II. SAFETY
Your Golden LiteRider™ is a battery-operated personal mobility vehicle. Please exercise
caution and consideration when you are operating it. Driving your LiteRider carefully and
thoughtfully will help ensure your personal safety and the safety of other people.
NOTE: Before learning to operate your LiteRider, have your authorized Golden
Technologies, Inc. dealer determine if it is advisable for you to practice getting on and off
your scooter and operating it in the presence of an attendant.
BEFORE GETTING ON YOUR LITERIDER
• Check to be certain that the power is turned off. See section V. "Operation" in this
manual. This will eliminate the possibility of accidentally activating the paddle controls and
causing injury to yourself and/or others.
• Check to be certain that your LiteRider’s freewheel lever is in the engaged position. See
section V. “Operation” in this manual.
• Flip up the armrest(s).
When getting on or off your LiteRider, keep your weight toward the middle of the
deck. Putting most or all of your weight on the edge of the deck may cause an unstable
condition.
GETTING ON YOUR LITERIDER
• Position the seat for safe and easy mounting. Ensure that the seat is facing forward. See
section V. "Operation."
• Return tiller to full upright position if necessary.
• Carefully place one foot on the approximate center of the deck and seat yourself
comfortably and securely on the seat.
• Flip down the armrest(s).
GETTING OFF YOUR LITERIDER
• Make certain that the power is turned off and the key is removed.
• Return tiller to full upright position
• Flip up the armrest(s).
• Carefully place one foot on the ground, transfer your weight to that leg, and slowly come
to a standing position.
• Step away from the scooter.
MAXIMUM WEIGHT
Your LiteRider has been rated to a maximum payload (operator and anything else being
carried on the scooter) of 300 pounds. Exceeding the maximum weight rating will void the
warranty.
Exceeding the maximum weight rating may result in injury to yourself and/or
others.

II. SAFETY
DRIVING ON INCLINES
• For maximum stability, lean forward in your LiteRider’s seat while proceeding up ramps,
inclines, curbs, or any low rise. See figure 2.
• Drive with caution when attempting to negotiate any incline, even handicap access
ramps.
• Always climb or descend an incline by driving straight up or straight down the face of the
slope. See figure 2.
• Do not traverse or drive across the face of an incline in any direction. See figure 3.
• Do not attempt to negotiate an incline that is covered with snow, ice, cut or wet grass,
leaves, or any other potentially hazardous material.
• Do not back down an incline.
• Try to keep your LiteRider moving when climbing an incline. If you do come to a stop,
restart and accelerate slowly and carefully.
• Do not try to descend or climb a slope whose gradient is greater than recommended.
* LiteRider maximum recommend incline is 6°.
Figure 2. Going Up an Incline
Figure 3. Traversing an Incline
If, while you are driving down a slope, your scooter starts to move faster than
you feel is safe, release the throttle control lever and allow your Buzzaround XL to come to
a stop. When you feel that you again have control of your scooter, push the throttle control
lever forward and continue safely down the remainder of the slope.
DRIVING DOWN A DECLINE
• Lower speed setting.
• Whenever it is safely possible, drive forward down any ramp, low rise, or incline.
Golden Technologies, Inc. does not recommend that you drive your scooter in reverse down
any incline, ramp, curb, or low rise. Backing down any slope may create a very hazardous
situation. If it is necessary to back down a slope follow one of two procedures.

