If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tires and you have a flat tire, you can have the tube replaced. If your scooter is equipped with a solid tire insert, either the solid insert or the entire wheel must be replaced depending on the model. Contact your authorized Pride Provider for information regarding replacement wheels for your scooter.
WARNING! Wheels on your scooter should only be serviced/replaced by an authorized Pride Provider or qualified technician.
WARNING! Be sure that the key is removed from the key switch and the scooter is not in freewheel mode before performing this procedure.
