Care And Maintenance - Pride Mobility Maxima SC900 Owner's Manual

X I I .
Your scooter requires a minimal amount of care and maintenance. If you do not feel confident in your
ability to perform the maintenance listed below, you may schedule inspection and maintenance at your
authorized Pride Provider. The following areas require periodic inspection and/or care and maintenance.
TIRE PRESSURE
n If equipped with pneumatic tires, always maintain a proper tire pressure of 30-35 psi in each tire.
WARNING! Do not exceed 30-35 psi in your scooter’s tires. Overinflating a tire can cause
it to explode, possibly resulting in personal injury or damage to your scooter.
n Regularly inspect your scooter’s tires for signs of wear.
EXTERIOR SURFACES
Bumpers, tires, trim, and the tiller boot can benefit from an occasional application of rubber or vinyl conditioner.
WARNING! Do not use a rubber or vinyl conditioner on the scooter’s vinyl seat or tire
tread; they will become dangerously slippery.
BATTERY TERMINAL CONNECTIONS
n Make certain that the terminal connections remain tight and uncorroded.
n The batteries must sit flat in the battery wells.
n The battery terminals should face the rear of the scooter.
WIRING HARNESSES
n Regularly check all wiring connections.
n Regularly check all wiring insulation, including the charger power cord, for wear or damage.
n Have your authorized Pride Provider repair or replace any damaged connector, connection, or insula-
tion that you find before using your scooter again.
ABS PLASTIC SHROUDS
n The front tiller shroud, front shroud, and the rear shroud are formed from durable ABS plastic and are
coated with an advanced formula urethane paint.
n A light application of car wax will help the shrouds retain their high gloss.
AXLE BEARINGS AND THE MOTOR/TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY
These items are all prelubricated, sealed, and require no subsequent lubrication.
MOTOR BRUSHES
The motor brushes are housed inside of the motor transaxle/assembly. They should be inspected periodi-
cally for wear by your authorized Pride Provider.
CONSOLE, CHARGER, AND REAR ELECTRONICS MODULE
n Keep these areas free of moisture.
n Allow these areas to dry thoroughly if they have been exposed to moisture before operating your scooter
again.
