every harm or hazard. Therefore users must always use
their own intuition and common sense to help avoid injury
or damage when operating the Zinger.
The WARNING symbol shown above appears throughout
this Owner’s Manual followed by important warning
information.Every Warning in this manual indicates a
potentially hazardous situation, which if not understood
and followed could result in severe injury or even death.
For this reason, all users must read this entire manual

Operating Surfaces and Conditions
Ramps and Hills (Grades)
Descending grades reduces the steering and braking
ability of the Zinger. Descend all grades slowly (below 3
MPH) keeping both brakes applied. Never operate on
grades of more than 10°. When possible, avoid grades
over 5° (10 inches per 10 feet)
Always take hills and ramps straight on. Do not drive
sideways to the direction of the ramp or angle across a
ramp. Never roll backwards on any grade.
Do not attempt ANY grade in wet conditions. 
CLIMBING The Zinger is capable of climbing up to a 10°
incline, but whenever possible you should avoid ramps
steeper than 5° (10 inches vertical change per 10 feet
distance). As a general reference ADA compliant wheelchair
ramps are 5º or less.
Plan to take hills on in a straight line. Before entering a hill,
switch to High speed range. The Zinger's Low and Medium
speed range limit voltage to the motor. To climb a hill you
may need full voltage so select High.
When entering an abrupt ramp, the anti-tip wheels may
touch ground, lifting the driving wheels and stopping your
Zinger. In this case, gain speed before the lip of the ramp so
that your momentum carries you over the lip. 
DESCENDING
When descending hills, increase and
decrease braking pressure to keep your direction straight
and your speed below 3 MPH (slow walking pace). By use
of the brakes, never let the Zinger build speed greater than
6 MPH on descent.
DRIVING ON GRADES Avoid making turns on grades. If
there is a sharp turn on a hill, find an alternate route or walk
the Zinger. If you are uncertain about the terrain, get up and
walk your Zinger by pushing on the Seat Back Bar.
If you must drive on a non-level surface, like the side of a
crowned path or slanted sidewalk, your Zinger will tend to
steer toward the low side requiring you to drag the opposite
brake to maintain your course. Avoid these non-level
surfaces when possible.
Do not stop on a sidewalk ramp. Instead stop on the level
ground before the ramp. Avoid unnecessary stopping or
turning on any non-level surface. If you must exit the Zinger
on a grade, set both parking brakes, turn the Power to Off
(Pg.17), exit the seat and push the Zinger past the grade.
The Zinger provides light resistance to rolling backwards
when the motor is offbut always set the parking brakes
before exiting. See Parking Brakes Pg.14.
8
WARNING
!

Wet Conditions
The Zinger operates best in dry conditions on level
pavement. If wet conditions are unavoidable, minimize your
route, select Medium speed range, and apply extra force on
the levers. When safe, occasionally test your ability to stop
and turn. If it seems questionable, get offand push the
Zinger.
Wet conditions will compromise the Zinger's ability to
brake, turn, and accelerate.
Do not operate on hills, ramps or grass when wet.
Grass and Rough Terrain
While dry, short mowed grass is an acceptable surface to
operate your Zinger, performance will feel very different.
Select High speed range. You will need to use more force
on the levers because your Zinger is doing more work to
move you. Do not operate the Zinger on wet grass or
unpaved hills.
The Zinger is not intended for rough terrain. If you are
uncertain about the conditions that you might encounter
along your route, select an alternate route or other form of
transportation.
Do not drive the Zinger close to a sidewalk edge, street
curb, stairs, or drop offof any kind.
Do not attempt to cross over curbs or gaps greater than
two inches.
Do not operate on saturated ground, rocky or rooted
surfaces, loose gravel, sand, oil, snow or ice, playground
chips or any other suspiciously unfavorable condition.
Always use sidewalks and offi
cial pedestrian crossings.
When seated in the Zinger, you sit very low so that cars
might not see or expect you. Always use extra caution at
crossings or whenever you are exposed to traffi
c. Only
cross at official pedestrian crossings. Never drive the Zinger
on a roadway, roadside, or busy parking lot.
The Zinger steers by braking one of the rear wheels while
driving the other. The front wheels are casters which ideally
do not influence the direction of the Zinger. However if the
front wheels encounter angled ground, a rut, or the like,
they will influence the Zinger to steer in a new direction. For
this reason always keep both hands on the Control Levers
and be prepared to compensate for such irregularities. If a
front wheel goes over a large edge like a curb, stop
immediately. Exit the Zinger and bring it back onto level
ground. 
