your Scooter while you are under the influence of alcohol. Alcohol can

impair your ability to operate your Scooter in a safe manner.

WARNING! Consult your physician if you are taking prescribed or over-the-counter medication or if

you have certain physical limitations. Some medications and limitations may impair your ability to

operate your Scooter in a safe manner.

Driving Surfaces

Your Scooter was designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions; dry, level surfaces

composed of concrete or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will face surfaces

other than concrete or asphalt. For that reason, we also designed your Scooter to perform admirably on packed

soil, grass, and gravel.

nFeel free to use your Scooter safely on lawns and in park areas.

nAvoid tall grass that can entangle the running gear.

nPacked soil, gravel, driveways, or roads will not present a problem for your Scooter.

nAvoid loosely packed gravel and sand.

nIf you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.

Doors

nDetermine if the door opens toward or away from you.

nUse your hand to turn the knob or push the handle or push-bar.

nDrive slowly forward to push the door open or drive slowly backward to pull the door open.

Elevators

Modern elevators have a door-edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the elevator door(s).

nIf you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or

allow the rubber door edge to contact your Scooter to reopen the door.

nUse care that pocketbooks, packages, or Victory XL accessories do not become caught in the elevator doors.

Ramps and Other Inclines

More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access.

Some ramps may have turning switchbacks that require you to have good cornering skills on your Victory XL.

nTake slow, wide swings with the front wheels around any tight corners. If you do that, the rear wheels will

follow a wide arc and will not cut the corner short, bump into, or get hung up on any railing corners.

nWhen driving down a ramp, keep the speed adjustment dial (see IV. Your Victory XL) set to the tortoise

(slowest speed setting) to ensure a safely controlled descent.

nAvoid sudden stops, starts, and turns. Reduce your speed when approaching a turn.

Maximum Recommended Incline

Other inclines may be natural or, if man-made, not designed specifically for Scooters. Figure illustrates your

Victory XLs maximum ability to climb an incline while carrying its maximum weight load.

Controlled tests show that, when you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. See figures 2 and 3. This shifts

the center of gravity of you and your Victory XL toward the front of the Scooter for improved stability.

WARNING! Do not exceed the incline guidelines or any other specifications presented in this

manual.
