Manual Freewheel Levers
Your power chair has a manual freewheel lever on each motor. Manual freewheel levers enable you to disengage the drive
motors and manoeuvre the chair manually.
WARNING! Do not use the power chair while the drive motors are disengaged! Do not
disengage the drive motors when the power chair is on an incline or decline, as the
unit could roll on its own! Only engage the freewheel mode when on a level surface.
WARNING! It is important to remember that when your power chair is in freewheel
mode, the braking system is disengaged.
To operate the manual freewheel levers:
1. Locate the lever on top of each motor.
2. Pull up both manual freewheel levers to engage the motors (drive mode). See figure 8.
3. Push down both manual freewheel levers to disengage the motors (freewheel mode). See figure 9.
If the lever is difficult to move in either direction, slightly rock the power chair back and forth. The lever should then move
to the desired position.
WARNING! Do not use the freewheel lever handles as tie-down points to secure this product.

Transit Securement System (Optional)
If your power chair is equipped with a transit securement
system, it is equipped with manufacturer-installed front and
rear securement brackets and positioning belt anchoring
brackets. See figure 10. Refer to the supplement provided
with your power chair for information on how to use the
transit securement system.
