Leisure-Lift PaceSaver Espree Electric 3-Wheel Scooter: Introduction
Congratulations on your choice of a PaceSaver scooter! It is a dependable vehicle built for power and performance. The PaceSaver's rear wheel drive system will out perform front wheel drive styles on any surface, indoors or out. It has excellent handling characteristics and its compact design makes it agile in even the smallest places. The PaceSaver's patented separation makes it easy to assemble and disassemble. It's easy to operate controls give you more of what you are looking for in a scooter.
But it is important that you understand what your scooter is, and what it is not. Our scooters (like all scooters) are designed to provide safe, reliable transportation to older or mildly physically handicapped individuals who have difficulty in getting around. It will safely take you everywhere the specifications indicate as long as you follow the simple safety guidelines shown on the next few pages.
PaceSavers are not all terrain vehicles that you can use out in the fields to drag brush around or climb steep hills. They were not meant to go hunting in, or transport you thru hazardous environments. They also are NOT designed for the severely handicapped individual who is trying to avoid a power wheelchair. You mush have good stability, motor control and above all else, good common sense to use our scooter, or any other brand. If you feel that you cannot safely operate this vehicle at all times, you should not use a scooter!

ELECTROPEDIC SINCE 1964
Leisure-Lift PaceSaver Espree Electric 3-Wheel Scooter: SAFETY GUIDELINES:
ALWAYS turn the key switch to the OFF position when stopped or when getting off or on the PaceSaver. This keeps you from accidentally hitting the throttle and causing an accident. For persons with limited lower body strength, or persons who make slide transfers and may forget to turn the key switch off, we recommend the use of the delta tiller option. Delta tillers can limit access to controls for people with limited hand flexibility - Fingertip controls may be required.
USE EXTRA CAUTION when riding your PaceSaver off of the pavement or on rough, uneven surfaces or tipping and injury will result. If you intend to operate your PaceSaver on rough, uneven surfaces, and are willing to sacrifice indoor maneuverability, consider our Wide Tire Option (not available on certain styles ) for increased stability.
DO NOT EXCEED the incline specifications for the style of PaceSaver that you own or it will become unstable and tipping will result. Persons with limited ability to protect themselves (like persons paralyzed on one side) should use protective equipment such as bicycle headgear. The specification chart in your manual will indicate the maximum incline for your particular style scooter.
KEEP YOUR FEET on the floorpan while riding the PaceSaver to avoid hitting them on objects as you drive.
LOCK THE SEAT assembly before operating the PaceSaver to prevent yourself from falling from the seat while moving.
REMEMBER, the PaceSaver is built to carry a single person. Do not carry passengers under any circumstances or accidents and bodily injury will occur.
ALWAYS go straight up or down curb cuts or a ditch, not at an angle. You want the front wheels and the rear wheels to climb up or go down together, not one at a time. Not doing this will result in the steering tiller violent swinging from side to side (as a car would in a ditch) or the scooters overturning. Always approach curb access ramps the same way, straight on, not at an angle. NEVER attempt to go up or down a regular height curb or tipping and personal injury will result!
DRIVING the PaceSaver in busy streets, busy parking lots, or in crowded shopping malls CAN BE DANGEROUS for you or other people as you may be struck by a vehicle or you might strike a pedestrian. Use caution in congested areas at all times.
LEAN FORWARD a slight amount when traveling up an incline.
NEVER leave your scooter exposed to the elements. This includes storage outside or carrying the scooter on an outside car-lift during periods of high moisture (mist, rain, snow, etc) or any other inclement weather (dust or sand storms, etc.)
USE CAUTION when driving off of a curb or raised surface. The act of dropping off the edge subjects the scooter to extreme forces that can damage the frame and other components. This type of damage is not covered under warranty.
DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES before performing any maintenance or if you will not be riding the scooter for more than a few days. This avoids both the possibility of injuries due to shock and helps lengthen the battery life. Make sure that the batteries are secure when you are using the scooter.
FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS of your doctor and/or pharmacist at all times. Do not drive the PaceSaver while taking medications that affect your reflexes or mental judgment, as your driving will be impaired and accidents may result. Do not drink alcohol and operate this or any other vehicle.
THE FOLLOWING ARE IMPORTANT THINGS TO HELP YOU DRIVE THE PACESAVER IN THE SAFEST POSSIBLE MANNER. PLEASE TAKE NOT OF EACH AND EVERY ONE.
WARNING DO NOT engage in the following activities with your PaceSaver of serious personal injury may result:
1. Ride the PaceSaver with the brake disengaged at any time.
2. Drive the PaceSaver diagonally across inclines, turn sharp or make turns at or near full throttle at any time. Doing this will result in the steering tiller violently swinging from side to side (as a car would in a ditch) or over turning and serious person injury will result.
3. Drive the PaceSaver with under-inflated tires as this increases the possibility of tipping and injury. Your stability and efficiency (power and range) are also greatly affected.
4. Remain seated on your scooter while it is being loaded into a vehicle on a lift or personal injury may result.
5. Use the PaceSaver as a seat in a moving vehicle as NO SCOOTER is designed to withstand the impact of an automobile accident. The rider should seated in a regular automobile seat and restrained by an approved automobile safety belt. Also, the scooter and batteries MUST be independently and properly restrained or stored in a separate compartment so as to prevent it from causing injury in an accident.
6. Stop on any incline to rest or dismount. Although the electric brake will stop and hold you, it is best to stop in level, flat areas where there is no possibility of rolling or tipping the unit.
