SEAT INSTALLATION

It may be necessary to install the seat either prior to initial operation or after transporting your power chair. Most seats are attached to the power base with the Universal Mounting System (UMS). The UMS consists of universal parts that may be attached to any medium-back or high-back 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.

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, resulting in personal injury or damage to the chair.

To install the seat:

1.Set the trapeze bars to the desired height. To change the trapeze bar height, see VI. “Comfort Adjustments.”

2.Tilt the seat back, and slide the rear extrusion onto the rear trapeze bar. See figure 9.

3.Lower the front extrusion onto the front trapeze bar until the seat locks into place.

4.Flip the seat latch safety down. See figure 10.

WARNING! Make sure the seat latch safety is flipped down before using your power chair.

5.Install the controller into one of the armrests. See VI. “ComfortAdjustments.”

6.Turn the rear shroud fasteners one-quarter turn in any direction.

7.Remove the rear shroud.

8.Plug the motor connectors, the charger inhibit connector, and the battery connector into the power pod. See figure 6.

9.Reinstall the rear shroud. Turn the rear shroud fasteners one-quarter turn in any direction.

10.Route the controller cable so that it cannot be pinched in the seat hinge.

11.Secure the controller cable to the armrest receiver with one or more wire ties.
