The Powerchair will not function while the drive
mechanism is disengaged (in freewheel).
Both left and right sides must be in drive mode for power chair
to operate. Otherwise the Powerchair motors will spin, but the
unit will not move, until both freewheel levers are engaged. Unit
will spin in circles if only one side is in drive mode.
*** DO NOT PUT INTO DRIVE MODE WHILE MOTORS ARE
SPINNING ****