7. Drive on inclines greater than the rating for your style PaceSaver or tipping will result. Refer to the Specification Sheet and Ramp Incline Chart on the back page of Owner's Manual.
8. Allow the PaceSaver controls to become wet. Never wash off the scooter using a hose or a stream of water, drive through standing water or ride in the rain. Possible loss of control and/or electronic damage will occur. Do not attempt to ride a scooter that has been soaked until it has had a chance to dry thoroughly.
9. Leave the PaceSaver where it is exposed to high temperatures (a car trunk, etc.) or to poor weather conditions such as rain or snow or freezing conditions as damage to the unit will occur.
10. Disassemble any wheel at any time while still inflated. The pressure may blow wheel rims apart while you are loosening them
11. Ride the unit near stairs, ledges or in any other potentially dangerous situation.
12. Ride the scooter over power cords, oxygen lines, hoses or any other material that could become entangle in the wheels or get caught in the drive mechanism of the scooter or while connected to equipment off of the scooter.
Persons having disabilities which limit their ability to remain erect without assistance, (stroke patients, severe muscular diseases, etc.) should carefully evaluate whether they should operate a scooter at all. If they decide, with the advise of their physician or another advisor, that they are capable of safely operating a scooter, they should consider the use of a bicycle helmet or pads when operating a scooter. These articles would help protect them should theythemselves in a hazardous situation where they could tip over because of their lack of balance.
DIFFERENT STYLES OF SCOOTERS HAVE DIFFERENT INCLINE CLIMBING ABILITIES, CAREFULLY STUDY THE CART TO SEE THE CORRECT SPECIFICATION FOR YOUR UNIT. DO NOT EXCEED THE SPECIFICATIONS OF THE SCOOTER STYLE YOU PURCHASED!

Leisure-Lift PaceSaver Espree Electric 3-Wheel Scooter: GETTING ON AND OFF THE PACESAVER
THE FOLLOWING IS A RECOMMENDED METHOD FOR GETTING ON YOUR PACESAVER.
1. The scooter should be stopped on a flat, level surface with the key in the OFF position.
2. Rotate the unlocked seat assembly to one side & re-lock.
3. Position yourself squarely in front of the seat and lower yourself into the seat using the armrests if necessary.
4. Unlock the seat and rotate toward the front of the scooter. Lock the seat in position by pushing down on the seat lock lever firmly. The seat will not move when locked correctly. The tiller should be locked down firmly in the proper riding position while driving to avoid shoulder fatigue. (never use the tiller as a support while getting on and off the scooter.)
5. When seated comfortably, you can drive the PaceSaver.
THE METHOD FOR GETTING OFF IS THE REVERSE PROCEDURE.
1. Turn the key switch OFF when stopped.
2. Unlock the seat lock and rotate the seat to one side, then re-lock it.
3. Stand up.
WARNING: Keep the key in the OFF position at all times when stopped or when getting on or off the scooter. Sudden accidental movement of the scooter will be avoided with the key in the OFF position.
Tipping can occur if you get on the PaceSaver in a manner other than recommended. Tipping can be avoided by keeping your weight away from the outer edges until seated. If you step into the scooter, step near the center of the floorpan, not near the edge.
Tipping can also occur if you turn the steering tiller sharply while traveling at or near full throttle.
Leisure-Lift PaceSaver Espree Electric 3-Wheel Scooter: OPERATING
All controls for PaceSaver operation are located on the tiller mounted panel. Become familiar with all controls with the key in the OFF position. Each is described in the following section:
CONTROL CONSOLE
1. ON AND OFF KEY SWITCH. Turning the key to the ON position turns the power on. In this position, the key cannot be removed. Turning to the OFF position turns the power off. The key should always be in the OFF position when you are not driving, or when getting off the scooter. The key can only be removed when in the OFF position.
SAFETY- The key switch can also be used as a master switch for the scooter's braking system. In the improbable event of the scooter should fail in stop or return to the off position, turning the key switch to the off position automatically and immediately causes the brake to engage and the scooter to come to an abrupt halt. Use great care in this situation to avoid an accident!
NOTE: The battery indicator will tell you if power is applied. The indicator only works when the key is switched ON and all battery connections are made.
Your scooter is equipped with a battery saver circuit. It will shut off the controller after 20 minutes of non-use (even with your key "ON"). The system is reset by turning the key "OFF" and back "ON" again.
2. SPEED SETTING KNOB. This knob, located left of the
key switch, sets the scooters top speed with no loss of power, It ranges
from 0 (tur
NOTE: The battery indicator will tell you if power
is applied. The indicator only works when the key is switched ON and all
battery connections are made.
Your scooter is equipped with a battery saver circuit.
It will shut off the controller after 20 minutes of non-use (even with your
key "ON"). The system is reset by turning the key "OFF" and back "ON"
again.
2. SPEED SETTING KNOB. This knob, located left of the
key switch, sets the scooters top speed with no loss of power, It ranges
from 0 (turtle) to 10 (rabbit). A low setting of 0-turtle to the mid point
(5) should be used indoors or in tight areas where speed is not required.
A higher setting of mid point (5) to rabbit (10) can be used outdoors and
in open areas where higher speeds are manageable. PLEASE NOTE: This controller
has a power compensation feature which allows you to leave the dial set lower
on a ramp or an incline and still maintain sufficient power.
3. BATTERY INDICATOR. This indicated the charge condition
of the batteries while you are driving. The batteries are in a good charge
condition if the needle is in the green area while you are driving. The needle
in the red area while driving corresponds to a low charge, or a deep cycle
condition. It is possible to drive the scooter with the batteries in a deep
cycle charge condition, buy you may become stranded. If, while you are driving,
the indicator falls into the red area, charge the batteries as soon as possible.
