Your Legend 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

νFor optimum Scooter performance we recommend that the tire pressure be maintained at 30-35 psi.

WARNING! Do not exceed 35 psi; overinflating a tire can cause it to explode.

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

νUse a rubber conditioner on your Legend’s tires to help to preserve them.

νDo not put rubber conditioner on tire tread; this may cause the tires to become dangerously slippery.

EXTERIOR SURFACES

νBumpers and trim also benefit from an occasional application of rubber or vinyl conditioner.

WARNING! Do not apply a rubber or vinyl conditioner on the Scooter’s vinyl seat or tire tread; they will become dangerously slippery.

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 Legend.

WIRING

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 harness, connection, or insulation that you find before using your Legend again.

ABS PLASTIC SHROUDS

νThe control console assembly shroud, front shroud, and the rear shroud are formed from durable ABS plastic and 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

νThese items are all prelubricated, sealed, and require no subsequent lubrication.

MOTOR BRUSHES

νThe motor brushes are housed inside of the motor transaxle/assembly. They should be inspected periodically for wear by your authorized Pride provider.

CONSOLE, CHARGER, AND ELECTRONIC CONTROLLER ASSEMBLY

νKeep these areas free of moisture.

νIf any of these items do become exposed to moisture, let them dry thoroughly before operating your Legend again.
