Foreword
Read this entire manual carefully before operating the product. The information
contained in this manual is essential for the safe use and proper maintenance of the
hoss R1. For ease of reading, the hoss R1 is referred to only as hoss in this manual.
Hoss R1 is the product name! Hoss Mobility GmbH is the inventor, developer and
manufacturer of the hoss R1.
In addition to this manual, you will also receive a manual for the "Jay" backrest. If
the manual for the "Jay" backrest is not included in the delivery, please contact your
dealer.
Intended use
The hoss (personal care robot) is intended exclusively for people for personal use
indoors and outdoors on paved surfaces. Sufficient cognitive, physical and visual
skills are required to drive a hoss. The user must be able to assess and correct the
effects of actions when operating the hoss. The hoss cannot transport more than 1
person at a time. The maximum weight (the user's body weight and the weight of
the accessories installed on the wheelchair) must not exceed 120kg. The user must
read and understand the contents of this manual before riding the hoss. Therefore,
all users of the hoss must be thoroughly instructed by qualified professionals before
participating in road traffic. After instruction and handover, the user must practice
his/her first rides on open and free surfaces until the driving characteristics of the
hoss are understood and internalized.
The user of the hoss is at all times fully responsible for compliance with locally
applicable safety regulations.
Anyone who has taken medication or been treated with medication that could
impair their ability to drive the hoss must not operate the hoss.
Good eyesight is essential to safely operate a hoss.
Never allow more than one person to sit on the hoss at a time.
Children must never ride the hoss without adult supervision.

General safety instructions
The safety instructions help you understand the features of the hoss. For safe use, it
is essential that you read and understand the safety instructions before taking your
first ride. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or property damage. The
order of the instructions does not indicate their importance.
Cautionary / warning signs
• The instructions marked with such a warning/cautionary sign must be carefully
observed! Failure to follow these instructions carefully may result in personal
injury or damage to the hoss or the surrounding area.
•Regardless of the special marking of the warning notes, the entire contents of
this operating manual must be applied to ensure safe operation!
Stickers and notices affixed to the robot
The signs, symbols and notices attached to the hoss are part of the protective
devices. These must therefore never be covered or removed. They must be present
and clearly readable / recognizable during the entire service life of the hoss. Replace
or repair all illegible or damaged signs, symbols and notices immediately.

Speed
The hoss has a maximum speed of 15 km/h. As with all vehicles, you must adjust the
speed according to the situation. Especially in narrow places and also when driving
on slopes or curves it is necessary to reduce the speed. Always remember that you
have a longer braking distance when going downhill.
●Reduce speed to walking speed on steep inclines/declines or ramps!
●Use turtle mode if necessary!
●Drive no faster than walking speed in pedestrian zones.
●Drive with foresight: Always observe the necessary braking distance.
●Reduce speed on curves
Minimum distance
The special feature of the hoss is that it dynamically stabilizes itself. That is, it always
strives to keep the center of gravity on its axis. This is achieved by the hoss
constantly adjusting the angle (vertical axis). If you move forward, the hoss has to
take up some forward travel to counteract your center of gravity change. To do this,
the hoss must be able to move a bit at any time. Therefore, it is extremely important
that you always maintain the minimum distances to obstacles/people. When the
hoss is in balance mode, it can move within the safety distance at any time.
If it is not possible to maintain the
minimum distances, e.g.: when
driving through a doorway or in the
checkout area of a supermarket, steer
with special care and drive at
minimum speed.
