Tire Inflation; Weight Limitations; Incline Information - Pride Mobility Legend 3-Wheel Scooter Owner's Manual

PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK
Get to know the feel of your Legend and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before
each use to make sure your scooter operates smoothly and safely. For details on how to perform these necessary
inspections, see XII. “Care and Maintenance.”
Perform the following inspections prior to using your Legend:
n Check for proper tire inflation (if equipped with pneumatic tires).
n Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
n Check all controller connections to the utility tray. Make sure they are secured properly.
n Check the brakes.
n Check battery charge.
If you discover a problem, contact your authorized Pride Provider for assistance.

TIRE INFLATION

If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked at least once
a week. Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tires and help ensure the smooth operation of your
scooter.
WARNING! It is critically important that 30-35 psi tire pressure be maintained in pneumatic tires at
all times. Failure to maintain 30-35 psi tire pressure in pneumatic tires at all times may result in
catastrophic tire and/or wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to your
scooter.
WARNING! Inflate your scooter drive tires from a regulated air source with an available pressure
gauge. Maximum air pressure for scooter drive tires is 30-35 psi. Inflating your tires from an unregu-
lated air source could overinflate them, resulting in a burst tire and/or personal injury.

WEIGHT LIMITATIONS

Your Legend is rated for a 350-lb. maximum weight limit.
WARNING! Exceeding the weight limit voids your warranty and may result in personal injury and
damage to your scooter. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property damage
resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your Legend. Carrying passengers may result in personal
injury and/or property damage.

INCLINE INFORMATION

More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access.
Some ramps may have turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to have good cornering skills on
your scooter.
n Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
n Take wide swings with your scooter’s front wheel(s) around any tight corners. If you do that, the scooter’s rear
wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get hung up on any railing corners.
n When driving down a ramp, keep the scooter’s speed adjustment set to the slowest speed setting to ensure a
safely controlled descent. See V. “Your Legend.”
n Avoid sudden stops and starts.
