Manual Freewheel Levers
For convenience, your Pride LX is equipped with two manual freewheel levers that enable you to disengage the
drive motors and maneuver the chair manually, in freewheel mode.
To engage or disengage the drive motors:
1. Locate the two (2) manual freewheel levers on the motors. See figures 18 and 19.
2. Rotate the manual freewheel levers outward to disengage the drive wheels. See figure 18.
3. Rotate the manual freewheel levers rearward to engage the drive wheels. See figure 19.
If a lever is difficult to move in either direction, rock the Pride LX gently back and forth while turning the levers.
The lever should then move to the desired position.
WARNING! Do not use your Pride LX while the drive motors are disengaged unless you are in the presence
of an attendant! Do not disengage the drive motors while your LX is on an incline. The chair could roll down
on its own, causing injury!
CAUTION! It is important to remember that when your Pride LX is in freewheel mode, the braking system
is disengaged.
