Your scooter requires a minimal amount of care and maintenance. If you do not feel confident in your ability to perform the maintenance listed below, you may schedule inspection and maintenance at your authorized Pride Provider. The following areas require periodic inspection and/or care and maintenance.

TIRE PRESSURE

νIf equipped with pneumatic tires, always maintain a proper 30-35 psi tire pressure.

WARNING! It is important that 30-35 psi tire pressure be maintained in pneumatic tires at all times. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to maintain 30-35 psi tire pressure in pneumatic tires at all times may result in tire and/or wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

νRegularly inspect your scooter’s tires for signs of wear.

EXTERIOR SURFACES

Bumpers, tires, and trim can benefit from an occasional application of rubber or vinyl conditioner.

WARNING! Do not use a rubber or vinyl conditioner on the scooter’s vinyl seat, floorboard, or tire tread. They will become dangerously slippery and result in personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

BATTERY TERMINAL CONNECTIONS

νMake certain that the terminal connections remain tight and uncorroded.

νThe batteries must sit flat in the battery wells.

νThe battery terminals should face the rear of the scooter.

WIRING HARNESSES

νRegularly check all wiring connections.

νRegularly check all wiring insulation, including the charger power cord, for wear or damage.

νHave your authorized Pride Provider repair or replace any damaged connector, connection, or insula- tion that you find before using your scooter again.

ABS PLASTIC SHROUDS

νThe front tiller shroud, front shroud, and the rear shroud are formed from durable ABS plastic and are coated with an advanced formula urethane paint.

νA light application of car wax will help the shrouds retain their high gloss.

AXLE BEARINGS AND THE MOTOR/TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY These items are all prelubricated, sealed, and require no subsequent lubrication.

MOTOR BRUSHES

The motor brushes are housed inside of the motor transaxle/assembly. They should be inspected periodi- cally for wear by your authorized Pride Provider.
