IX. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WHEEL REPLACEMENT
If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tires and
you have a flat tire, you can have the tube replaced.
If your scooter 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 scooter.
WARNING! Wheels on your scooter
should only be serviced/replaced by
an authorized Pride Provider or
qualified technician.
WARNING! Be sure that the key is
removed from the key switch and the
scooter is not in freewheel mode
before performing this procedure.
Follow these easy steps for a quick and safe repair
for solid tires:
1. Remove the key from the key switch.
Figure 24. Solid Tire Wheel Removal
2. Elevate the side of the scooter of which you are removing the tire. Place wooden blocks under the
frame to elevate the scooter.
3. Remove the drive wheel nut and washer from the axle. See figure 24.
4. Pull the wheel off the axle.
5. Slide the new wheel back onto the axle.
WARNING! Ensure that the axle key is properly installed into the axle slot when
mounting the wheel. If not installed securely, the braking system is disengaged which
may cause personal injury and/or product damage may result.
6. Reinstall the drive wheel nut and washer onto the axle and tighten.
WARNING! Make sure that both the nut and washer are reinstalled and tightened
properly.
7. Remove the blocks from beneath the scooter.
ABS PLASTIC SHROUDS
The front tiller shroud, front shroud, and the rear shroud are formed from durable ABS plastic and are
coated with an advanced formula urethane paint.
A light application of car wax will help the shrouds retain their high gloss.
AXLE BEARINGS AND THE MOTOR/TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY
These items are all prelubricated, sealed, and require no subsequent lubrication.
MOTOR BRUSHES
The motor brushes are housed inside of the motor transaxle/assembly. They should be inspected periodi-
cally for wear by your authorized Pride Provider.
CONSOLE, CHARGER, AND REAR ELECTRONICS
Keep these areas free of moisture.
Allow these areas to dry thoroughly if they have been exposed to moisture before operating your
