IV. OPERATION
WARNING! For lift systems equipped with
the automatic lock-down arm, do not
attempt to adjust the pressure of the
arm. This feature has been configured
by your authorized Pride Provider to meet
your needs and requires no further
adjustment.
WARNING! If your scooter is equipped
with pneumatic drive tires, make sure
the tires are inflated to the recommended
pressure labeled on the tire sidewall. This
will ensure that the scooter is at the
correct deck height for proper lock-down
arm positioning.
Figure 12. Unlocking the Retractable Tie-down
Strap
WARNING! Never attempt to secure the
tie-down straps over the seatback or
armrests of a power chair.
! Once each strap is secured in the proper position,
squeeze together the release and adjustment levers
and simultaneously bring both levers rearward to their
original positions. See figures 11 and 14. This will
lock the tie-down strap.
! To tighten the strap, rotate only the adjustment lever
forward and rearward in a ratcheting motion until
the tie-down strap reaches an adequate level of re-
sistance for mobility device securement.

WARNING! Never leave a mobility device
in manual freewheel mode during lift
system transport, as the mobility device
could roll.
5. Secure the mobility device to the platform using either
the retractable tie-down straps (see figure 11) for power
chairs or the automatic lock-down arm for scooters.
! Squeeze together the release and adjustment levers on
the retractable tie-down strap and simultaneously bring
both levers forward to a 90-degree position until they
“click” into place. See figures 11 and 12. This will un-
lock the tie-down strap.
! Pull the strap out and secure it to the chair restraint
tab. See figure 13.
NOTE: Inspect the tie-down straps before each use to
ensure there are no signs of fraying or wear. Ensure
that the mobility device is secured properly before trans-
port. Pride is not liable for damage or loss resulting
from improper securing of a mobility device.