Charging will bring deep cycle condition batteries up to full charge.
4. HORN. The white button on the front of the control
panel is the horn button. Simply pressing it sounds the horn.
5. THROTTLE LEVER. The black lever under the control
panel is the throttle lever (Push Slowly). Pushing the lever with your thumb
in the direction of the arrows on the control faceplate make the scooter
go forward or backward accordingly. Pushing the lever in slightly will make
the scooter begin to move. The further you depress the lever, the faster
the scooter moves. The top speed set by the SPEED knob is reached by fully
depressing the throttle lever. Completely releasing the lever will stop power
to the motor, activate the brakes, and you will come to a complete stop.
PLEASE NOTE: Should the throttle/brake control system
not stop the unit, turning the key switch off will engage all brakes and
stop the unit immediately. This backup system should only be used in the
unlikely event that the primary brake control is disabled, as the quick stop
could CAUSE YOU TO SLIDE OFF THE SCOOTER.
6. TILLER ADJUSTMENT. Your Espree is equipped with
a "Personal Touch" tiller. The tiller has a series of four holes that a locking
pin engage to position the tiller. The tiller can be pivoted once you have
lifted the release lever located just below the throttle. The tiller also
includes a unique (Patent Pending) angle adjustment system that allows you
to raise or lower the hole pattern and "lock" it at a comfortable angle that
minimizes shoulder fatigue. The tiller can also be adjusted in such a manor
that allows it to "float" at each hole position.
"LOCKED HOLE PATTERN" adjustment instructions (See
drawing). The following instructions allow you to "customize" the tiller
angle when it is in the locked position. This allows for a move comfortable
ride as your arms can remain in the most comfortable position possible.
TO RAISE HOLE PATTERN:
1. Turn the front adjusting screw counterclockwise
up to 4 turns.
2. Turn the back adjusting screw clockwise until snug
(approximately the same number of turns you moved the front screw).
TO LOWER HOLE PATTERN:
1. Turn the back adjusting screw counterclockwise up
to 4 turns.
2. Turn the front adjusting screw clockwise until snug
(approximately the same number of turns you moved the front screw.)
NOTE: The front adjusting screw can be most easily
reached with the tiller folded in a down position and the back tiller adjusting
screw can most easily reached with the tiller in an upright position (see
illustration).
"FLOATING HOLE PATTERN" adjustment instruction
For those of you who prefer the comfort and convenience
of a "floating" tiller system use the following procedure.
1. Back out one or both of the adjusting screws to
the extend that you are satisfied with allowing the swivel head to free float
several degrees (see illustration.
2. Loosen the side pressure adjusting nut one or two
turns if you want the tiller to float more easily (see instructions).
3. Tighten the side pressure adjusting nut one or two
turns if you want the tiller to float less easily (see illustrations)
Leisure-Lift PaceSaver Espree Electric 3-Wheel Scooter:
YOUR FIRST RIDE
1. Make sure the area is flat, open and free of
obstacles.
2. Make sure the seat is locked.
3. Turn the SPEED setting knob to zero ( 0-turtle)
4. Turn the key switch to ON.
5. Push the throttle lever on the "F" side ("F" for
Forward) with your thumb to go forward.
6. SLOWLY rotate the SPEED setting knob up from the
turtle position. Rotate the knob unit the desired top speed is reached.
7. Release the throttle lever to come to a stop. Take
not of how the braking feels. The clicking you might hear upon starting,
and shortly after releasing the throttle lever is the Posi-Lock Electric
Brake disengaging and engaging.
8. Push the throttle lever on the "R" side ("R" for
Reverse) with your thumb to go backward. There is a sixty percent (60%) reduction
in speed in the reverse direction WITHOUT any change in the SPEED setting
knob. Always make sure the area is clear behind you before backing up.
9. Remember to turn the key OFF when not driving, or
getting on or off the scooter.
WARNING: The PaceSaver is designed for high maneuverability
but use caution when encountering obstacles. Failure to drive cautiously
can result in tipping and/or collisions which may cause physical harm. When
approaching an obstacle, keep your speed at a minimum and maintain a safe
distance from the object. Avoid all small objects on the ground. The scooter's
ground clearance may be less than the size of the object. Running over an
object or into a depression could cause overturning, or damage to the scooter.
NEVER ride the unit near platforms, stairs, ledges, curbs or in any other
potentially dangerous situation as severe injury can occur.

Leisure-Lift PaceSaver Espree Electric 3-Wheel
Scooter: BRAKING SYSTEM
The PaceSaver;s brake system allows for smooth start
up and safe braking without undue jerking. There are three (3) separate modes
to the braking system: Regenerative, Dynamic, and Posi-Lock Electric Braking.
All braking occurs automatically during scooter operation. Each type of braking
is described in the following.
1. Regenerative Braking is activated while driving
the PaceSaver down an incline. When the scooter picks up speed going down
the incline, the motor generates electricity. This electricity is channeled
back through the PaceSaver's electronic control circuits to recharge the
batteries. This action keeps the scooter from picking up excess speed and
provides for smooth speed control.
2. Dynamic Braking is activated WITHOUT delay when
all power is stopped to the motor by releasing the throttle lever, as when
coming to a complete stop. This braking works until the Posi-Lock Electric
brake is activated.
