III. YOUR POWER CHAIR
Manual Freewheel Levers
Your power chair has a manual freewheel lever on each motor. Manual freewheel levers enable you to disengage
the drive motors from the gearboxes and maneuver the chair manually.
WARNING! Do not use the power chair while the drive motors are disengaged! Do not
disengage the drive motors when the power chair is on an incline or decline, as the
unit could roll on its own. Only engage the freewheel mode when on a level surface.
WARNING! It is important to remember that when your power chair is in freewheel
mode, the braking system is disengaged.
To engage or disengage the drive motors:
1. Locate the levers at the front of the power base.
2. Pull both levers upward to engage the drive motors (drive mode). See fi gure 4.
3. Push both levers downward to disengage the drive motors (freewheel mode). See fi gure 5.
If a lever is diffi cult to move in either direction, slightly rock the power chair back and forth. The lever should
then move to the desired position.
WARNING! Avoid applying excessive force to the manual freewheel levers.
WARNING! Do not use your foot to operate the manual freewheel levers. Do not stand on the
manual freewheel levers. Applying excessive force to the manual freewheel levers may result in
damage to the freewheel levers, motors, and brakes.
WARNING! Do not use the freewheel lever handles as tie-down points to secure this product.