LiteRider™ Owner’s Manual
Rev.A_122810
II. SAFETY
NOTE: When using either of the following procedures to back down a slope, Golden
Technologies, Inc. strongly advises that you have the assistance of another person.
Procedure 1 - Under Power
1. Set the key switch to the “Off” position. See section V. “Operation.”
2. Turn the speed control dial fully counterclockwise to its slowest setting.
3. Dismount your LiteRider.
4. Set the key switch to the “On” position. See section V. “Operation.”
5. While standing alongside your scooter, carefully operate the controls at the lowest speed
setting. See section V. “Operation.”
6. Slowly and carefully back your scooter down the incline.
7. Carefully remount your LiteRider and resume normal operation.
When your scooter is in freewheel mode, the park brake is released. The weight of
the scooter on a slope may cause you to lose control of the scooter. If you do not feel
capable of manually controlling your scooter down the slope, request assistance or do not
attempt to use this procedure.
Procedure 2 - Emergency (No Power)
1. Set the key switch to the “Off” position. See section V. “Operation.”
2. Dismount your LiteRider.
3. Set the freewheel lever to “Disengaged.”
4. While standing alongside the scooter, carefully manually maneuver it down the slope.
5. When you have reached a level surface at the bottom of the slope, position the freewheel
lever in the engaged position. See section V. “Operation.”
6. Carefully remount your LiteRider, and set the key switch to the “On” position to restore
power.
Motor Braking System
Your scooter is equipped with a system that uses the motor to aid in braking. This motor
brake system is designed to work when the key is in either the on position or the off
position.
When the key is in the on position, the freewheel is in the engaged position, and the scooter
is under power, the motor will help slow down the scooter as soon as you take your hand
off of the throttle lever.
When the key switch is in the off position and the freewheel is in the disengaged position,
the motor brake system will keep you from pushing the scooter too fast (i.e. down a slope).
You may notice this when pushing the scooter. The scooter will move freely until you reach
a certain speed. You will then encounter some resistance as the motor brake system is
activated.

II. SAFETY
MEDICATION
Always check with your physician to determine if any of the medications you are taking
may affect your judgment and/or your ability to operate your LiteRider. Also check with
your physician concerning your physical ability to operate a scooter.
Do not connect or allow anyone except an authorized Golden Technologies, Inc.
dealer to connect any electrical or mechanical device to your LiteRider. Unauthorized
accessories will void the warranty and may cause injury.
NOTE: Please remember that while on your Golden LiteRider, you are a motorized
pedestrian. You must observe and obey all pedestrian rules and regulations for the locale in
which you are riding.
Please use your Golden LiteRider™ scooter often and allow it to expand the horizons of your
daily life. The more mobility your Golden LiteRider brings to you, the happier you will be,
and the more satisfied we at Golden Technologies, Inc. will be! But as with all things,
especially motor operated vehicles, observing a few rules and safety considerations will help
ensure safe scooter operation. So please follow the rules below.

III. EMI/RFI
The rapid development of electronics, especially in the area of communications, has
saturated our environment with electromagnetic (radio) waves that are emitted by television
transmitters, cellular phones, citizen’s band radios (CBs), amateur radios (ham radios),
wireless computer links, microwave transmitters, paging transmitters, etc. These
electromagnetic (EM) waves are invisible and increase in strength the closer one gets to the
source of transmission. When these energy waves act upon electrical devices and cause
them to malfunction or to function in an erratic or uncontrolled manner, they are referred
to as Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) or Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).
EMI/RFI AND YOUR LITERIDER
All electrically powered vehicles, including scooters are susceptible to Electromagnetic
Interference/Radio Frequency Interference (EMI/RFI). This interference could result in
abnormal, unintended movement of your Golden LiteRider.
Unintended movement or brake release could cause an accident or injury.
The FDA has determined that each make and model of scooter can resist EMI/RFI to a
certain level. The higher the level of resistance, the greater the degree of protection from
EMI/RFI—measured in volts per meter (V/m). The FDA has also determined that current
technology is capable of providing 20 V/m of resistance to EMI/RFI, which would provide
useful protection against common sources of interference. This product has been tested
and has passed an immunity level of 20 V/m.
EMI/RFI RECOMMENDATIONS
• Do not turn on or use hand-held personal electronic communication devices such as
cellular phones, walkie-talkies, and CB radios while your scooter is turned on.
• Be aware of any nearby transmitters (radio, television, microwave, etc.) on your intended
route and avoid operating your scooter close to any of those transmitters.
• Turn off the power if your LiteRider is going to be in a stationary position for any length of
time.
• Be aware that adding accessories or components or modifying your scooter may make it
more susceptible to EMI/RFI.
• If unintended movement or park brake release occurs, turn your scooter off as soon as it
is safe to do so.
• Report all incidents of unintended movement or park brake failure to Golden
Technologies, Inc. Technical Service at (800) 624-6374.
Turn off your scooter as soon as it is safely possible if unintended or
uncontrollable motion occurs or if unintended park brake release occurs.

