22 Maxima
Main Circuit Breaker
When the voltage in your Maximas batteries becomes low or your Maxima is heavily strained because of exces-
sive loads or steep inclines, the main circuit breaker may trip to protect your Maximas motor and electronics from
damage.
n The main circuit breaker (reset button) is mounted on the electronic controller assembly cover. See figure 8.
n The main circuit breaker reset button pops out when the breaker trips.
n When the breaker trips, the entire electrical system of your Maxima is shut down.
n Allow a minute or so for your Maximas electronics to rest.
n Push in the reset button to reset the breaker.
n If the breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge your batteries more often. You may also need to have
your authorized Pride provider perform a load test on your Maximas batteries.
Manual Freewheel Lever
Whenever you need, or want, to push your Maxima for short distances, you can put it in freewheel mode.
n The manual freewheel lever is located on the end of the motor/transaxle assembly at the right rear of the
Maxima. See figure 9.
n Pull up on the manual freewheel lever to disable the drive system and the brake system. You will then be able
to push your Maxima.
n Push down on the manual freewheel lever to reengage the drive and the brake systems. This takes your
Maxima out of freewheel mode.
Motor/Transaxle Assembly
The motor/transaxle assembly is the electromechanical unit that converts the electrical energy of your Maximas
batteries into the controlled mechanical energy that drives the Maximas wheels. See figure 9.
Anti-Tip Wheels
The anti-tip wheels are an integral and important safety feature of your Maxima. Do not, under any circumstances,
remove the anti-tip wheels from your Maxima. The three-wheel Maxima is equipped with both front and rear anti-
tip wheels. See figures 9 and 9A.

WARNING! Before placing your Maxima in or taking it out of freewheel mode, make
certain that the key is removed from the key switch. Even though the motor of your Maxima
is disengaged from the drive system when your scooter is put in freewheel mode, the
motor can still run if the throttle control lever is pushed. Never sit on a scooter when it is
in freewheel mode. Never put a scooter in freewheel mode on any incline.
