Seat Rotation

The power elevating seat is equipped with a swivel feature that allows the seat to be turned 90 degrees to whichever side the controller is located.

To use the swivel feature:

1.Locate the friction lock lever under the seat. See figure 5.

2.Pull back on the friction lock lever and rotate the seat 90° to whichever side the controller is located.

3.Push the friction lock lever forward to lock the seat in place.

WARNING! Do not attempt to drive the power chair with the seat facing to the side. Always return the seat to the forward facing position before operating the power chair.

Anti-Tip Wheels

The anti-tip wheels are designed to give your power chair increased stability on rough surfaces. The anti-tip wheels are preset at the factory for smooth surfaces or indoor use only. If you plan on using your power chair on rough sur- faces, it may be necessary to adjust the anti-tip wheels to better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels may need ad- justment if the following occurs:

!When coming to a stop, your power chair tips forward excessively.

!The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.

WARNING! Consult your authorized Pride Provider before attempting to change the anti-tip wheel height! Changing the anti-tip wheel height affects handling under accel- eration!

Figure 26. Anti-Tip Wheel Assembly

WARNING! The higher you raise the anti-tip wheels, the more you increase your power chair’s tendency to tilt forward while decelerating. You can compensate for this by having your authorized Pride Provider make a small adjustment to the pre-programmed deceleration setting in the controller or by moving the seat assembly farther to the back of your power chair.

PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti-tip wheels.

NOTE: Each drive tire must be inflated to 35 psi (2.4 bar) if equipped with pneumatic tires. The user must also be seated in the power chair in order to properly adjust the anti-tip wheels.

To adjust the anti-tip wheels:

1.Loosen bolt A. See figure 26.

2.Remove bolt B.

3.Raise or lower the anti-tip wheel. Each hole is 0.50-in. (1.27 cm) apart.

4.Reinstall bolt B.

5.Tighten boltA.

6.Raise or lower the other anti-tip wheel so that it is at the same height.