3. Posi-Lock Electric Braking Disk is activated with
delay when all power is stopped to the motor. This electric brake has a short
delay and ultimately holds the PaceSaver at a complete stop. The scooter
cannot be moved when t his brake is activated. Dynamic Braking works in
conjunction with Posi-Lock Electric Braking to bring you to a gradual and
complete stop.

Scooter: BRAKE DISENGAGE MECHANISM
PaceSaver Espree's are equipped with two Brake Disengage
Systems. These systems allow the scooter to be moved in the event the batteries
are run low, or there is a malfunction. Please read the instructions so you
may identify the proper disengage system to use for your particular
needs.
CAUTIONS: DO NOT ride the PaceSaver with the Brake
Disengage Mechanisms activated since there is a strong possibility an accident
with injuries will occur. Should you experience any type of brake system
malfunction, DO NOT ride or sit on the scooter. Have the system repaired
immediately!
BREAK RELEASE SYSTEM
Espree features the latest technology in braking
systems.
PUSH-A-SWITCH electronic brake release with "push too
fast circuit" gives you tiller mounted fingertip control to release your
brake.
NEVER RIDE YOUR SCOOTER WITH THE BRAKE DISENGAGED.
When power is on and you want to move the scooter,
press the brake release switch on tiller back panel to the push position
(see diagram). Note the red on the side of the rocker switch when the brake
release is activated. For safety reasons, the key must be turned on, the
scooter stopped and throttle in the off position for brake release to function.
with brake release activated, the scooter can be pushed easily at a walking
pace. If the scooter gains speed a "Push-Too-Fast" circuit will automatically
slow the scooter to a walking speed. When finished moving the scooter, always
set the switch to the "Drive" position. Should you ever need to stop the
scooter quickly while using the electronic brake release switch, turn off
the key.
SECONDARY MANUAL BRAKE RELEASE SYSTEM is to be used
only when you do not have electrical power available to operate the
"PUSH-A-SWITCH" mounted on the tiller.
WARNING: Do not ride cart with the motor plug and brake
release lever disengaged as all brakes are bypassed and serious injury can
occur.
To push a scooter without electrical power:
1. Remove seat and rear cover.
2. Locate disc brake release lever at the end of the
motor and pull up.
3. The scooter will push easily at a walking pace.
If the scooter begins rolling too fast, a push-too-fast circuit will engage
IF THE MOTOR PLUG IS CONNECTED.
4. When finished moving the scooter, reengage the disc
brake by pushing down on the lever.
5. Reconnect the motor plug.
As an added safety feature the Espree mechanical brake
disengage is automatically reengaged when even power is applied to the motor.
This is to avoid driving the scooter with the brake disengaged. THIS DOES
NOT APPLY TO THE ESPREE ATLAS.
SHOULD THE BRAKE DISENGAGE ON A SCOOTER EVER APPEAR
TO WORK POORLY OR INCORRECTLY, STOP RIDING IMMEDIATELY AND CONTACT YOUR DEALER
FOR SERVICE.

PaceSaver's is available in two styles of arms, each
with their own arm adjustments. Both of these arms are designed to provide
support for your arms while seated on the scooter, and for some assistance
when getting on and off the scooter. THEY ARE NOT DESIGNED TO HOLD A PERSON'S
WEIGHT! Persons with no use of their legs, or no ability to transfer weight
to the floor should seek other means of assistance (slide board, helper,
etc.) when transferring in and out of the scooter. Arm failure will result
if excess weight is applied to the arm.

1. Lift the arm to the vertical position.
2. Loosen one of the two nuts that hold the adjustment
bolt in place.
3. Turn the top nut, turning it up or down, depending
on the needed adjustment, and test for the correct arm height.
4. When you have the correct angle, tighten the bottom
nut.
WIDTH ADJUSTABLE ARM ADJUSTMENTS
1. Loosen the black knobs at the lower rear of the
seat Rotate counter clockwise to loosen.
2. Slide the armrests in or out as needed.
3. Tighten the black knobs. Rotate clockwise to

Should you wish to remove the armrests, simply pull
them out when the knobs are loose. Remember to tighten the knobs to avoid
their loss. Arms are also adjustable in height.
The PaceSaver seat rotates 360 degrees. The seatlock
allows you to lock the seat in any position. Seatlock operation is as
follows.
1. Rotate the seat to the desired position.
2. Push the lever forward firmly until it is
down and the seat will not swivel.
3. When properly locked, the seat will not rotate while
you are riding the scooter (see warning).
4. To unlock, pull up on the lever. The seat will now
swivel freely. Take care when assembling the cart that the seat lock lever
is upright and all the way down on the seat post to avoid damage to the seat
lock mechanism and so that the seat slips on easily. Failure to do this WILL
damage the seatlock!
WARNING: A scooter's seatlock IS NOT designed to hold
the seat while you push off one side to assist yourself in standing! You
risk injury if the seat is used in the wrong way! Do not attempt to over
tighten the seat lock. If it does not hold under its intended use while you
are riding the scooter, see the section regarding adjustment later in this
manual, or contact your dealer immediately!
SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The seat assembly is height adjustable. The factory
places the seat in the next to the lowest possible position (owners of the
Espree Atlas should consult their Manual Addendum for special details).
1. Remove the seat assembly by unlocking the seat lock
and lifting the seat assembly straight up. Set aside.
2. Locate the seat height adjustment bolt and nut located
at the base of the chrome seat post (See figure 3).
3. Remove the bolt, nut, and small metal cones. Take
note of their position in order to correctly replace them.
4. The chrome seat post will now move up and down.
5. Position the chrome post to new desired
position.
