νCheck all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and are not corroded. Batteries must sit flat within the battery well, with the battery terminals facing inward, toward each other. Refer to the frame decal for the correct wiring layout.
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 center 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 service center if there is a problem.
νVisually inspect the controller harnesses. Make sure that they are not frayed or cut or have any wires exposed. See your authorized Pride provider if there is a problem with any of these harnesses.
WEEKLY CHECKS
νDisconnect and inspect the controller and the charger harnesses from the utility tray. Look for corro- sion. Contact your authorized Pride provider if necessary.
νEnsure that all parts of the controller system are securely fastened to your Jazzy. Do not overtighten any screws.
νCheck for proper tire inflation. There should be 30 – 35 psi in each tire. If a tire does not hold air, see your authorized Pride provider for replacement of the tube.
νCalibrate the joystick if a noticeable difference in performance is detected or if the joystick does not operate properly. You can do this for both the Remote Plus and Pilot controllers.
νCheck the brakes. This test should be carried out on a level surface with at least three feet of clearance around your Jazzy.
