Transporting the Model 760
By Car
— To transport your power chair by car, place each of the components into the trunk, being careful not to scratch
or mark any of the finished surfaces. If you need assistance lifting weights, consider asking Electric Mobility’s Customer
Service Department or your authorized service center about the Power Trunk Lift. This device will assist you in
transporting your Fold & Go by transferring these components in and out of your trunk with very little effort. (See
“
Specifications
” for more information on weights).
By Airplane
— To transport your power chair on an airplane, we recommend that you call your airline at least 24 hours
in advance to ensure that they are able to handle your vehicle properly. Ask your airline whether they will need to
disassemble the Fold & Go or whether they plan to load and store it on the plane without disassembly. Ask specifically
where and with whom you should drop the unit off and where and with whom you should retrieve it at your destination.
We also recommend, when possible, to check your vehicle in at the gate.
Note:
Only sealed lead-acid or sealed gel batteries are Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) approved for air travel.
Remember to bring this manual with you as a reference on your trip. Your manual will assist you in disassembling and re-
assembling your vehicle.
Prior to leaving the airport, remember to test the unit when first getting on it. Direct any questions to the airline
personnel if the unit does not work as it did prior to transportation.
