Manual Freewheel Levers

Your power chair has a manual freewheel lever on each motor. Manual freewheel levers enable you to disengage the drive motors from the gearboxes and maneuver the chair manually.

WARNING! Do not use the power chair while the drive motors are disengaged! Do not disengage the drive motors when the power chair is on an incline or decline, as the unit could roll on its own. Only engage the freewheel mode when on a level surface.

WARNING! It is important to remember that when your power chair is in freewheel mode, the braking system is disengaged.

To engage or disengage the drive motors:

1.Locate the lever on the top of the power base.

2.Push both levers forward away from the seat post to engage the drive motors (drive mode). See figure 4.

3.Pull both levers rearward toward the seat post to disengage the drive motors (freewheel mode). See figure 5.

If a lever is difficult to move in either direction, slightly rock the power chair back and forth. The lever should then move to the desired position.

WARNING! Do not use the freewheel lever handles as tie-down points to secure this product.
