Freewheel Levers - Pride Mobility JET1 Owner's Manual

FREEWHEEL LEVERS

For your convenience, your Jet 1 is equipped with two freewheel levers. See figures 5 and 6. These levers allow
you to disengage the drive motors and maneuver the chair manually.
WARNING! Do not use your Jet 1 while the drive motors are disengaged unless you are in the
presence of an attendant! Do not disengage the drive motors when your Jet 1 is on an incline.
The chair could roll down on its own, causing injury!
To engage or disengage the freewheel feature:
1. Turn the freewheel levers inward to disengage the drive motors. See figure 5.
2. Turn the freewheel levers outward, to engage the drive motors. See figure 6.
CAUTION! It is important to remember that when your Jet 1 is in freewheel mode, the braking
system is disengaged.
If a lever is difficult to move in either direction, rock your Jet 1 back and forth slightly. The lever should then move
to the desired position.
