Motor/Transaxle Assembly (Not Shown)
The motor/transaxle assembly is an electromechanical unit that converts electrical energy from your scooters
batteries into the controlled mechanical energy that drives the scooters wheels.
Manual Freewheel Lever
Whenever you need or want to push your scooter for short distances, you can put it in freewheel mode.
n
Remove the key from the key switch.
n
Push forward on the manual freewheel lever to disable the drive system and the brake system.
n
You may now push your scooter.
n
Pull back on the manual freewheel lever to reengage the drive and the brake systems and take your scooter out
of freewheel mode.
WARNING! When your scooter is in freewheel mode, the braking system is disengaged.
n
Disengage the drive motors only on a level surface.
n
Ensure the key is removed from the key switch.
n
Stand behind the scooter to engage or disengage freewheel mode. Never sit on a
scooter to do this.
n
After you have finished pushing your scooter, 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 scooter.
NOTE: If the scooter is placed in freewheel mode (manual freewheel lever forward) while the key is in the
on position, the scooter will not run until the manual freewheel lever is pushed rearward 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 scooter 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.
n
The reset button pops out when the breaker trips.
n
Allow a minute or so for the electronics to rest.
n
Push in the reset button to reactivate the main circuit breaker. See figure 6.
n
If the main circuit breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge your batteries more often. You may also
need to have a load test performed on your scooters batteries
n
If the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, please contact your authorised Pride Provider.
