Proportional control
Your wheelchair is fitted as
standard with a side mounted
proportional control (Fig. 39) This
supplies a smooth flow of electrical
power to your motors via the
movement of the joystick. Push the
joystick gently forward to increase
forward speed. When the joystick is
at its full extent your powerchair is
travelling at full speed as set by the
speed setting lever on the rear of
the control box. As the joystick is
released the wheelchair will
automatically engage motor brakes
and stop. In front of the joystick is a
green push-button switch which
turns the controller on and off. Do
not use this switch to stop the
wheelchair except in an
emergency.