6. Replace the metal cones, bolt, and nut in their
proper order. Tighten until all play is eliminated.
7. Replace the seat assembly and test the new
height.
It is recommended that the seat assembly be positioned
at the lowest comfortable seat height. PaceSaver stability will be improved
with a lower height.
DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY OF PACESAVER
The PaceSaver's Patented separation makes it easy to
assemble and disassemble. Complete disassembly can be accomplished in seconds
WITHOUT tools. The procedure is as follows.
1. Remove the key from the switch. It should already
be in the OFF position since it was placed there when you last got off the
scooter.
2. Unlock the seat lock, lift the seat assembly up
and remove. Lift off the rear cover also.
3. Disconnect each battery. Depress the tab on each
battery plug to unplug the cable.
4. Unfasten the battery hold down straps and remove
both batteries.
5. Disconnect the motor cable. Depress the tab on the
motor plug to unplug the cable.
6. Pull up on the L-shaped pull pin located just behind
the chrome seat post.
7. slide the front section away from the rear section.
Use caution since the sections will rock to the ground once they become
separated.
8. Lift the tiller release lever to allow the tiller
to pivot down to the floor pan.
The following is the procedure for assembling the
PaceSaver. With practice, this will become easier and easier.
1. Align the silver tongue of the rear section with
the square tube on the front section. Check that there are no cables caught
between the two sections. Both sections should be resting on the floor at
this point.
2. Begin to insert the tongue into the square tube
by pushing down on the rear of the rear section while lifting up on the L-shaped
pull pin located just behind the chrome seat post.
3. The two (20 sections will rock up and partially
slide together. Once the sections cannot be lifted any higher, slide them
together completely.
4. Push down on the L-shaped pull pin into the hole
just behind the seat post. Be certain pull pin is inserted completely to
its stop ring. It may be necessary to line the holes up before the pin can
be inserted.
5. Lift the tiller release lever and raise the
tiller.
6, Connect the large motor plug cables together. Align
the red dots on each connector so that they line up. Push the plug straight
in until the connectors click together.
7. Put the batteries in place and securely fasten them
down with the hold down straps.
8. Connect the battery cables. Align the red dots on
each connector so that they line up. Push the plug straight in until the
connectors click together.
9. Replace the rear cover. Make sure the velcro on
the cover attaches to the velcro on the rear frame support piece.
10. Place the seat assembly into the chrome seat post.

ELECTROPEDIC SINCE 1964
Charging the batteries is the most important part of
operating and maintaining your new scooter. Be sure you do it properly! It
is recommended that only a gel cell or sealed suspended lead-acid type deep
cycle battery be used on the Scooter. These batteries do not require water
and have no danger of spillage. They are also approved by the Federal Aviation
Administration for air travel.
Your scooters come equipped with the new PaceSaver
RANGEMASTER Built-in Onboard Battery Charger. "READ THIS MANUAL" IT CONTAINS
IMPORTANT SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION TO FEATURES OF THIS CHARGER: Carts equipped
with the RANGEMASTER, fully automatic battery charger, have a 24-volt/3.5
ampere Constant Current Charger. It is designed to operate from a 120-volt
AC/60 Hz line source and provides a constant charging output until the batteries
are fully charged. This results in a maximum charge in a minimum amount of
time. Conventional chargers have a declining output proportionate to the
charge rate of the batteries.
The RANGEMASTER is recommended for use with deep cycle,
gel or sealed lead acid batteries, and can be left "on charge" indefinitely
without harm to the batteries. Plus, the RANGEMASTER will operate from an
AC line source as low as 100-volts and as high as 126-volts (47-63 Hz). Circuit
protection is built into the device to protect the circuitry and reverse
polarity protection and a fuse located in the end of the RANGEMASTER
case.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: WARNING - Because you
will be connecting and disconnecting AC voltage to the cart, DO NOT do so
in the presence of moisture (i.e. rain, puddled water, snow, etc.). Electrical
shock hazard could be present. Observe caution and safety warnings.
1. Observe the caution on lead-acid batteries being
charged. Batteries can generate explosive gasses during operation. It is
for this reason that you must read and follow these safety precautions;
2. To reduce risk of battery explosion:
Never smoke or allow open flame or sparks around a
charging battery.
Never charge a frozen battery.
Use charger for charging lead acid-type or AGM batteries
only; it is not intended to charge dry cell batteries, or act as a power
source for low voltage circuits. Either of these conditions could harm the
charger or cause dangerous conditions to exist. This charger is recommended
for use with deep cycle-type batteries.
Study allsupplied with batteries. Study
battery precautions such as removing or not removing caps during charging,
as well as the recommended rate of charge.
The user is instructed to NOT use the charger with
a battery configuration not matching the output voltage rating of the
charger.
Do not operate the charger in closed area or restrict
ventilation around the charger in any way.
Do not disconnect the DC portion of the charger circuit
while the AC cord is still connected to the electrical outlet.
BASIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Do not expose the charger to rain, snow or other
moisture sources (i.e., sprinkler, car wash, etc.). When storing scooter,
keep inside a building.
2. Use of the charger in a manner not recommended by
the manufacturer may result in the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal
injury.
3. To reduce the possibility of damage to the AC cord
or the connector, disconnect the AC line cord by grasping the plug and not
the cord, when disconnecting from either the cart or the wall
receptacle.
4. Locate cord so that it will not be stepped on, tripped
over or subjected to the possibility of damage.
