COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS

After becoming familiar with your power chair’s operation, you may find the need to make some adjustments to increase your comfort, such as seat height and angle, armrest angle, foot platform height and angle, and controller position. If your power chair is equipped with a Specialty Seat, refer to the information provided in separate manuals. If your power chair is equipped with a medium-back, a high-back, or a reclining seat, refer to the following information.

WARNING! If your power chair was configured by your authorized Pride Provider, please consult your healthcare professional before changing the seat position or making any other adjustment. Some adjustments may degrade your power

chair’s performance and safety by changing its center of gravity.

WARNING! Some power chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry them. Please refer to the specifications table for specific component weights before you disassemble the power chair.

WARNING! Prevent injury. Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.

You may need the following to make comfort adjustments:

Seat Height and Seat Angle Adjustment

The seat is attached to the power base through the UMS. You can change the seat height to one of two positions in 1- in. increments by raising the front and rear trapeze bars. If you raise or lower only one trapeze bar (front or rear), you can also change the seat base angle (dump).

To change the seat height:

1.Turn off the power to the controller.

2.Turn the rear shroud fasteners one-quarter turn in any direction and remove the rear shroud cover. See figure 6.

3.Disconnect the controller connectors from the power pod.

4.Flip up the seat latch safety. See figure 12.

5.Squeeze the seat latch and release the seat from the front trapeze bar.

6.Slide the seat forward and remove it from the power base.

7.Loosen the screws that attach the trapeze bars to the seat posts. See figure 12A.

8.Remove the retaining clips that secure the seat posts to the power base. See figure 12A.

9.Move the trapeze bars up or down to the desired height.

NOTE: Change the seat dump by raising or lowering only one set of towers (front or back.)
