Motor/Transaxle Assembly (Not Shown)

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

Manual Freewheel Lever

Whenever you need or want to push your PMV 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 PMV.

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

WARNING! When your PMV 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 to the side of the PMV to engage or disengage freewheel mode. Never sit on a PMV to do this.

!After you have finished pushing your PMV, 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 PMV.

NOTE: If the PMV is placed in freewheel mode (manual freewheel lever forward) while the key is in the “on” position, the PMV will not run until the manual freewheel lever is pushed backward 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 PMV 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 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 authorized Pride Provider perform a load test on the batteries.

!If the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, see your authorized Pride Provider for service.