5. An extension cord is not recommended for use with
this equipment. Use of an improperly rated extension cord could result in
risk of fire or electrical shock. Should it be required to use an extension
cord, make certain that is is of 3-wire construction and has a wire size
of 16-gage, and the cord must be in good electrical condition.
6. Do not operate this charger with damaged AC cord
or receptacle. If they are damaged, replace them immediately.
7. Do not disassemble the charger. If there is a perceived
problem with the equipment, refer to the servicing section of this manual
or refer to a qualified technician for service. Incorrect assembly of the
charger could result in a risk of electrical shock or fire.
8. Do not operate the charger if it has received an
impact of a severity that may render it inoperative; take it to a service
technician.
9. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, unplug the
charger from electrical outlet before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning.
BEFORE CHARGING:
1. Verify that battery terminals are clean and that
all charger connections are secure and in good condition.
2. If required, check fluid level of batteries and
add distilled water to designated level, when required by manufacturer. A
"topped off" battery helps purge gasses from cells. Do not overfill. Batteries
without caps may not require the addition of fluid. Follow battery manufacturer's
recharging instructions.
GROUNDING AND AC POWER CONNECTION:
RANGEMASTER must be plugged into a grounded electrical
outlet. The unit is provided with an electrical cord which contains a conductor
for grounding. The charger cord must be plugged into an AC outlet that is
properly installed, and is grounded in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and all local electrical codes and ordinances.
CAUTION - Failure to plug the charger into a grounded
receptacle could cause a condition allowing an electrical shock hazard to
be present while charging.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock.
CAUTION - Never alter the AC cord or plug provided
with this equipment. If it does not fit the outlet, have a properly grounded
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
A TEMPORARY AC ADAPTER may be used to connect the plug
provided with this charger to a two-pole receptacle if a properly grounded
receptacle is not available. The temporary adapter should only be used until
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The
green colored tab on the adapter MUST be connected to a permanent ground
such as a properly grounded outlet box.
THE USE OF TEMPORARY ADAPTERS IS ILLEGAL IN CANADA
AND SHOULD NOT BE USED. HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN INSTALL A GROUNDED OUTLET
BEFORE USING THIS CHARGER.
HOW TO USE THIS CHARGER: With the scooter completely
assembled:
1. Connect the aC power cord to the receptacle located
on the scooter, and then to a properly grounded AC outlet. (refer to grounding
instructions). As a safety feature, the cart will not operate when the charger
cord is plugged into the wall outlet and the charger is operating.
CAUTION - Do not use connectors or cords that are cracked,
corroded or do not make adequate electrical contact. Overheating and possible
property damage may result if defective connectors are used.
2. The ampere meter located on the scooter will indicate
that the charger is giving service to the batteries.
Because this is an automatic charger, the meter will
indicate a charge rate of approximately 4-amperes when all is properly connected.
This will continue at a steady rate until the batteries are approximately
90% charged, at which time the meter indication will drop to less than 1
ampere. When the batteries are fully charged, the meter indication will drop
to zero and remain there. The charger will occasionally "wake up" when battery
decay has fallen to below the cut-off voltage, and the charger will provide
additional charge to "top off" the batteries. It is recommended that the
RANGEMASTER not be connected to liquid electrolyte, lead acid batteries (car
batteries).
3.After charging, remove the wall cord, first from
the wall, then from the cart, and store it on the cart for future use.
CAUTION - Be certain the wall cord is disconnected
from the electrical outlet before moving the cart. Moving the cart without
disconnecting the wall cord could result in damage to the cart, the wall
outlet or create a shock hazard condition.
WARNING - Because you will be connecting and disconnecting
AC to the cart, be cautious of doing so in the presence of water (i.e., rain
or puddled water). Electrical shock hazard could be present. Observe caution
and safety warnings.
WARNING - LEAD ACID BATTERIES GENERATE GASSES WHICH
CAN BE EXPLOSIVE. AVOID SMOKING, SPARKS OR OPEN FLAMES AROUND CHARGING BATTERIES.
cHARGE IN AREAS WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
WARNING - Charges can ignite flammable materials and
gasses. Do not use near fuels, grain dust, solvents, thinners or other flammable
materials. Charge in area with adequate ventilation.
CHARGING NOTES:
REGULAR USE OF YOUR CART WILL REQUIRE REGULAR CHARGING.
IT IS A COMMON MISCONCEPTION THAT BATTERIES NEED TO BE RUN INTO DEEP DISCHARGE
BEFORE RECHARGING. THIS IS NOT TRUE AND CAN LEAD TO DAMAGE OF THE BATTERIES
IF THE ARE DISCHARGED TOO DEEPLY BEFORE RECHARGE. LIKEWISE, IF BATTERIES
ARE STORED OR USED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME WITHOUT RECHARGE, THIS MAY RESULT
IN PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE BATTERIES RESULTING IN UNRELIABLE OPERATION AND
SHORTENED BATTERY LIFE. MAXIMUM DRIVING RANGE OF YOUR SCOOTER CAN BE OBTAINED
IF THE BATTERIES ARE FULLY CHARGED PRIOR TO A LENGTHY TRIP. BECAUSE THE
RANGEMASTER IS A FULLY AUTOMATIC CHARGER, IN CAN BE "ON CHARGE" FOR AN INDEFINITE
PERIOD OF TIME WITHOUT HARM TO THE BATTERIES.
FUSE:
The RANGEMASTER charger is provided with an external
replaceable fuse located on the end of the charger housing. The charger is
located under the rear cover of the scooter, and on some equipment, you may
need to remove the rear section from the cart and turn it upside down to
replace the fuse. Replace the fuse with one of an identical rating and type.
