Manual Freewheel Levers
For your convenience, your power chair is equipped with two manual freewheel levers mounted on the motors.
These levers allow you to disengage the drive motors and maneuver the chair manually. You can manually push
the power chair by the seatback.
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, 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 lever on the front of each motor.
2. Push the two levers downward to disengage the drive motors (freewheel mode). See figure 8.
3. Pull the two levers upward to engage the drive motors (drive mode). See figure 9.
NOTE: If a lever is difficult to move in either direction, slightly rock the power chair back and forth. The lever
should then move to the desired position.
WARNING! Do not use the freewheel lever handles as tie-down points to secure this product.
