COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS

After you have become familiar with your power chair’s opera- tion, you may find the need to adjust the seat. There are some adjustments you can make to increase your comfort such as seat height and angle, armrest height and angle, footrest height and angle, and controller position.

WARNING! If your power chair was configured at your authorized Pride Provider, please consult your healthcare professional before changing the seat position or making any other adjust- ment. Some adjustments may degrade you power chair’s performance and safety by chang- ing its center of gravity.

WARNING! Some power chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry them. Please refer to the specifications table for specific component weights before you disassemble the power chair.

WARNING! Prevent injury. Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.