Use of a fuse of a different rating could result in a condition which could
cause electrical shock potential or condition resulting in fire.
SERVICE/TROUBLESHOOTING:
Should the RANGEMASTER charger fail to perform:
1. First, check that all connections are properly made
for a fully assembled scooter. On some equipment, the charger lines go through
the motor plug, so if the motor plug is disconnected for some reason, then
the charger will not function. Likewise, if the batteries are not connected,
they will not receive a charge, and the meter will not give an
indication.
2. Check that the wall outlet has power to it. The
outlet may be on a switch and will not function if not switched on.
3. If all connections are properly made and the unit
is connected to a working outlet, check the fuse in the charger (see Fuse
section).
If these steps fail to produce satisfactory results,
please refer to an authorized service center to have the system fully
analyzed.

ELECTROPEDIC SINCE 1964
1. The battery indicator in the tiller control panel
indicates the charge condition of the batteries while you are driving. The
indicator will not indicate the "true condition" while sitting still. The
green area corresponds to a good charge. The red area corresponds to a low
charge, or a deep cycle condition. It is possible to drive the scooter with
the batteries in a deep cycle charge condition, but once they drop below
a certain level of power they will fail and you will be stranded. If, while
you are driving, the indicator falls into the red area, charge the batteries
as soon as possible. Charging will bring deep cycle condition batteries up
to a full charge. You will not see maximum battery life if the batteries
are routinely run to the deep cycle condition.
2. It is best to charge the batteries before they reach
the deep cycle condition. Short change intervals to keep a battery "topped
off" are better than long intervals for bringing a battery up from deep cycle.
The charger can be left on overnight or for several days at a time, but once
the batteries are fully charged, it is best to unplug the charger.
3. Keep the batteries away from heat. Areas with excessive
sunshine or excessive heat will cause a faster loss of charge in the batteries.
Charging the batteries longer than necessary will also introduce heat into
them. Heat will cause the batteries to lose their charge and also shorten
their life.
4. Storage of batteries is very important to their
life span. The very best way to maximize battery life is to store them in
a fully charged condition in a cool place (NOT DIRECTLY ON A CONCRETE FLOOR).
Then, periodically charge EVERY ONE TO TWO MONTH to keep the batteries in
this fully charged condition. Batteries should never be subjected to freezing
temperatures. Undercharge batteries can be quickly ruined in freezing
conditions.
5. Loose connections can keep the batteries from delivering
their power. Visually, check the battery wire connections in the battery
box periodically for looseness. Always connect the red wire to the positive
(+) battery terminal. Connect the black wire to the negative (-) battery
terminal.
WARNING: DO NOT USE A NON SEALED LIQUID LEAD ACID DEEP
CYCLE BATTERY. Spillage or battery acid will cause severe burns, and will
corrode metal components of the PaceSaver.

STORAGE
SHORT TERM AND OVERNIGHT STORAGE: When ending PaceSaver
use for the day, if the batteries do not need charging, simply turn the key
OFF and remove it. The next morning, put the key in, get in, lock the seat,
turn key ON and you are ready to go again.
LONG TERM STORAGE: When the PaceSaver will not be used
for an extended period of time, put it in storage will fully charged batteries.
Storage of batteries is very important to their life span. The very best
way to maximize battery life is to store them in a fully charged condition
in a cool place. Then periodically (every 1-2 months), charge to keep the
batteries in this fully charged condition ("Topped Off"). Do not store in
freezing temperatures. Batteries should not be subjected to freezing temperatures
longer than necessary. Undercharged batteries can be ruined in just a few
hours in freezing conditions.

PACESAVER ESPREE PREMIER BY LEISURE-LIFT:
MAINTAINING THE PACESAVER
In general, The PaceSaver is very easy to maintain.
Consult your dealer if any repairs, adjustments, or damaged part replacements
are needed.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE:
DAILY: Charge the batteries, if required, as described
in the "Charging the PaceSaver Batteries" section of this manual.
WEEKLY: Check the tire pressure for proper inflation
(see the proper specifications for the scooter you own). Clean the PaceSaver
using a damp cloth with a mild soap. Use a minimal amount of water. Do not
allow electrical components to get wet. Wipe dry.
MONTHLY: Look the PaceSaver over in general making
sure all the bolts and nuts are still tight. Inspect the battery and motor
connections for wear, damage, and that proper connections are made. SEE
LUBRICATION FOR NON-PREMIER SCOOTERS.
TWICE A YEAR: Inspect all wheels for looseness and
tire wear. Clean the upholstery as needed.
YEARLY: Thoroughly examine your scooter to look for
undetected wear and other potential problems and have problems repaired
immediately. The expense involved is always less than repair bills caused
by a lack of proper maintenance. In the same way a car would not last without
service, a scooter should be maintained regularly.
AND REMEMBER! If you ever notice any part of your paceSaver
scooter working in an improper or unsafe manner, stop riding it immediately
and contact your dealer to arrange repairs. Do not use your scooter if there
is a possibility it is not safe!
LUBRICATION: (see section for non-Premier's)
SEAT LOCK:
The seat lock usually requires no adjustment, and will
provide years of trouble free service. However, as time passes and surfaces
begin to wear, you may need to remove one of the spacer washers (see exploded
view) in order to tighten up the tolerances. To do this you need not remove
the seatlock from the seat post. First turn the seat upside down on a level
surface and remove one of the two 1/4"-20 Bolts that hold the seatlock together.