• Use your left hand fingers to pull back on the left side of the throttle control lever.
• Use your right thumb to push the right side of the throttle control lever.
When the throttle control lever is completely released, it automatically returns to the center
“stop” position and engages your scooter’s brakes, bringing you to a complete stop. You will
hear a “click” when the park brake engages.
Control Options
Golden Technologies, Inc. has made provision for the individual needs and abilities of the
operators of the Golden LiteRider.
Your authorized Golden Technologies, Inc. dealer can reverse the throttle control lever
controls so that when you pull on the left side of the lever, your scooter will move in the
forward direction, and when you pull on the right side of the lever your scooter will move in
the reverse direction.

VI. RIDING YOUR LiteRider™
MOUNTING
NOTE: For your first driving session, make certain that your Golden LiteRider™ starts out
on a level surface and that you will continue driving on a level surface.
BEFORE GETTING ON YOUR LITERIDER
1. Check to be certain that the power is turned off. See section V. "Operation" in this
manual. This will eliminate the possibility of accidentally activating the paddle controls and
causing injury to yourself and/or others.
2. Check to be certain that your LiteRider’s freewheel lever is in the engaged position. See
“Freewheel Mode” on page 19 of section V. “Operation” in this manual.
3. Flip up the armrest(s).
When getting on or off your LiteRider, keep your weight toward the middle
of the deck. Putting most or all of your weight on the edge of the deck may cause an
unstable condition.
GETTING ON YOUR LITERIDER
1. Position the seat for safe and easy mounting. Ensure that the seat is facing forward. See
section V. "Operation."
2. Return tiller to full upright position if necessary.
3 Carefully place one foot on the approximate center of the deck and seat yourself
comfortably and securely on the seat.
4. Flip down the armrest(s).
5. Place the key into the key switch.
6. Rotate the key to the on position. See #1 on figure 12.

VI. RIDING YOUR LiteRider™
BASIC DRIVING
1. Make certain that you are seated safely and properly on your Golden LiteRider.
2. Turn the speed control dial fully counterclockwise to its slowest setting.
3. Insert the key into the key switch—if you have not already done so.
4. Turn the key clockwise to the “On” position. See figure 12 on page 20.
5. Place your hands on the handgrips.
• If you wish to drive forward, pull back on the right side of the throttle control lever (or
push the left side of the throttle control lever forward).
• If you wish to drive in reverse, pull back the left side of the throttle control lever (or push
the right side of the throttle control lever forward).
6. Pull on the throttle control lever to gently move your LiteRider.
7. Release the throttle control lever to allow your LiteRider to come gently to a full stop.
8. Practice these two basic functions until you feel that you have control of your scooter.
Steering
Steering your Golden LiteRider is easy and logical.
1. With both hands on the handgrips of the tiller (see figure 4 on page 13), turn the tiller to
the right to travel to the right.
2. With both hands on the handgrips of the tiller (see figure 4 on page 13), turn the tiller to
the left to travel to the left.
3. Make certain to maintain sufficient clearance when turning your scooter so that the
rear wheels will clear any obstacle.
Turning your scooter too sharply at too high of a speed may create a situation
where one of the rear wheels will leave the ground and the possibility of tipping the scooter.
Avoid this danger at all times by decelerating and steering a wide arc around corners and
obstacles.

