Scooterpac Atom Power Chair Brakes

Postby mike0liver » 06 Aug 2025, 16:48

I have just bought a new Scooterpac Atom Power Chair and can't find out how to put the brakes in manual mode so I can push the chair by hand. Can anyone help?

Looks like mine... Try holding the throttle then flipping the controller switch to off at the same time.

Thanks for the response but I think we're at cross-purposes. My chair doesn't boast a throttle. The speed and direction I travel is dependent on a joystick.

Yeah I meant move the joystick any direction to disengage the brakes then flip the switch off.

Freewheel/Manual Mode
To enable this mode, turn off
the powerchair by pressing the
power button. Press the
Freewheel button. The red LED
will activate. The powerchair
can now be manually pushed.
To re-enable the powered
mode, press the power button.

That chair is featherweight. Even with batteries fitted. As they are the same tiny 5Ah as my laptop and lithium. Are you sure its not easier just to lift it? Shouldnt be much harder than 2 fingers. 10 or 12kg?

Thanks for the manual extract and lifting suggestion, folks. I'll give them both a try in the next day or so.
