Manual Freewheel Lever

Whenever you need or want to push your scooter for short distances, you can put it in freewheel mode.

!Remove the key from the key switch.

!Push forward on the manual freewheel lever to disable the drive system and the brake system.

!You may now push your scooter.

!Pull back on the manual freewheel lever to reengage the drive and the brake systems and take your scooter out of freewheel mode.

WARNING! When your scooter is in freewheel mode, the braking system is disengaged.

!Disengage the drive motors only on a level surface.

!Ensure the key is removed from the key switch.

!Stand behind the scooter to engage or disengage freewheel mode. Never sit on a

scooter to do this.

!After you have finished pushing your scooter, always return it to the drive mode to lock the brakes.

Failure to heed the above could result in personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

NOTE: If the scooter is placed in freewheel mode (manual freewheel lever forward) while the key is in the “on” position, the scooter will not run until the manual freewheel lever is pushed rearward and the key is turned to the “off” position, then back to the “on” position.

Main Circuit Breaker (Reset Button)

When the voltage in the batteries becomes low or your scooter is heavily strained because of excessive loads, the main circuit breaker may trip to protect the motor and electronics from damage. When the breaker trips, the entire electrical system shuts down.

!The main circuit breaker reset button is located on the rear section. See figure 10.

!The reset button pops out when the breaker trips.

!Allow a minute or so for the electronics to “rest.”

!Push in the reset button to reset the breaker.

!If the breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge the batteries more often or have your authorised Pride Dealer perform a load test on the batteries.

Motor/Transaxle Assembly (Not Shown)

The motor/transaxle assembly is an electromechanical unit that converts electrical energy from your scooter’s batteries into the controlled mechanical energy that drives the scooter’s wheels.
