Transporting your Powerchair
Contact your dealer for advice on how best to transport your powerchair in your vehicle. You may prefer to use
ramps rather than lifting the components.
After Using Ramps to Unload Your Powerchair
• Position the powerchair on level, solid ground
• Check parts for any sign of damage.
• Select power on and ensure that the battery level indicator shows green. If not charge the Powerchair before use.
• Check the freewheel levers are in the “drive” position and not in the “freewheel”position
• Get on the Powerchair and test the operation of the joystick, speed control and on off switch before using
the Powerchair to go anywhere. If there is any malfunction, check that the joystick connection has been
correctly put together and locked. You are now ready to drive the Powerchair away.

the front of the joystick assembly. With
the charger disconnected from the
mains, push the charger plug into the
