Power Elevating Seat Option

Your power chair may be equipped with a power elevating seat actuator. See figure 15. The power elevating seat is equipped with a speed inhibit system that reduces power chair speed by one-half whenever the seat is elevated more than 1-2 inches. Always check to be sure the speed inhibit system is operating properly before using your power chair, and do not move around in your seat to any great extent when the seat is in the raised position.

The power elevating seat can enhance the capabilities of the power chair in several ways:

νBy elevating the seat, your level of reach is extended to allow more freedom and independence in many environments.

νYou can easily adjust the seat height to any surface to which you want to transfer. The seat swivels 90 degrees to whichever side the joystick is located.

νBy raising your seat, you are closer to the eye level of standing persons. This provides better interaction.

For all the benefits the power elevating seat can provide you, there are limitations.

WARNING! Always fasten the positioning belt when operating the power elevating seat.

WARNING! The power elevating seat is intended for use on a level surface only. Never raise the power elevating seat from its lowest position on an inclined surface. Failure to heed this warning can result in the power chair tipping over and causing injury.

WARNING! Never raise the power elevating seat from its lowest position when operating your power chair on bumpy or uneven surfaces. Failure to heed this warning can result in the power chair tipping over and causing injury.

WARNING! Never raise the power elevating seat while your power chair is in freewheel mode.

Power Elevating Seat Operation

You can control the power elevating seat through either the toggle switch located on the armrest or through the controller. For information on how to raise and lower the power elevating seat through your controller, contact your authorized Pride Provider.

To operate the power elevating seat through toggle switch:

1.Push the toggle switch forward to raise the seat. When you release the toggle switch, the seat will stop. Once the seat reaches its highest extension, the lift action will stop, but you should continue to hear and/or feel the lift motor running. This is because there is a clutch mechanism that allows the motor to continue running after the lift has reached its limit. This clutch works at both the top and bottom extensions of the lift.

NOTE: Do not allow the motor to run more than a few seconds after the mechanism reaches the top or bottom limit.

2.Pull the toggle switch backward to return the seat to its lowest position. When returning to the lowest position, always be sure that the mechanism has reached its lowest limit.

To use the swivel feature, locate the swivel lever under the seat. It is located on the opposite side of the controller. Push down on the lever to rotate the seat in 90° increments.
