IV. YOUR SCOOTER
Tiller Console Fuses
These fuses help protect your scooter’s front lighting, turn
indicators, and key switch console systems from receiving
an overload of electrical current. The fuses used in your
scooter are the same type used in automobiles. See figure
9. See X. “Care and Maintenance” for fuse replacement.
Handbrake Lever (Not Shown)
Your scooter may be equipped with a handbrake lever
located on the tiller handle. This lever provides you with
additional stopping power. Release the throttle control lever
and squeeze the handbrake lever to come to a complete
stop.
NOTE: If you do not release the throttle control
lever before using the handbrake, your scooter may
not come to a complete stop.
NOTE: The handbrake lever may require periodic
adjustment to maintain proper operation. Contact
your authorised Pride Dealer for more information.
REAR SECTION
The batteries (not shown), the main circuit breaker (reset
button), the manual freewheel lever, the anti-tip wheels,
and the motor/transaxle assembly (not shown) are located

Anti-Tip Wheels
The anti-tip wheels are an integral and important safety feature designed to help prevent your scooter from tipping
rearward on an incline. They are bolted to the frame at the rearmost part of your scooter.
WARNING! Do not remove the anti-tip wheels or modify your scooter in any way that is not
authorized by Pride.
WARNING! The anti-tip wheels may interfere with the smooth transition of your scooter
when negotiating obstacles.
Batteries (Not Shown)
The batteries store electrical energy that powers your scooter. See V. “Batteries and Charging ” for information on
how to charge your scooter batteries.
