ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
The electrical components are located either on or inside the power base. The main circuit breaker is
located on the front of the power base. The power module is located under the front cover. (See gure
7).
Main Circuit Breaker:
The main circuit breaker is a safety feature built into your power chair. When the baeries and the
motors are heavily strained(e.g., from excessive loads), the main circuit breaker trips to prevent
damage to the motors and the electronics. If the circuit trips, allow your power chair to “rest” for
approximately one minute. Next, push in the circuit breaker button, turn on the controller, and
continue normal operation. If the main circuit breaker continues to trip repeatedly, contact your
Authorized Freerider Agent.
Power Module:
Provides connecon between the controller and the motors and baeries.

MANUAL FREEWHEEL LEVERS
Your power chair has a manual freewheel lever on each motor. Manual freewheel levers enable you to
disengage the drive motors from the gearboxes and maneuver 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 engage or disengage the drive motors:
1. Turn backward to engage the drive motors (drive mode).
2. Turn inward to disengage the drive motors (freewheel mode).(See gure 8).
If a lever is dicult to move in either direcon, slightly rock the power chair back and forth. The lever
should then move to the desired posion.
WARNING!
Do not use the freewheel lever handles as e-down points to secure this product.
DISASSEMBLY AN D A S SEMBLY
INITIAL ASSEMBLY
Your power chair may require some assembly either before inial use or aer transportaon.
Seat Installaon
It may be necessary to install the seat either prior to inial operaon or aer transporng your power
chair.
To install the seat:
1. Make sure the power chair is in drive mode. Both manual gear levers are backward. (See gure 9).
