II. SAFETY
GENERAL
Your Legend Classic is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement de ice designed to increase mobility. Pride pro ides an
extensi e ariety of products to best fit the indi idual needs of the scooter user. Please be aware that the final
selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of scooter to be used is the responsibility of the scooter user
who is capable of making such a decision and his/her healthcare professional (i.e., medical doctor, physical thera-
pist, etc.).
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility de ice expert has properly fitted the
scooter to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare professional and/or the authorised Pride pro ider in
the instruction process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the scooter user will need to practice
operating the scooter in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family member
or care professional specially trained in assisting a scooter user in arious daily li ing acti ities.
As you begin using your scooter during daily acti ities, you will probably encounter situations in which you will
need some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneu er
through doorways, on and off lifts, up and down ramps, and o er moderate terrain.
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help the user become accustomed to
operating the Legend Classic safely.
MODIFICATIONS
Pride has designed and engineered your Legend Classic to pro ide maximum mobility and utility. A wide range of
accessories is a ailable from your authorised Pride pro ider to further customize your scooter to better suit your
needs and/or preferences. Howe er, under no circumstances should you modify, add, remo e, or disable any
feature, part, or function of your Legend Classic.
WARNING! Do not modify your scooter in any way not authorised by Pride. Unauthorised modifica-
tions may result in personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.
WARNING! Do not operate your new scooter for the first time without completely reading and
understanding this owners manual.
REMOVABLE PARTS
WARNING! Do not attempt to lift or move your scooter by any of its removable parts. Personal injury
and damage to the scooter may result.

II. SAFETY
PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK
Get to know the feel of your Legend Classic and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety
check before each use to make sure your scooter operates smoothly and safely. For details on how to perform
these necessary inspections, see XI. Care and Maintenance.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your Legend Classic:
nCheck for proper tyre inflation (if equipped with pneumatic tyres).
nCheck all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
nCheck all harness connections (battery, front-to-rear). Make sure they are secured properly.
nCheck the brakes.
nCheck battery charge.
If you disco er a problem, contact your authorised Pride pro ider for assistance.
INCLINE INFORMATION
More and more buildings ha e ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access.
Some ramps may ha e turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to ha e good cornering skills on
your scooter.
nProceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
nTake wide swings with your scooters front wheel(s) around any tight corners. If you do that, the scooters rear
wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get hung up on any railing corners.
nWhen dri ing down a ramp, keep the scooters speed adjustment set to the slowest speed setting to ensure a
safely controlled descent. See IV. Your Legend Classic.
nA oid sudden stops and starts.
WARNING! Exceeding the weight limit voids your warranty and may result in personal injury and
damage to your scooter. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property damage
resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your Legend Classic. Carrying passengers may result in
personal injury and/or property damage.
WEIGHT LIMITATIONS
Your Legend Classic is rated for a 159 kg, 25 stone (350-lb.) maximum weight limit.
TYRE INFLATION
If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tyres, you should check or ha e the air pressure checked at least once
a week. Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tyres and help ensure the smooth operation of your
scooter.
WARNING! It is critically important that 30-35 psi (2-2.5 bar) tyre pressure be maintained in pneu-
matic tyres at all times. Failure to maintain 30-35 psi (2-2.5 bar) tyre pressure in pneumatic tyres at
all times may result in catastrophic tyre and/or wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or
damage to your scooter.
WARNING! Inflate your scooter drive tyres from a regulated air source with an available pressure
gauge. Maximum air pressure for scooter drive tyres is 30-35 psi (2-2.5 bar). Inflating your tyres from
an unregulated air source could overinflate them, resulting in a burst tyre and/or personal injury.

II. SAFETY
When climbing an incline, try to keep your scooter mo ing. If you must stop, start up again slowly, and then
accelerate cautiously. When dri ing down an incline, do so by setting the speed adjustment dial to the slowest
setting and dri ing in the forward direction only. If your scooter starts to mo e down the incline faster than you
anticipated or desired, allow it to come to a complete stop by releasing the throttle control le er. Then push the
throttle control le er forward slightly to ensure a safely controlled descent.
Other inclines may be natural or, if man-made, not designed specifically for scooters. Figures 1 and 1A illustrate
your scooters stability and its ability to climb grades under arious weight loads and under controlled testing
conditions.
These tests were conducted with the scooters seat in the highest position and adjusted rearward on the seat base
to its farthest rearward position. Use this information as a guideline. Your scooters ability to tra el up inclines is
affected by your weight, your scooters speed, your angle of approach to the incline, and your scooter setup.
WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than what is shown in figures 1 and 1A
may put your scooter in an unstable position and cause it to tip, resulting in personal injury.
WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of the incline.
Drive your scooter straight up the incline. his greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or a fall.
Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.
WARNING! You should not travel up or down a potentially hazardous incline (i.e., areas covered
with snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves).
WARNING! When on any sort of an incline or decline, never place the scooter in freewheel mode
while seated on it or standing next to it.

CORNERING INFORMATION
Excessi ely high cornering speeds can create the possibility of tipping. Factors which affect the possibility of
tipping include, but are not limited to, cornering speed, steering angle (how sharply you are turning), une en road
surfaces, inclined road surfaces, riding from an area of low traction to an area of high traction (such as passing from
a grassy area to a pa ed area  especially at high speed while turning), and abrupt directional changes. High
cornering speeds are not recommended. If you feel that you may tip o er in a corner, reduce your speed and
steering angle (i.e., lessen the sharpness of the turn) to pre ent your scooter from tipping.
WARNING! When cornering sharply, reduce your speed. When using your scooter at higher speeds,
do not corner sharply. his greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or fall. o avoid personal injury or
property damage, always exercise common sense when cornering.
II. SAFETY
FIGURE 2A. INCREASED STABILITY DRIVING POSITION
FIGURE 2. NORMAL DRIVING POSITION
When you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. See figures 2 and 2A. This shifts the center of gra ity of
you and your scooter toward the front of the scooter for impro ed stability.
WARNING! Do not exceed the incline guidelines or any other specifications presented in this
manual.
BRAKING INFORMATION
Your scooter is equipped with two powerful brake systems:
1. Regenerati e: Uses electricity to rapidly slow the ehicle when the throttle control le er returns to the center/
stop position.
2. Disc Park Brake: Acti ates mechanically after regenerati e braking slows the ehicle to near stop, or when
power is remo ed from the system for any reason.
