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, armrest width, foot platform depth, and controller position. Use the steps below to make comfort adjustments.

WARNING! If your power chair was configured by an authorized Pride Provider, please consult the authorized Pride Provider 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! Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.

Quick Release Fasteners

The quick release fastener removes excess play in the seat pedestal. See figure 10. The quick release fastener consists of a bolt, a lever, and a nut. See figure 11. The lever has a cam on the end that allows it to clamp into place. The quick release fastener has two states: clamped and unclamped. When the lever is open, the quick release fastener is unclamped. When the lever is closed, the quick release fas- tener is clamped.

To clamp the quick release fastener:

1.Make sure the lever is in the open position.

2.Turn the nut clockwise until it is snug.

3.Rotate the lever until it is in the fully closed position.

NOTE: If the lever will not rotate to the fully closed position, then turn the nut counterclockwise one-quar- ter or one-half turn.
