Power Elevating Seat Operation
Figure 22. Power Elevating Seat Actuator
If your power chair is equipped with a power elevating seat, you can change the seat height either through the controller or through a toggle switch mounted to one of the armrests.
To operate the power elevating seat:
1.Bring your power chair to a complete stop.
2.Push the toggle switch forward to raise the seat or pull the switch rearward to lower the seat. When you release the switch, the seat will stop.
NOTE: The power elevating seat system has an upper and a lower limit of travel. Once the actuator reaches either one of these limits, you should continue to hear and/or feel the actuator motor running. This is because there is a clutch mechanism that allows the motor to continue running after the actuator has reached its limit. This clutch works at both the top and bottom extensions of the lift.
WARNING! Do not allow the motor to run more than a few seconds after the mechanism reaches the top or bottom limit. This can damage the motor.
The power elevating seat is equipped with a swivel feature that allows the seat to be turned 90 degrees to whichever side the controller is located.
To use the swivel feature:
1.Locate the friction lock lever under the seat. See figure 12.
2.Pull back the friction lock lever to rotate the seat in 90° increments.
3.Pull the friction lock lever forward to lock the seat in place.
WARNING! Do not attempt to drive the power chair with the seat facing to the side. Always return the seat to the forward facing position before operating the power chair.
