Part No. 1104849 79 3G Storm Series® Wheelchairs
ADJUSTING LIMIT SWITCH (FIGURE 3)
NOTE: The following section is for high back van seat model wheelchairs only.
WARNING
NEVER operate the wheelchair while in any recline position over 114° RELATIVE
TO THE SEAT FRAME. If the limit switch does not stop the wheelchair from
operating in a recline position greater than 114° RELATIVE TO THE SEAT
FRAME, DO NOT operate the wheelchair. Adjust the limit switch BEFORE using
the wheelchair, otherwise injury or damage can occur.
1. Place the wheelchair on a level surface.
2. Recline the van seat back to a 24o to achieve the 114o angle relative to the seat
frame. Refer to ADJUSTING VAN SEAT in SECTION 6 of the Owner’s Manual, part
number 1104782 or 1123757.
NOTE: The van seat frame is at a 5o angle relative to the ground. When the back angle is
adjusted to 114o relative to the seat, it will measure 61o relative to the ground.
NOTE: To determine 114o back angle relative to the seat frame, place a magnetic protractor
(available at any hardware store) on the back as shown in FIGURE 2 and adjust the back until
the magnetic protractor reads 61o.
3. Turn the wheelchair power switch on the joystick to the ON position.
NOTE: The wheelchair should not operate.
4. IF wheelchair operates, proceed to the following steps to adjust the actuator on the
upper limit switch bracket:
A. Fully recline the back. Refer to ADJUSTING VAN SEAT in SECTION 6 of the Owner’s
Manual, part number 1104782 or 1123757.
NOTE: This will make access to the limit switch easier.
