Hello? I have the 3 wheeled Dragon ( Draken) model, it’s great.
But I have a problem ! the electro magnetic brake keeps slamming on when I riding in fast mode, it’s dangerous !! How do I fix it ?
Can the electro magnetic brake be disarmed? It’s dangerous and I don’t like it !
Thanks, Robert James Tel > 0790 499 5613
ps the scooter is only 6 months old from new,
The controls are poorly defined. (No close ups or arrows on diagrams). The Gravis seems to have a twist throttle and mechanical brakes only. Does it coast when the throttle is closed, requiring the user to manually brake? The Turris has “an acceleration button”. What does that mean, what does it do? There is then a magnetic brake. How does the magnetic brake interact with the acceleration button?
Hello Leslie,
TURRIS has a big full LED display with high contrast so everything is clear and well visible. Moreover, with every Veleco mobility scooter, our customers get a user manual where all controls are defined in great detail, with close-ups and arrows diagrams. If the user attends to stop the scooter it is necessary to manually brake. It isn’t required when the rider wants to slow down a little bit only. Then all they have to do is gently rise the finger which is used to accelerate with the button you are writing about. The acceleration button in this model is used as a classic throttle – you have to push it to accelerate the scooter. It is a convenience for those who are not able to use the classic throttle e.i. because of the wrist problems. When it comes to the magnetic brake: it prevents the vehicle from skidding down a hill or when going up a hill and coming to a halt in the process. That’s how it is supposed to work and that’s how it works in Veleco TURRIS as well.
Is it possible to increase the range of the 3 wheel scooter
Hello John, the range of our tricycles listed on the website is an average value provided by the manufacturer. Please bear in mind that the range a scooter can achieve is influenced by a number of factors, such as the surface you ride on, the continuity of your ride, the weight of the user, as well as how the battery is charged, how the vehicle is garaged and the general care of the scooter. We cannot change the standards of our products. Therefore, the maximum range of the TURRIS is 31 mi.