Then remove a washer that lies between the two halves of the seatlock (this
may leave one side with more washers than the other, that's OK). Be sure
to reassemble the seatlock in exactly the same way it was disassembled and
with all components in the proper place. If the seat lock works properly
but still does not securely tighten the seat, another washer may be removed
(this time from the opposite side). If it still operates incorrectly, contact
your dealer immediately.
TIRES:
The recommended pressure for the tires is listed below.
MAKE SURE that you are using the specifications for the style PaceSaver that
you own. Be careful not to overinflate. Properly inflated tires aid in the
PaceSaver's efficiency. Under-inflated tires require more energy to roll,
thus decreasing scooter performance. Under-inflated tires also affect the
PaceSaver stability. A "soft" tire on one side, for example, can lead to
overturning during cornering (under certain circumstances).
ALL THREE WHEELED SCOOTERS: 50 PSI Front &
Rear
WARNING: DO NOT Disassemble any wheel at any time for
repairs while still inflated as the pressure may blow wheel rims apart while
you are loosening them and serious injury may result. Completely deflate
the tire first.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
If the PaceSaver will not move, check the
following:
1. Turn the key switch OFF and then back ON.
2. There is a visible circuit breaker. It is located
on the gray controller housing near the chrome seat post (see drawing). You
will not see any white on the button while it is switched in the correct
operating position. Also check to see that all of the wires are securely
attached to the box.
3. Check the motor plug for proper connection.
4. Check the battery plug for proper connections.
5. Check the BATTERY indicator for discharged
batteries.
6. Turn the key switch OFF and then back ON a second
time.
7. If the scooter still will not move, check the LED
status indicator and the diagnostic section of this manual or contact your
dealer.
DIAGNOSTIC
Leisure Lift products are known for excellent reliability
and service. To further enhance this capability, your Espree is equipped
with a state of the art diagnostic system. While the system does indicate
basic areas the user can check, it's primary purpose is to help your dealer
identify the problem to get your scooter repaired as quickly as
possible.
When the key is on the system detects a problem, the
scooter will not run or will shut down. The status indicator light will flash
continuously for about five (5) seconds. It will then proceed to flash a
2 part code.
Example: Two dots Short pause Three dots = 2,3
If the light continues to flash after following the
procedures in the LED Diagnostic Code chart, do not ride the scooter. Notify
your dealer for repair.
LED DIAGNOSTIC CODES

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND POSSIBLE ANSWERS
WHY HAS THERE BEEN A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER?
1. Undercharged batteries. Check the BATTERY indicator.
The BATTERY indicator indicates the charge condition of the batteries while
you are driving. The indicator will not indicate the "true condition" while
sitting still. The green area corresponds to a good charge. The red area
corresponds to a low charge, or a deep cycle condition. It is possible to
drive the scooter with the batteries in a deep cycle charge condition, but
once they drop below a certain level of power, they will fail and you will
be stranded. If, while you are driving, the indicator falls into the red
area, charge the batteries as soon as possible. Charging will bring deep
cycle condition batteries up to full charge. You will not receive maximum
battery life it the batteries are routinely run to the deep cycle
condition.
2. The Posi-Lock Brake may not be releasing. This
malfunction means the motor must over power the brake to move, which requires
a great deal of power. A rubbing sound can be heard during this type of
malfunction.
3. Under-inflated tires. Check for proper inflation
(check the specifications for your particular scooter).
4. You may have adjusted the belt and/or chain too
tightly FOR NON PREMIER-ESPREE SCOOTERS. Refer to Chain and Belt Adjustment
section of this manual for proper adjustments. Mis-adjustments cause severe
damage.
5. Excessive weight on the cart. Remember the most
PaceSaver's takes a maximum of 300 lbs. (All units except the Espree Atlas,
check the specifications in front of this manual).
6. There may be other motor or driving mechanism
malfunctions. Consult with your dealer.
WILL LEAVING THE BATTERIES FOR A LONG TIME DAMAGE
THEM?
Yes. Storage of batteries is very important to their
life span. The very best way to maximize battery life is to store them in
a fully charged condition in a cool place. Then periodically (every 1-2 months!)
charge to keep the batteries in the full charge condition. Do not store in
cold or freezing temperatures. Batteries should never be subjected to freezing
temperatures. Undercharged batteries can be ruined quickly in freezing
conditions.
CAN A REGULAR LIQUID LEAD-ACID BATTERY BE USED, LIKE
IN A CAR?
No. A DEEP CYCLE battery must be used. A car battery
is not deep cycle. Deep cycle batteries (boat type batteries) are available
in both suspended liquid lead-acid and gel cell lead-acid. Either type can
be used. It is recommended that a gel cell or a sealed lead-acid type battery
be used on the PaceSaver. These batteries are maintenance free and have no
danger of spillage. They are also approved by the Federal Aviation Administration
for air travel. DO NOT USE a conventional liquid lead-acid deep cycle battery.
Spillage of the battery acid can cause severe burns and will damage may
components of your PaceSaver. The charger which came with the PaceSaver is
designed specifically to charge our type of batteries.
WHY WILL MY PACESAVER NOT CLIMB AN INCLINE?
1. Excessive weight on the scooter for the grade of
the incline. Refer to the Ramp Incline Chart in this Owner's Manual.
2. Batteries not fully charged, or are bad. Charge
them and have them tested.
3. Under-inflated tires.
4. Attempting to go up the incline in reverse. Remember,
there is a sixty percent (60%) reduction in speed when moving in the reverse
direction.
