COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS

After becoming familiar with your power chair’s operation, you may find the need to make some adjustments to increase your comfort, such as seat height and angle, armrest angle, foot platform height and angle, and controller position. If your power chair is equipped with a specialty seat, refer to the information provided in separate manuals. If your power chair is equipped with a medium-back, a high-back, or a reclining seat, refer to the following information.

WARNING! If your power chair was configured by your authorized Pride Provider, please consult your healthcare professional before changing the seat position or making any other adjustment. Some adjustments may degrade your power chair’s performance and safety by changing 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.
