Seat Installation
It may be necessary to install the seat either prior
to initial operation or after transporting your
power chair. Contour seats are attached to the
power base with the Universal Mounting System
(UMS). The UMS consists of universal parts that
may be attached to the seat, regardless of seat
width or seat depth. The two main components are
aluminum extrusions mounted to the seat base.
These extrusions attach to a pair of trapeze bars
that are mounted to the power base. See figure 6.
NOTE: If your power chair is equipped with a
Synergy Seat, refer to the information provided
in separate manuals.
WARNING! Do not pick up the seat
frame by the armrests. They are
free to pivot, and you may lose
control of the seat if they do so.
To install the seat:
1. Tilt the seat back and slide the rear extrusion
onto the rear trapeze bar. See figure 6.
2. Lower the front extrusion onto the front tra-
peze bar until the seat locks into place.
3. Flip the seat latch safety down.
WARNING! Make sure the seat
latch safety is flipped down before
using your power chair.
4. Install the controller and route the harness to
the back of the seat. See figures 7.
MANDATORY! Prevent controller
harness damage! Avoid routing
the controller harness on the
outside of the armrest pad. Route
the harness under the armrest or
toward the inside of the armrest
pad. Use correct tie-down points
for controller harness to prevent
the harness from getting caught in
the drive tires, pinched in the seat
frame, or damaged when passing
through doorways.
5. Plug the controller connector into the front of
the power base. See figure 3.
6. Secure the controller harness to the armrest
receiver with wire ties. See figure 7.
IV. ASSEMBLY
NOTE: Any nylon insert lock nut removed during the disassembly or adjustment of the power chair must be
replaced with a new nylon insert lock nut. Nylon insert lock nuts should not be reused as it may cause damage
to the nylon insert, resulting in a less secure fit. Replacement nylon insert lock nuts are available at local
hardware stores or by contacting your authorized Pride Provider.
