MANUAL FREEWHEEL LEVERS
For convenience, your Jet 12 is equipped with two (2) manual freewheel levers located on the front of your
Jet 12. These levers allow you to disengage the drive motors and maneuver the chair manually.
To engage or disengage the drive motors:
1. Locate the manual freewheel levers. See figure 21.
2. Hold the manual freewheel lever as shown in figure 26. Rotate each lever upward, push backward,
then rotate downward to disengage the drive motor and place the power chair in freewheel mode. See
figure 27.
3. Rotate each lever upward, pull forward, then rotate downward to engage the drive motor. See figure
If a lever is difficult to move in either direction, rock the
Jet 12 gently back and forth while turning the levers. The
lever should then move to the desired position.
WARNING! Do not use your power chair while the
drive motors are disengaged unless you are in
the presence of an attendant. Do not disengage
the drive motors when your power chair is on an
incline. The chair could roll odwn on its own,
causing injury!
CAUTION!
when your power chair is in freewheel mode, the
electronic braking system is disengaged.
