νAll wheel bearings are prelubricated and sealed. They require no subsequent lubrication.

Daily Checks

νWith the controller turned off, check the joystick. Make sure it is not bent or damaged and that it returns to the neutral position when you release it. Check the rubber boot around the base of the joystick for damage. Visually inspect the boot. Do not handle or try to repair it. See your authorized Pride Provider if there is a problem.

νVisually inspect the controller cable. Make sure that it is not frayed, cut, or has any wires exposed. See your authorized Pride Provider if there is a problem.

νCheck for flat spots on solid tires. Flat spots could adversely affect stability.

Weekly Checks

νDisconnect and inspect the controller battery door. Look for corrosion. Contact your authorized Pride Provider if necessary.

νEnsure that all parts of the controller system are securely fastened to your power chair. Do not overtighten any screws.

νCheck for proper tire inflation. There should be 35 psi in each tire (if equipped with pneumatic tires). If a tire does not hold air, see your authorized Pride Provider for replacement of the tube.

νCheck the brakes. This test should be carried out on a level surface with at least three feet of clearance around your power chair.

To check the brakes:

1.Turn on the controller and turn down the speed level of your power chair.

2.After one second, check the battery condition meter. Make sure that it remains on.

3.Slowly push the joystick forward until you hear the electromagnetic brakes click. Immediately release the joystick.You must be able to hear each electromagnetic brake operating within a few seconds of joystick movement. Repeat this test three times, pushing the joystick backwards, then left, and then right.

Monthly Checks

νCheck that the anti-tip wheels do not rub the ground when you operate the power chair.Adjust them as necessary. See VI. “ComfortAdjustments.”

νCheck for extreme wear on the anti-tip wheels. Replace them as necessary.

νCheck for drive tire wear. See your authorized Pride Provider for repair.

νCheck the caster wheels for wear. Replace them as necessary.

νCheck the caster forks for damage or fluttering which indicates that they may need to be adjusted or have the bearings replaced. See your authorized Pride Provider for repair.

νKeep your power chair clean and free of foreign material, such as mud, dirt, hair, food, drink, etc.
