WHEEL REPLACEMENT
If your PMV is equipped with pneumatic tires and
you have a flat tire, you can have the tube replaced.
If your PMV is equipped with a solid tire insert,
either the solid insert or the entire wheel must be
replaced depending on the model. Contact your
authorized Pride Provider for information regarding
replacement wheels for your PMV.
WARNING! Wheels on your PMV
should only be serviced/replaced by
an authorized Pride Provider or quali-
fied technician.
WARNING! Completely deflate pneu-
matic tires before dismantling the
rim or attempting repair.
WARNING! Be sure that the key is
removed from the key switch and the
PMV is not in freewheel mode before
performing this procedure.
WARNING! When changing a tire,
remove only the center lug nut, then
remove the wheel. If any further dis-
assembly is required, deflate the tire
completely or it may explode.
Follow these easy steps for a quick and safe repair
of both pneumatic and solid tires:
1. Remove the key from the key switch.
2. Elevate the side of the PMV from which you are
removing the tire. Place wooden blocks under the
frame to elevate the PMV.
3. If you are changing a pneumatic tire, completely
deflate it before removing the wheel.
4. Remove the drive wheel nut and washer from the
axle. See figure 22.
5. Pull the wheel off the axle.
6. Remove the nuts and washers and separate the
rim halves. See figure 23.
7. Remove the old tube from the pneumatic tire and replace it with a new tube or replace the entire
assembly if it is a solid tire.
8. Reassemble the rim halves.
9. Slide the wheel back onto the axle. Make sure that the axle key is in the axle slot. See figure 22.
WARNING! Failure to ensure that the axle key is properly installed into the axle slot
when mounting the wheel can result in electronic brake failure, personal injury, and/or
product damage.
