II. SAFETY
PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK
Get to know the feel of your scooter and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before
each use to make sure your scooter operates smoothly and safely. For details on how to perform these necessary
inspections, see XII. Care and Maintenance.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your scooter:
n Check for proper tire inflation. Maintain 30-35 psi in each tire (if equipped with pneumatic tires).
n Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
n Check all controller connections to the utility tray. Make sure they are secured properly.
n Check the brakes.
n Check battery charge.
WARNING! It is critically important that 30-35 psi tire pressure be maintained in pneumatic tires at
all times. Failure to maintain 30-35 psi tire pressure in pneumatic tires at all times may result in
catastrophic tire and/or wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to your
scooter.
WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your scooter. Carrying passengers on your scooter may
result in personal injury and/or property damage.
If you discover a problem, contact your authorized Pride provider for assistance.
WEIGHT LIMITATIONS
Your scooter is rated for a 400-lb. maximum weight limit.
INCLINE INFORMATION
More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access.
Some ramps may have turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to have good cornering skills on
your scooter.
n Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
n Take wide swings with your scooters front wheel around any tight corners. If you do that, the scooters rear
wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get hung up on any railing corners.
n When driving down a ramp, keep the scooters speed adjustment set to the slowest speed setting to ensure a
safely controlled descent. See V. Your Maxima.
n Avoid sudden stops and starts.
WARNING! Exceeding the weight limit voids your warranty and may result in personal injury and
damage to your scooter. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property damage
resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
