1. Safety instructions
1.1 General:


1.1.1 Technicians who are servicing the scooter should be authorized to service
the scooter.
1.1.2 Technicians who are servicing the scooter should be aware and follow all
safety instructions within the User Manual.
1.1.3 Technician should follow general safety instruction like using gloves, safety
glasses when needed.
1.1.4 The scooter weight with batteries is about 100 kg even lifting 1 wheel is about
30 kg. Always use other people help or an appropriate lifting device.
1.1.5 When lifting always use your legs and not your back.
1.1.6 The battery weight is about 14 kg. The power unit weight is about 15 kg. The
seat weight is about 20kg.
1.1.7 Never do any change in the product before consulting the manufacturer
engineering. Remember the products are approve as they are, any change
remove the manufacturer responsibility for the safety of the product.
1.2 Drive :
1.2.1 Technicians who are driving the scooter should be aware and follow all safety
instructions within the User Manual.
1.3 Mechanic :
1.3.1 It is possible that a technician will need to operate the scooter when he is
standing on the side, working on different assemblies.
1.3.2 When no electric power and operation needed, always Stop the power by
Switch OFF and disconnecting the battery terminals.
1.3.3 Never put any part of your body under the scooter parts.
1.3.4 If necessary, first place a wood block under, to make sure no injure will
happen.
1.3.5 Use standard tools. Use them according to their safety instructions .
1.4 Electric :
1.4.1 If necessary to operate the scooter when you are not seating on it. In such
cases you should be aware to the parts that can move by power –Power unit
shafts and wheels.
1.4.2 Never put your hands close to a part that is moving or turning. Be aware that
your cloth will not be trapped into one of the moving parts.
1.4.3 Batteries contain a large electric energy inside. This energy can cause
sparks and heat metals when short circuiting.
1.4.4 When working on the battery terminals, make sure no to short circuit between
any 2 terminals. This can cause strong spars and make the tools very hot.
1.4.5 When working on the batteries, use protecting gloves and safety glasses.
1.4.6 Battery contains acid. Never open any of the battery case. If you see any
liquid or Gel aside, beware of it. It might be Acid.


7. Controller Programming / Setup
If the user cannot find a position on the half speed limit
switch control that suits him, the controller can be
programmed to meet his needs. The controller can be
programmed in two ways –with an SP1 Programmer or
specialist PC software and interface cable.
The SP1 is a small hand-held unit which can be plugged into
your controller to alter the program or into the charger
socket .
The PC Programmer is a piece of PC software and an
interface cable. When the software is installed onto a PC, it
can then be connected to the controller by using the special
interface cable. The controller can then be programmed
using a windows type environment
The programming tools may be included with your scooter. If
they are not, the scooter distributor or service agent or
scooter manufacturer will are able to program the controller.
If you have a programmer, read the user guide before you
use it.
If you re-program your controller, make sure that you
observe any restrictions given in your scooter user manual.
Note any changes you make for future reference.
Programming should only be conducted by healthcare
professionals with in-depth knowledge of PGDT
electronic controllers. Incorrect programming could
result in an unsafe set-up of a scooter for a user. PGDT
accept no liability for losses of any kind if the
programming of the controller is altered from factory
pre-set values.


7.1Controller Programming with hand programmer SP1 :
The list of parameters fit to power-units 950W-12km/h,10km/h and 15km/h.
The parameters refer to "S-Drive 120" controller with hand programmer "SP1"
To program through the "Charge Socket" use the adaptor.
Programmer SP1

values will then appear in the display window.
4. With the help of the arrows you can change the values.
5. After changing the value push enter the scooter will beep –turn key switch off
and then on.
6. The programmer will display the next parameter. To make further changes
repeat step # 5
7. Press enter again to return to the parameter menu
8. When you get to the "Engineer Menu" press enter to get to the sub-menu

Turn the Seat by using the lifting Lever so that the Lever will point 45º Right
or Left. The Seat can be removed only at this position.
Remove the Seat (7): Hold the Seat in your two hands –one hand on the
backrest and a second hand at the front lower part of the seat and lift the seat
up from its pivot.
Warning! The seat weight is 20 Kg (44lbs).
Keep lifting with your Knees/legs and not loading your Back. Release Battery
Cover (2) securing screws (2.6).
Lift the Battery Cover (2) until it is released from the Seat Pivot .
Replacing the
Batteries
Cover(2)
The replacement of the Cover is done in reverse order; MAKE SURE that the
Cover (2) fits onto it’s place. Secure with the 4 screws (2.6).
Batteries
Batteries weight each is ~14 Kg (~30 lbs) and over.
Lift each battery only with the appropriate handle. Keep lifting with your
Knees/legs and not loading your Back.
Tires
Correct air pressure in the tires is essential for optimal steering and stability of
the Breeze C. Check air pressure every two weeks.
Inflate to the proper air pressure: 25 ±2 psi. Breeze 4W front tires: 25±2 psi.
Golf wheels tires: 25±2 psi.
Cleaning
Use only a damp cloth and mild detergent. Never use a hose for cleaning.
This may severely damage the power and electronic components.

10. Control and Electronics system fault troubleshooting
10.1 General control system and Front Board Troubleshoots
The front board is the center of all peripheral functions of the scooter: Lights , Horn ,
Information goes to the LEDS on the display .
Elimination troubleshoots:
The Front Board wiring connections are all quick connectors.
If you suspect the Front Board to be faulted we recommend as a quickest way to find if the
Front Board is faulty, Doing by elimination –Just replace temporarily the Front Board with
another working one and thus make sure if the problem is within the Front Board or
somewhere else.
Check all connection of the Front Board, following the wiring diagram that can be found at the
end chapter of this maintenance manual.
Check main and Charge fuse, located under the seat.
Also always check related function switch , as an example Light does not work , first check the
light switch for continuity ,when it is in ON position. Use the wiring diagram to figure the proper
terminals to check each function switch terminals.

10.2Controller Troubleshoots
The controller is the center of all driving functions of the Breeze S: Speed control ,
acceleration , deceleration , EMB (Electro Magnetic Brake used as parking brake) , Reverse
drive , Speed limiting etc. . But still the functions of the controller are all connected to all the
wiring, connectors and as well the Front board, power units and batteries.
If any driving misbehave occur
Elimination troubleshoots:
The controller wiring connections are all quick connectors.
If you suspect the controller to be faulted we recommend as a quickest and way to find if the
controller is faulty, Doing it by elimination –Just replace temporarily the controller with
another working one and thus make sure if the problem is within the controller or somewhere
else.
Note: Make sure the controller have the rights parameters setup.
Check all connection of the controller, following the wiring diagram that can be found within
this maintenance manual.

10.3 The fault code from the SP1 Programmer :
(More codes you can see on the hand programming SP1).
When the fault exists, connect the SP1 programmer's connector directly to the controller
SDRIVE or to the charging socket, using a special wiring adaptor.
The fault will be displaed on the SP1 programmer display.
