Cleaning Instructions
WARNING! Never hose off your power chair or place it in direct contact with water. Your
power chair has a painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped
clean with a damp cloth.
WARNING! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to
become slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.
Wheel Replacement
If you have pneumatic tires and you have a flat tire, you may replace the
tube. If your chair is equipped with a solid tire insert, then you must
replace the entire wheel assembly. Replacement tires, tubes, and wheel
assemblies are readily available through your authorized Pride Provider.
WARNING! To avoid possible injury, be sure that the
controller's power is turned off and the power chair is not in
freewheel mode before performing this procedure.
WARNING! Completely deflate the tire before attempting re-
pair.
Follow these easy steps for a quick and safe repair for both solid and pneumatic tires:
1. Turn off the power to the controller.
2. Set the power chair up on blocks.
3. If you are changing a pneumatic tire, completely deflate it before removing the wheel.
4. Remove the drive wheel nut and washer from the axle. See figure 23.
5. Pull the wheel off the axle.
6. Remove the screws that fasten the two rim halves together.
7. Remove the old tube from the pneumatic tire and replace it with
a new tube or replace the entire wheel assembly if it is a solid tire.
8. Refasten the two rim halves together.
9. Slide the wheel back onto the axle. Make sure the key is in the axle slot.
10. Reinstall the drive wheel nut and washer onto the axle and tighten.
11. Inflate the pneumatic tire to 35 psi (2.4 bar).
12. Remove the power chair from the blocks.