VI. RIDING YOUR LiteRider™
CONTROL THROUGH TIGHT SPOTS
As you use your Golden LiteRider to greatly increase your mobility, you will undoubtedly
encounter some obstacles that will require practice to negotiate smoothly and safely. Below
are some common obstacles that you may meet during the daily use of your scooter. Listed
with those obstacles are some driving tips that should help you conquer those obstacles.
Learn and follow those tips, and with surprising ease you will soon be in control of your
LiteRider as you maneuver it through doors, up and down ramps, up and over curbs,
through grass and gravel, and up and down inclines.
Ramps
When proceeding up any ramp, curb, or incline:
• Lean forward in your seat to move your center of gravity forward for maximum stability
and safety. If the ramp has a switchback, good cornering ability is required.
• Maneuver your LiteRider so that the front wheels take wide swings around the corners of
the ramp.
• Doing this will allow your scooter's back wheels to follow a wide arc around the corner,
staying clear of obstacles.
If you must stop your LiteRider while driving up a ramp:
• Starting up again simply requires that you apply gentle and steady forward power
pressure to the throttle control lever.
• Accelerate gently after stopping on any incline.
Driving down a ramp:
• Keep your LiteRider’s speed control dial set fully counterclockwise at the slowest speed
setting.
• If you must come to a stop, release the throttle control lever slowly and smoothly.
Prevent injury! Do not drive down an incline in reverse.
Curbs
• See specifications for maximum curb height.
• Always use caution when negotiating any curb.
• Go up or down a curb head at a direct 90° angle.
• Approach and negotiate the curb so that both back wheels of your scooter go over the
curb at the same time.
• Never negotiate inclines or curbs by traversing them. Doing so may cause the scooter to
tip over.
• Go down a curb slowly to avoid a jarring bump. Use as little power as possible.
Grass and Gravel
Your Golden LiteRider performs admirably on grass, gravel, and hills, but you must follow
the operational parameters presented in this manual. Refer to the “Safety” section. If you
are unsure about any situation, avoid it. Common sense is your best protection.
• Feel free to use your Golden LiteRider on lawns or in park areas.
• Avoid long or high grass, which may wrap around your scooter's axles.
• Avoid loose gravel.

X. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
BATTERIES AND CHARGING
Battery maintenance is the most important part of maintaining your scooter. Keeping the
batteries fully charged helps to extend battery life. Use the following guidelines to help keep
your batteries in optimum condition.
• For daily use, keep batteries fully charged. We recommend that you plug in the off-board
charger after each use and charge 6-8 hours.
• If you are not going to use the scooter for more than a week, fully charge the batteries
and then disconnect them from the scooter. See figure 14 on page 24.
To Charge the Batteries:
The charger for all LiteRider models is an off-board charger. To charge the batteries, plug
the charger into the charger port on the battery pack or on the side of the console. See
figures 25 and 26.

Rev.A_122810
X. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
IF YOUR LiteRider™ DOES NOT OPERATE
• Make certain that the freewheel lever is set to the engaged position. See page 19.
• Check the main circuit breaker. If necessary, reset the circuit breaker. See #1 on figure
27.
• Make certain that the speed adjustment dial is at the desired setting.
• Make certain that the key switch is set to the “On” position.
If none of the above procedures solve the problem, contact your authorized Golden
Technologies, Inc. dealer.
MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER
The main circuit breaker reset button is
located on the side of the battery pack. See #1 on
figure 27.
Do not attempt electrical repairs.
Consult Golden Technologies, Inc. or your
authorized Golden Technologies, Inc. dealer.
If, for no apparent reason, your LiteRider stops
operating, the main circuit breaker may have
tripped.
Figure 27. Main Circuit Breaker
Possible causes for the main circuit breaker to trip:
• Driving up a long, steep hill.
• Driving over a curb.
• Run-down batteries.
As you operate your LiteRider, battery voltages go down and battery current must rise to
satisfy the demands of the motor and of other electrical devices operating on your scooter.
This can cause a heavy current draw that will trip the main circuit breaker.
Remedy:
• Recharge your LiteRider’s batteries. See “Charger and Batteries” in this section of this
manual.
• If the problem continues, have your authorized Golden Technologies, Inc. dealer load test
the batteries.
• If the batteries are good, the charger may be the problem. Consult your authorized Golden
Technologies, Inc. dealer.
